No Exercise Often Increases Risk of More Ashburn and Herndon Pain & Disease Progression

September 24, 2019

Do something. Move. Walk. Stretch. Pain sufferers benefit when they do something. No exercising is a risk for deteriorating pain, both pain in the body and pain in the mind in the form of depression. Poulin Chiropractic of Herndon and Ashburn takes care of many Ashburn and Herndon back pain patients in pain who also deal with depression. Poulin Chiropractic of Herndon and Ashburn also recognizes that when our Ashburn and Herndon chiropractic patients do something, they get better in body and mind.

NO EXERCISE RAISES RISK OF STENOSIS PROGRESSION

Spinal stenosis is a common diagnosis. It is the lessening of the spinal canal area as a result of degeneration. A new study reported that risk of spinal stenosis progression is greater for those who had spondylolisthesis, experienced pain (in leg and/or back) when walking, and more severe stenosis. The lack of therapeutic exercise was also discovered to a risk factor for the progression of spinal stenosis. (1) Back pain sufferers like those who have spinal stenosis and spondylolisthesis need exercise! Poulin Chiropractic of Herndon and Ashburn helps each of our chiropractic patients find what exercise is right for them.

EXERCISE IMPROVES FUNCTION

Nonspecific low back pain sufferers enhanced their functional disability status more with stabilization and/or McKenzie exercises than with conventional exercise programs. (2) Notice though that exercise helped, whether or not it was conventional!

EXERCISE IMPROVES DEPRESSION

For many back pain sufferers with specific or non-specific back pain, chronic or not, may well find themselves a little blue when their back pain hangs around longer than desired. It is not unusual. Once more, exercise to the rescue! Another study showed that exercise (low dose or moderate-dose strength and conditioning) helped reduce depressive symptoms in adults with chronic low back pain. Combining exercise and manual therapy was a bonus! (3) Poulin Chiropractic of Herndon and Ashburn incorporates as many beneficial approaches to back pain relief as possible to help our Ashburn and Herndon back pain patients! The Cox® Technic System of Spine Pain Management is one of those approaches.
