Back pain slows life. Back pain disables. Back pain eases
with exercise and care. 50% relief is a good outcome in the world of back pain relief be it with exercise or surgery or non-surgical care like chiropractic. In the non-surgical realm, combining non-surgical, chiropractic care at Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. with Cox Technic and exercise even raises the odds for even more back pain relief. In this article, Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. is sharing how exercise can really be of value to our Auburn chiropractic patients. Exercise is something our Auburn back pain patients can control; you can choose to exercise or not. Choosing to exercise just boosts your chance of short term and long term relief.
One research team states in their report that
“The
most effective intervention [for back pain] is exercise, with higher benefits
in terms of pain and function.” (1) That's a bold statement though hopeful for Auburn back pain sufferers. Experience of your Auburn chiropractor allows confidence that
back pain relief is possible with a multi-prong approach to care. Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. offers
chiropractic care’s multi-prong approach of
spinal manipulation,
exercise,
nutrition, physiological therapeutics and more. Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. helps Auburn back pain sufferers regain some
control over their back pain by exercising.
Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. will hear our Auburn patients say “Exercise takes so much time.” Some exercises take very little time. Some exercises have multiple
benefits. Learn those, and take less time to exercise. Take for example running
in place – any time, any place. It strengthens the abdominal muscles which
support the spine. (2) The erector spinae muscles in the spine are important in
supporting the spine, too. Ironically, though, the specific-targeting back extension
exercises don’t activate the upper lumbar erector spinae or the lumbosacral
erector spinae as well as simple running. (3) Auburn back pain
patients are in luck then. A little running is effective in multiple ways.
Now, Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. knows that chronic non-specific low back
pain influences trunk and lower limb movement (like the knee joint). (4) Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. therefore reminds our
Auburn low back pain patients to be careful when walking and/or
running but to keep moving.
If you’re still a skeptical
Auburn back pain sufferer about exercise, consider that exercise
improves pain and function and relieves depression and anxiety related to back
pain. (1) Depression is a real issue when you have back pain. Sometimes, pain keeps you, our
Auburn back pain patient, from being you and doing what you
normally do due to pain or due to fear of pain. Researchers report that
exercise done properly helps heal the body and ease the mind!
One last note, especially if you are not a big exercise fan,
is that even elite athletes like marathon runners get back pain. As a matter of
fact, half of runners in a half marathon reported back pain. These same runners,
though, report that running the marathon despite their pain improved their pain
(49%) rather than worsened it (27%). (5) Isn’t that motivating?
Contact Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C.. Your Auburn
chiropractor isn’t going to insist that you become a marathon runner. Promise!
But Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. will be encouraged to exercise: just walk or run (in place or a distance). Whatever exercise is recommended for you will
be for you and no one else! Exercise is one of the prongs in Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C.’s
Auburn chiropractic care treatment plan for you.
