Ashburn and Herndon Chiropractic Incorporates Simple Exercise for Back Pain Relief

June 26, 2018

So simple: exercise. For a person who just doesn’t exercise or hasn’t experienced how good it feels to exercise, it may not be so simple. But for a person with back pain, simple exercise can do so much. Poulin Chiropractic of Herndon and Ashburn would never push our Ashburn and Herndon back pain patients to prep for a marathon, but Poulin Chiropractic of Herndon and Ashburn kindly encourages a walk to the mailbox or down the driveway! Poulin Chiropractic of Herndon and Ashburn promotes simple exercise to our Ashburn and Herndon back pain patients as part of the comprehensive Ashburn and Herndon chiropractic treatment plan for back pain relief.

WHY EXERCISE FOR Ashburn and Herndon BACK PAIN RELIEF?

Poulin Chiropractic of Herndon and Ashburn knows that exercise (along with spinal manipulation!) adds to the rehabilitation program of patients who have had Ashburn and Herndon back surgery. In one case study, a patient with leg pain after back surgery showed 89% improvement at a 3 month follow-up after getting spinal manipulation and exercise care. (1) Poulin Chiropractic of Herndon and Ashburn utilizes exercise and spinal manipulation through the Cox® Technic system to alleviate Ashburn and Herndon back pain in sufferers after surgery and to prevent back surgery by decreasing the back pain symptom generators.

HOW DOES EXERCISE HELP Ashburn and Herndon BACK PAIN?

Exercise is a possible treatment for Ashburn and Herndon low back pain, obesity and inflammation symptomatology. How? Adipose, fatty tissue releases several types of cytokines - pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory – which boost the inflammatory response of C-reactive protein which is linked to musculoskeletal pain feeling in back pain sufferers. How does this bother Ashburn and Herndon back pain patients? Overweight patients tend to feel more pain. One certain inflammation marker, prostaglandin E2, produces fever and the feeling of pain and inflammation associated to low back pain.  Exercise helps by controlling these issues. (2) Bottomline: Ashburn and Herndon back pain patients are advised to exercise, move, be active, to the degree they can. Begin small. Simple stabilization exercises improved function, stopped fatigue and improved transverse abdominis contraction in herniated disc back pain patients. (3)  Poulin Chiropractic of Herndon and Ashburn suggests to start by just taking a walk to the mailbox or corner then adding a bit each trip. Running races isn’t necessary! Ashburn and Herndon back pain patients observe the change!
