This is a frequent fear-avoidance comment from a Auburn back pain sufferer. It's natural! Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. hears it all the time, but your Auburn chiropractor recommends you to exercise, to move, to see that you can still do some normal day to day activities.

picture of man walking on treadmillA riveting study looked at patients with low back pain who either followed a protocol of pilates (specific trunk exercise) or stationary bike cycling for 8 weeks. The follow-up results at 6 months showed no meaningful variance between the patients who did the bike or the pilates; both groups showed improvement. At 8-weeks, disability was decidedly lower in the pilates group compared to the bike group. Pain was notedly lower for the pilates group participants. Fear-avoidance behaviors were less at 8 weeks for the pilates group and at 6 months for the exercise bike group. Bottomline from the researchers: movement and exercise help. (1) Pick some form of exercise - pilates, at-home exercise, walking, treadmill, yoga - and keep at it. It can't help if you don't do it.
