Dear patient.
Greetings from health care magic!!! I am Dr Thakker and shall be answering your question.

Back strengthening exercises usually increase the back muscle tone within 2 weeks time. It also depends on the type of exercise, duration and the correct technique. I would advice you to visit a physiotherapist to learn back extension exercises. If you are gym going, I am sure you would have access to the back extension machine, rowing exercised and traps pull down.



I hope this helps you out. If you have any more questions, please do not hesitate to write back to me.

Yours sincerely,
Dr Thakker.
