Exercise Enhances Chiropractic Back Pain Relief Plan

Exercise is effective and helpful. Exercise is integral to the chiropractic care plan for spine pain issues of types. Exercise also allows the patient to take part in their healing. Aaron Chiropractic Clinic incorporates exercise into the chiropractic treatment plan for all our Fort Wayne patients to get them back to enjoying the quality of life they want.

Lax muscles reduce motion in low back pain patients. Aaron Chiropractic Clinic doesn’t consider this helpful at all! Why do back pain patients have weaker muscles? Fat. With back pain comes more fat infiltration into the back muscles, muscles like the lumbar multifidus muscles which greatly influence the range of motion in lumbar spine. Fattier multifidi, less lumbar flexion. (1)

Researchers find that there is big payoff for doing a little exercise! Patients who did just 2 days of muscle strengthening a week lowered the risk for low back pain. (And this article, as a side note, suggests that smoking is also a powerful factor in your risk of getting back pain.  Recommendation: Don’t smoke!) (2) Aaron Chiropractic Clinic presents simple exercises you can do in a short amount of time from the comfort of your own home if you like! You’ll notice the difference these make!

Chronic nonspecific low back pain sufferers benefit from exercises like the lumbopelvic core stabilization exercises by positively affecting the pain perception by improving your pain threshold and dropping your pain intensity. (3) Such exercises aren’t hard; they’re just effective! Aaron Chiropractic Clinic will share them with you so you can attain the most possible back pain relief. Aaron Chiropractic Clinic is with you, our Fort Wayne back pain patient, during your healing process with as much support as you need.

Back school is an additional such support. Back school and manipulation/mobilization are standards of care for working with chronic nonspecific low back pain. These two approaches are recommended over many other approaches. (4) Aaron Chiropractic Clinic uses spinal manipulation in the form of Cox Technic, a chiropractic evidence based system of spine care.

The chiropractic treatment plan is enriched when back school is included in the overall back pain rehabilitation plan. How? Back school nurtures self-management, gives control back to the patient to take care of him/herself. (5) Aaron Chiropractic Clinic attempts to educate our back pain patients as to how and why their backs hurt and how to prevent or at least curtail future occurrences. A survey of patients who attended a back school in a chiropractor’s office showed 95% satisfaction with having gone to the course and 100% support of the doctor’s providing it. (6) Fort Wayne chiropractic patients at Aaron Chiropractic Clinic are some of the most spine-smart people around!
