So simple: exercise. For a person who has never exercised
or leads a sedentary life, it may not
be so simple. But for a person with back pain, simple exercise can be
a huge help. Arctic Chiropractic, Sitka would never press our
Sitka back pain patients to prepare for a
marathon, but Arctic Chiropractic, Sitka kindly promotes taking a walk to the corner or out to the
mailbox! Arctic Chiropractic, Sitka promotes simple exercise to our
Sitka back pain patients as part of the comprehensive
Sitka chiropractic treatment plan for back pain relief.
WHY EXERCISE FOR Sitka BACK PAIN RELIEF?
Arctic Chiropractic, Sitka knows that exercise (along
with spinal manipulation!) adds to the rehabilitation
program of patients who have undergone Sitka
back surgery. In one case study, a patient with leg
pain after back surgery found 89% improvement at a 3
month follow-up after getting spinal manipulation and exercise
care. (1) Arctic Chiropractic, Sitka utilizes exercise and
spinal manipulation through the Cox® Technic system to alleviate
Sitka back pain in sufferers after surgery and to prevent back
surgery by decreasing the back pain symptom
generators.
HOW DOES EXERCISE HELP Sitka BACK PAIN?
Exercise is a potential treatment for Sitka
low back pain, obesity and inflammation symptomatology. How?
Adipose, fatty tissue releases several types of
cytokines - pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory – which enhance
the inflammatory response of C-reactive protein which is associated
with musculoskeletal pain sensation in back pain
sufferers. How does this bother
Sitka back pain patients? Overweight patients have a tendency to feel more pain. One certain
inflammation marker, prostaglandin E2, triggers fever and
the feeling of pain and inflammation related to
low back pain. Exercise steps in to control these issues. (2) Bottomline: Sitka
back pain patients would do well to exercise, move, be
active, to the level they can. Begin small. Simple
stabilization exercises increased function, stopped
fatigue and increased transverse abdominis
contraction in herniated disc back pain patients. (3) Arctic Chiropractic, Sitka suggests to start
by just taking a walk to the end of the
driveway or corner then adding a bit
each trip. Running races is not required! Sitka
back pain patients see the difference!
