Chronic low back pain (CLBP) slows
life down for its sufferers. Tonawanda chronic low back pain
sufferers want their lives back. Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation
has a chiropractic treatment plan with options that do exactly
that. The treatment plan often incorporates chiropractic
spinal manipulation like Cox® Technic along with gentle
exercise and nutrition. A couple new
insights about effective exercise interventions are shared here
for our Tonawanda back pain patients’ consideration as it is
up to you to select what exercise suits you!
WALKING AND MIND-BODY THERAPIES: Gentle Exercise Options
Walking works, so do mind-body therapies like yoga. An analysis
of 31 randomized control trials of 3193 participants, walking came across as effective as control interventions for short term relief of
chronic low back pain and slightly superior for intermediate
term pain relief and activity limitation improvement while yoga was more beneficial
for pain and activity limitation improvement
in the short term. Doing both yoga and walking
was proposed as a valuable combination
for CLBP patients. (1) In an analysis of 18
randomized controlled trials, yoga was reported
to decrease pain in the short to intermediate term and to improve
functional disability from short to long term when compared with
non-exercise, usual care, and education. However it had the same
effects on pain and disability as other exercise modes or physical therapy.
(2) Most everyone can take a stroll. Some enjoy physical
therapy exercise. Most can do yoga if they want.
Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation understands that not every exercise option may be
our Tonawanda back pain sufferer’s “thing”! Options
are key to participation...and Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation has them!
MOTOR CONTROL EXERCISES
One group of researchers wrote that up-to-date
evidence doesn’t indicate that any single
form of exercise is better than any other for back
pain relief. That’s interesting! They did report that
exercise is modestly effective treatment for CLBP,
a major health and socioeconomic issue (cost,
disability, missed work). The most
common type of exercise for back pain relief was described as
being motor control exercise which works
on the deep muscles and their coordination. Reportedly not
superior to other forms of exercise, motor control exercise should
be an alternative for chronic low back pain patients among
other kinds of exercise. The researchers indicated
that the choice should be made by the patient in collaboration with his/her
doctor/therapist. (3) Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation chats with each Tonawanda back
pain sufferer to find out what exercise will work and will be
performed. That is the most important factor!
