Walk Your Way to a Healthier Back – 100 Minutes a Day Reduces Chronic Back Pain

Walk Your Way to a Healthier Back – 100 Minutes a Day Reduces Chronic Back Pain

Recent research published in JAMA Network Open (Haddadj et al., 2025) highlights the benefits of daily walking for spine health. Walking 100 minutes per day significantly reduces the risk of chronic low back pain by approximately 23%.

This finding emphasizes the importance of consistent, moderate physical activity over intensity alone.

At Co Recare Physio Clinic, we recommend integrating walking routines with posture awareness and core strengthening exercises to maximize back health.

📌 Practical tip: Break your walking into shorter sessions throughout the day to achieve 100 minutes without fatigue."
