“Exercise? But my neck (or back) hurts!”
The Chiropractic TRUhealthDR hears you! The Chiropractic TRUhealthDR knows your back
hurts. Many Colorado Springs chiropractic patients come for just that reason:
Colorado Springs back pain. Back/Neck pain relief - whether because of Colorado Springs spinal stenosis or a Colorado Springs disc
herniation whether it’s in the back/neck only or goes
down the leg/arm and into the foot/hand - is possible through our combined
effort: Colorado Springs chiropractic care including spinal manipulation and
exercise.
Colorado Springs SPINAL STENOSIS AND LEG PAIN
Low back pain patients with spinal stenosis and leg pain show
decreased cross sectional area of the spinal extensor muscles and fat
infiltration on MRI. What does that mean? They have
a loss of muscle power in the low back when pain is present.
(1) One of the causes of low back pain is lumbar hyperlordosis (sway back). One
type of therapeutic exercise known as Perez-Olmedo showed improvement
in 60% of youths with hyperlordosis. (2) The Chiropractic TRUhealthDR looks for
such causes and has just the exercise to tackle the issue.
Colorado Springs NECK PAIN
Neck pain patients experience less neck pain and improved
dysfunction neck posture and range of motion with thoracic spine manipulation.
The relief continues for up to a half-year later.
(3) This goes to show that spinal manipulation is an important
part in Colorado Springs pain relief treatment plans.
The Chiropractic TRUhealthDR is skilled at setting
these up for our Colorado Springs chiropractic patients!
Colorado Springs BACK PAIN
Chronic low back pain patients with weak stomach
muscles were treated
with abdominoplasty (a “tummy tuck”). This
tightens and stabilizes the ab muscles by making the muscles work better and
increase intraabdominal pressure to
make them better spine stabilizers. Such abdominal strengthening should be considered
a way for patients with weak ab
muscles and intractable low back pain who have not been
helped by conservative management. (4)
The Chiropractic TRUhealthDR can recommend you some specific
exercises that will be just right for you before resorting to a surgery!
INTERMITTENT CLAUDICATION (cramp-like pain in the legs upon
exercise like walking)
Peripheral artery disease patients with intermittent
claudication were cared for with a home-based exercise program a
supervised exercise program and usual-care control. Both exercise programs had
patients exercise with a step activity monitor for 12 weeks. The patients stuck with these programs which both proved effective
in improving claudication measures comparable to a standard
supervised exercise program. Such exercise appears more effective
in increasing daily activity in the
community setting than supervised exercise. (5) If you are one of those The Chiropractic TRUhealthDR
is prepared to be your community!
Colorado Springs NON-SPECIFIC
LOW BACK PAIN
Persistent non-specific low back pain drives some
Colorado Springs back pain sufferers mad…with good reason! The Chiropractic TRUhealthDR
gets it! Compared with slight or other interventions Pilates is a
good alternative to try to reduce back pain and ease disability. (7)
Colorado Springs POST-SURGICAL BACK PAIN
Even after back surgery, exercise helps. Aerobic
exercise starting one month after first time
single-level lumbar microdiscectomy resulted in a more marked
functional improvement than home exercise. (8) Whatever it takes to help reduce
back pain is the important factor. Listen in to a PODCAST that shares how Cox Technic helps relieve post-surgical back pain. The Chiropractic TRUhealthDR will help you explore
the best exercise option for you!
