Ashburn and Herndon Exercise Helps with Back Pain Relief and Strength
“Doc, what kind of exercise do you think would help?”
“The kind that you will do!”
There is some wit in that delivery, but there is some truth in it, too. Exercise that you’ll do is the most useful exercise of all! Whether you experience Ashburn and Herndon neck pain or Ashburn and Herndon back pain, strengthening exercise helps. Poulin Chiropractic of Herndon and Ashburn is ready to help you figure out what exercise you will do and exercise that will benefit you.
STRENGTH AND CONDITIONING EXERCISE HELPS
General strength and conditioning exercise benefits chronic low back pain patients, especially in terms of pain intensity reduction. Comparing general strength and conditioning exercise to motor control exercise with manual therapy disclosed that the general exercise tended to provide a more varied range of treatment outcomes. Specifically, the general exercise improved trunk endurance, leg muscle strength and endurance, disability, multifidus muscle volume, and fear of doing daily activities for chronic low back pain patients. (1) A Cochrane Review of published medical literature revealed that motor control exercise is more successful in reducing chronic low back pain than minimal intervention, but, on its own, motor control exercise does not stand out to be better than other exercise or manual therapy for pain relief. (2) What does this mean? General strength and conditioning exercise is useful to decrease pain by boosting the overall body condition. Poulin Chiropractic of Herndon and Ashburn helps Ashburn and Herndon back pain patients set up an exercise practice that works for them to maximize pain reduction and improve strength.
EXERCISE AND MANIPULATION
Poulin Chiropractic of Herndon and Ashburn also works to maximize back pain reduction and strength improvement by blending exercise with chiropractic treatment. Poulin Chiropractic of Herndon and Ashburn uses The Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain Management to boost such clinical outcomes. A recent report states that blending manipulative treatment with exercise decreased pain and improved functional disability more than exercise alone for non-specific neck pain sufferers.
