Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc also gives every effort to find exercises that are simple, effective in numerous ways like the “bird dog” move!
PERSONALIZED EXERCISE BASED ON YOUR SPINE
Chronic low back pain patients are not all made in the same way. There are numerous factors that contribute to their back pain situation. Each chronic low back pain sufferer must be evaluated individually as your Fort Wayne chiropractor always tries to do. It’s well-known that back muscle function differs from a chronic low back pain sufferer to another. Variations can be found via a thorough examination which Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc does quite well. The exam discoveries help guide an individual treatment plan with individualized exercise recommendations. (1) Know with confidence that you are an individual at Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc!
WHICH EXERCISE FOR WHICH MUSCLE?
Exercise is a common suggestion for back pain patients…and for good reason. Muscles support the body and spine. A review of published research on the usefulness of exercise revealed that exercise was likely effective for chronic low back pain in comparison to no treatment, placebo, advice or education alone, electrotherapy, or usual care. Its impact was limited for function, but it enhanced pain and functional limitations outcomes. (2) Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc believes our Fort Wayne chiropractic patients would agree that benefits of any type like this for a condition that is reported to be the top cause of disability globally for the past three decades or so, costing a lot in direct healthcare expense as well as lost productivity, are worth seeking with some exercise. Start with one exercise (like the following one!) and build up to the basic 10 for back pain.
ONE SIMPLE, EFFECTIVE EXERCISE: BIRD DOG
Erector spinae and multifidi muscles often grow weak with back pain yet are so critical for stability. Bird-dog (aka quadruped opposite arm/leg) is a 3-way effective exercise: toning the erector spinae and strengthening the multifidus and the core as well. Start this by getting on hands and knees, stretching the left leg and right arm out level with the floor. Hold the position for a couple seconds and repeat on the other side. Do this 10 times on each side. (3,4) Talk with Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc before starting any exercise though to be sure it’s the right one for you!
