Back problems & gym....?

[james]

Last year it was painful for me to even look at gym equipments but I was getting weak because of lack of movement.

I hired a trainer and started mild weight training. I am lucky that my trainer is very careful and takes care of my back. I improved my plank time as well as strengthened my upper back.

Again, I am lucky that my trainer is good. He CAREFULLY watches my tiniest movement. He picks exercises carefully and constantly touches my abs and back to make sure I have squeezed them. If one day I don't feel well, he gives me mild exercise.

It costs me a fortune though.

Does anybody know if I can claim it as a medical treatment? (it will be tax deductible)
