Manahawkin Chiropractic Back Pain Relief Benefits from Routine Exercise
Independence. It is an admirable quality. Sometimes. When it comes to exercise, seeking a little guidance more often is better. Manahawkin Chiropractic Center is equipped to be your guide! Manahawkin back pain sufferers can rely on Manahawkin Chiropractic Center to establish, demonstrate and supervise an exercise routine that is pain relieving specially for you!
BENEFIT OF SUPERVISED EXERCISE
Research shows that supervised exercise therapy begets significant symptom relief and improved quality of life for patients with intermittent claudication by increasing maximal walking distance in just 90 days. Sadly, it’s not put in to practice enough. Home based exercise therapy with observation tools like a pedometer or logbook and walking are other helpful alternatives to supervised exercise, allowing a bit more of the preferred independence. (1) Manahawkin back pain patients may benefit just like these back pain patients. Spinal stenosis back pain patients would value walking more like that!
MORE REGULAR SUPERVISED SESSIONS BENEFICIAL
A recent report states that supervised physical therapy for lumbar spinal stenosis patients gave significant short-term improvements in symptom severity, walking distance, pain, physical activity and function compared with unsupervised. (2) A follow-up study compared a more specialized schedule of supervised physical therapy visits – two times a week and once weekly - to home exercise. It reports specifically that 6 weeks of supervised physical therapy twice weekly for lumbar spinal stenosis patients allowed significant short term improvements in the severity of symptoms, physical function, back and leg pain and gait disturbance compared with one time a week PT visits and home exercise exclusively. (3) Our Manahawkin back pain patients would embrace all these improvements, no doubt!
EXERCISE AS PART OF AN OVERALL BACK PAIN RELIEF TREATMENT PLAN
Improvement is the goal for back pain management. Independence only gets you so far when your back is hurting. There is always a tipping point when the pain just cannot be dealt with any more! Then a trip to the doctor is arranged. Many articles are written about how the doctor seen first often sets the course for resulting care. (That was the topic of another blog!) Regarding exercise and physical therapy for back pain, though, these are conservative management forms that are often too rarely used while opioid prescriptions are very common in the year before elective lumbar spine surgery: 84.4% opioid prescription and 14.6% minimum of 6 exercise therapy visits. (4) Manahawkin Chiropractic Center is honored to be chosen for back pain relief.
