Most people go to the hospital because they’re in pain. Well, one hospital in Australia is helping people prevent pain from happening in the future — through functional fitness.

CrossFit Neuro in Brisbane is part of the Back Pain Centre at St. Andrew’s War Memorial Hospital. It’s the brainchild of Joanne and David Johnson. Dr. Johnson is a neurosurgeon and athlete, and he had a goal of addressing the cause of back pain — not just the symptoms. Visitors go through three stages: the neurosurgery practice, the rehab center, and finally, the box. The coaches at CrossFit Neuro are both certified trainers and healthcare professionals.

The best part? It’s working. They’ve hit capacity and are opening a second location in the coming months.

Amazing.
