Do something. Move. Walk. Stretch.
Pain sufferers benefit when they do
something. No exercising is a risk for worsening
pain, both pain in the body and pain in the mind in the form of depression.
Wilson Family Chiropractic takes care of many Millville back pain
patients in pain who also deal with depression. Wilson Family Chiropractic
also understands that when our Millville
chiropractic patients do something, they get better in body and
mind.
NO EXERCISE RAISES RISK OF STENOSIS PROGRESSION
Spinal stenosis is a common diagnosis. It is
the decrease of the spinal canal area as a result of degeneration. A new study reported
that risk of spinal stenosis progression is greater for those who
had spondylolisthesis, experienced pain (in leg and/or back) when
walking, and more severe stenosis. The lack of therapeutic exercise
was also found to a risk factor for the progression
of spinal stenosis. (1) Back pain sufferers like those with spinal
stenosis and spondylolisthesis must exercise! Wilson Family Chiropractic helps each of our chiropractic patients find what exercise fits them.
EXERCISE ENHANCES FUNCTION
Nonspecific low back pain sufferers enhanced
their functional disability level more with
stabilization and/or McKenzie exercises than with conventional exercise
programs. (2) Note though that exercise did help, conventional or not!
EXERCISE IMPROVES DEPRESSION
For many back pain sufferers with specific or non-specific
back pain, chronic or not, may well describe themselves as
a little blue when their back pain hangs around longer
than desired. It’s not unusual. Once more,
exercise helps! Another study reported that exercise
(low dose or moderate-dose strength and conditioning) helped reduce
depressive symptoms in adults with chronic low back pain. Blending
exercise and manual therapy was a bonus! (3) Wilson Family Chiropractic brings
in as many beneficial approaches to back pain relief as
possible to help our Millville back pain patients! The Cox® Technic System
of Spine Pain Management is one of those approaches.
