McHenry Exercise May Be Inspired by Social Interaction & Listening Docs
What inspires you to exercise? Everybody is different. Pain relief, social interaction, a listening, attentive healthcare provider who’s encouraging you to exercise, feeling like you are heard and understood all help. There is something for everyone! OrthoIllinois Chiropractic hopes to inspire our McHenry back pain patients to exercise to keep their back pain in check.
OLDER BACK PAIN PATIENTS’ INSPIRATION TO EXERCISE
Lumbar spinal stenosis is one aggravating back pain condition! Older adults really feel its effect as it restricts their ability to walk and do other daily activities. A study contrasted three approaches: medical care, community-based group exercise, and clinic based manual therapy and individualized exercise. All the patients stated that exercise improved their pain levels and function but that these effects were short-lived. They had to keep doing them. The most common issues for not carrying on with these activities were other health issues and transportation. The medical care approach had little to no effect. The community group exercise provided social support and participants continued these classes after the study. These back pain patients said that the doctor’s ability to relate to them and listen to their concerns were so important. (1) OrthoIllinois Chiropractic wants to listen, inspire, and watch our McHenry back pain patients get McHenry back pain relief with chiropractic care and exercise.
HOW MUCH YOU EXERCISE INSPIRES EXERCISE
A recent study found that six weeks of twice-a-week (better than one time a week or home exercise alone) supervised physical therapy brought about significant temporary improvements in symptom severity, physical function, back and leg pain, and gait disturbance. (2) It comes back to the benchmark paper by Weber who pointed out that 90% of disc herniation with sciatica patients responded to active, energetic, non-operative care. (3) That is what it’s all about at OrthoIllinois Chiropractic! Active, energetic management of back pain! Patients and their healthcare providers like your McHenry chiropractor must go all out to take care of the basis of back pain as well as its symptomatology.
