Welsh Backs

Juliet Gamlin

"I enjoy regular gym activity as well as horse riding and golf, and try to keep as active as possible."

Juliet Gamlin (42) is originally from London but now lives in Wales. She has suffered from back pain for 10 years.

"The best pain relief for me is taking Ibuprofen, but I have also had to visit the physio as well as the hospital for an MRI scan."

Juliet has a highly demanding and responsible job as an Engineer, and cannot afford to take time off to rest. In any case, she is well aware that keeping active can help to aid her recovery:

"I am aware that with back pain movement is required as part of rehabilitation but, at times, it's difficult as the pain has been so severe. I enjoy regular gym activity as well as horse riding and golf, and try to keep as active as possible."

Iwan Roberts (35) originally from Bangor has suffered from back pain on and off for 14 years.
Just carrying on with your usual activity will do the world of good.
