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 Most Chiropractic Clinic with Cox Technic and exercise even raises the odds for even more back pain relief. In this article, Most Chiropractic Clinic is sharing how exercise can really be of value to our Murfreesboro chiropractic patients. Exercise is something our Murfreesboro 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 Murfreesboro back pain sufferers. Experience of your Murfreesboro chiropractor allows confidence that
back pain relief is possible with a multi-prong approach to care. Most Chiropractic Clinic offers
chiropractic care’s multi-prong approach of
spinal manipulation,
exercise,
nutrition, physiological therapeutics and more. Most Chiropractic Clinic helps Murfreesboro back pain sufferers regain some
control over their back pain by exercising.
Most Chiropractic Clinic will hear our Murfreesboro 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) Murfreesboro back pain
patients are in luck then. A little running is effective in multiple ways.
Now, Most Chiropractic Clinic knows that chronic non-specific low back
pain influences trunk and lower limb movement (like the knee joint). (4) Most Chiropractic Clinic therefore reminds our
Murfreesboro low back pain patients to be careful when walking and/or
running but to keep moving.
If you’re still a skeptical
Murfreesboro 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
Murfreesboro 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 Most Chiropractic Clinic. Your Murfreesboro
chiropractor isn’t going to insist that you become a marathon runner. Promise!
But Most Chiropractic Clinic 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 Most Chiropractic Clinic’s
Murfreesboro chiropractic care treatment plan for you.
