What's Your Exercise "Thing" That You'll Do?
What’s your exercise “thing”? Is “Do this.” or “Which do you prefer?” more appealing to you? We all like choices! We all have favorites. Your Sitka chiropractor is prepared to give you options when it involves exercise. Arctic Chiropractic, Sitka just wants you to exercise. You decide how! When you choose, the outcomes are better in terms of satisfaction and pain relief. Arctic Chiropractic, Sitka's chiropractic care is all about you and your Sitka back pain relief.
EXERCISE FOR SATISFACTION
Including spinal manipulation and/or supervised rehabilitation exercise to home exercise alone for older adults suffering with chronic low back pain enhances their satisfaction with care. (1) Could this come from having a professional check on you and your healing periodically? If you are doing home exercise alone, you do not benefit from someone caring for you, checking on your progress objectively, confirming that you are improving. Arctic Chiropractic, Sitka is here for our Sitka chronic low back pain patients with spinal manipulation, exercise guidance and objective encouragement. Chronic low back pain is tough to cope with. It often holds you back from doing what you want to do. It tends to also diminish your quality and enjoyment of life.
DO WHAT YOU WANT
Arctic Chiropractic, Sitka wishes our Sitka back pain patients to perform what they desire and like what they do. Exercise is essential. Doing a type of exercise that a back pain patient likes increases the possibility that he or she will exercise. What do you enjoy doing? A recent study of older adults – 65 to 85 years – assessed the usefulness of Pilates exercise to aerobic exercise on a treadmill for chronic low back pain. The study proposes that either will reduce pain and improve balance and function and that Pilates may be more helpful as its exercises aim at the trunk stabilization muscles. Both ways, matching patient preference to an exercise program is the goal to enhance patient care satisfaction, pain reduction and quality of life. (2)
