Manahawkin Knee Pain Relief Tips Manahawkin Chiropractic Center
Knees and knee pain. Boy, do we work our knees…or at least we should! Manahawkin Chiropractic Center hears about painful knees nearly as much as we hear about painful backs and necks! Manahawkin knee pain sufferers know the symptoms and feel the same: “I don’t want knee pain!” Manahawkin Chiropractic Center has some enlightening new research on exercise, chiropractic care, and nutrition to keep knee pain in check.
EXERCISE PROTECTS THE KNEES
If you have Manahawkin knee pain, it may seem that moving the painful knee will only aggravate it more. Many doctors like yours at Manahawkin Chiropractic Center and researchers hear that! That is fear. Manahawkin Chiropractic Center gets it! Physical activity is good for your knee’s overall health though. Manahawkin Chiropractic Center will work with you to calm your fear and ensure movement helps! Manahawkin Chiropractic Center also will tell you again that a sedentary lifestyle may cause more issues and likely end in more joint health troubles. A study that tracked people for 8 years found that persistent sitting was not associated with knee osteoarthritis while low to moderate level of active physical activity is protective against knee osteoarthritis. If you sit a great deal, exercise, too. It is beneficial. The authors specifically report that long-term strenuous activity participation did not raise the incidence of knee osteoarthritis. That’s good news! They write cautiously that people who were older, have a larger BMI, more severe pain, weaker quadriceps and depression were less likely to do any strenuous activities. (1) If that is you, let’s get past these issues for your knees’ sake! Manahawkin Chiropractic Center is a fabulous Manahawkin health partner!
QUADRICEPS HELPS THE KNEES
And talk about good partners, quads are to knees! Strong quadriceps benefit knees. Exercising the quadriceps is smart! A study examined younger and older folks doing resistance exercises via machine vs. elastic band. Both succeed! Maximal voluntary contraction of the knee extensors in older folks is higher than that in younger people. Exercise may benefit the older folks develop that muscle so it can last longer and potentially reduce the muscle loss that normally comes with aging. (2) Manahawkin Chiropractic Center can guide you toward stronger quads!
COORDINATE KNEES AND LIMBS
Ever heard of patellofemoral pain syndrome? It is a name for a very common musculoskeletal disorder of unusual motor coordination of the limbs that loads the knees unequally, raising their risk of pain. (3) Knowing this helps your Manahawkin chiropractor lead treatment and exercise to help coordinate motion. One way to improving motion is resistance training whose effectiveness can really be noticed in hopping. Researchers found that hopping demands strong ankles and knees that interact well. Resistance training increases strength and coordination benefiting knees and ankles. (4) Do not let the child in you start hopping just yet! Talk with your Manahawkin chiropractor first!
