I haven't been able to reproduce the symptom at that site.
E.g. (surprisingly) Back implemented by the browser works.

Often you have to rely on the site's UI providing a Back button
(e.g. in the page, implemented using Javascript). I even saw
an example of that on one of the pages I got. Do the pages
which give you the problem symptom have a Back button in them?
If so, use them. Alternatively, use any other link in the page which
effects the same thing. In fact, depending on how a site is designed
using its Back button will give you better functionality (e.g. better
potential for saved values and field focus) than by just using the
browser's Back function.

Another thing that works particularly well on search sites (but won't
work on this site because the links seem to be mostly implemented
by Javascript functions) is to open the link in a new tab or window,
e.g. hold down a Ctrl- key or a Shift- key when clicking on a link
when you know that you want to return to the launching page.
In that case you achieve the same effect of Back by closing
the tab or window.
