"If you don't keep going, you're gonna die." How’s that for a
title to a paper?! Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. was even taken back a bit,
but it’s true. No matter your age, your pain, your life plan, we all
have to keep moving forward! This is so true
for middle- to older-age Auburn back and neck pain sufferers. Fortunately,
Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. is here to help.
ANTI-AGING EXERCISE BENEFITS
We all start considering anti-aging
benefits at a certain age! One set of researchers wrote
that regular exercise has multi-system anti-aging effects and called
for more research to acquire knowledge of just how molecular
mediators of exercise benefits function in older folks rather
than just turning to pharmaceuticals. (1) Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. enthusiastically agrees! Walking is great!
This an important message for all Auburn pain
sufferers!
BENEFICIAL DAILY EXERCISE STEPS
Take a walking stroll each day with a goal of
7000 steps. Why? Research. 2,110 black and white men and women and their
steps-per-day counts were followed. They sported
an accelerometer from 2005 to 2006 and then were monitored for a
mean of 10.8 years. Their stats were examined in 2020 and 2021
to see what, if any, association was found between steps-per-day
and all-mortality death risk. This study was part of the larger
CARDIA (Coronary Artery Risk Development in Young Adults) study.
Steps-taken-per-day were described as “low” (less than 7000),
“moderate” (7000-9999) and “high” (more than 10,000). Stepping intensity –
stepping rate – played a role, too. Moderate/high step rate was associated
with a decreased risk of mortality in black and
white women and men in middle-age who took 7000 steps or more a
day compared with those who took less. (2) Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. witnesses
how walking helps – 7000 steps or not – and urges
Auburn chiropractic patients to walk what
they can. Any walk works!
EXERCISE HELPS COPING WITH PAIN

with chronic low back pain? Some of the things people may express are these:
- I feel helpless because nothing works.
