So simple: exercise. For a person who just doesn’t exercise or hasn’t
felt how good it feels to exercise, it might
be so simple. But for a person with back pain, simple exercise can do so much. OrthoIllinois Chiropractic would never push our
McHenry back pain patients to train for a
marathon, but OrthoIllinois Chiropractic kindly encourages a walk to the
mailbox or down the driveway! OrthoIllinois Chiropractic encourages simple exercise to our
McHenry back pain patients as part of the comprehensive
McHenry chiropractic treatment plan for back pain relief.
WHY EXERCISE FOR McHenry BACK PAIN RELIEF?
OrthoIllinois Chiropractic knows that exercise (along
with spinal manipulation!) contributes to the rehabilitation
program of patients who have undergone McHenry
back surgery. In one report, a patient with leg
pain after back surgery showed 89% improvement at a three
month follow-up after getting spinal manipulation and exercise
care. (1) OrthoIllinois Chiropractic uses exercise and
spinal manipulation via the Cox® Technic system to ease
McHenry back pain in sufferers after surgery and to prevent back
surgery by reducing the back pain symptom
generators.
HOW DOES EXERCISE HELP McHenry BACK PAIN?
Exercise is a possible treatment for McHenry
low back pain, obesity and inflammation symptomatology. How?
Adipose, fatty tissue releases several types of
cytokines - pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory – which heightens
the inflammatory response of C-reactive protein which is linked to musculoskeletal pain sensation in back pain
sufferers. What does this mean? Overweight patients are more
likely to feel more pain. One particular
inflammation marker, prostaglandin E2, causes fever and
the feeling of pain and inflammation associated to
low back pain. Exercise steps in to control these issues. (2) Bottomline: McHenry
back pain patients are advised to exercise, move, be
active, to the extent they can. Begin small. Simple
stabilization exercises improved function, prevented
fatigue and improved transverse abdominis
contraction in herniated disc back pain patients. (3) OrthoIllinois Chiropractic suggests to start
by just strolling to the mailbox or corner then increasing the distance a little
each trip. Running races isn’t required! McHenry
back pain patients see the difference!
