Sitka Exercise May Be Inspired by Social Interaction & Listening Docs

What inspires you to exercise? Everybody is different. Pain relief, social interaction, a listening, attentive healthcare provider who’s encouraging you to exercise, feeling like you are heard and understood all help. There’s something for everyone! Arctic Chiropractic, Sitka hopes to inspire our Sitka back pain patients to exercise to keep their back pain in check.

OLDER BACK PAIN PATIENTS’ INSPIRATION TO EXERCISE

Lumbar spinal stenosis is one aggravating back pain problem! Older adults really feel its effect as it limits their ability to walk and do other daily activities. A research project contrasted three tactics: medical care, community-based group exercise, and clinic based manual therapy and personalized exercise. All the participants stated that exercise bettered their pain levels and function but that these effects were short-lived. They had to keep doing them. The most common issues for not carrying on with these activities were other health issues and transportation. The medical care approach had little to no effect. The community group exercise offered social support and participants kept going to these classes after the study. These back pain patients stated that the doctor’s ability to relate to them and listen to their concerns were so important. (1) Arctic Chiropractic, Sitka wants to listen, inspire, and watch our Sitka back pain patients get Sitka back pain relief with chiropractic care and exercise.

HOW MUCH YOU EXERCISE INSPIRES EXERCISE

Another study found that six weeks of twice-a-week (more so than once a week or home exercise alone) supervised physical therapy resulted in significant temporary improvements in symptom severity, physical function, back and leg pain, and gait disturbance. (2) It harkens back to the classic paper by Weber who explained that 90% of disc herniation with sciatica patients responded to active, energetic, non-operative care. (3) That is what it is all about at Arctic Chiropractic, Sitka! Active, energetic management of back pain!
