Exercise and back pain: what a pair!
Pflugerville Wellness Center personalizes the most
appropriate back pain exercises for each Pflugerville back pain
sufferer visiting Pflugerville Wellness Center to maximize back pain relief, boost the supporting muscles like the erector
spinae and multifidus, and recoup function. Pflugerville Wellness Center
also tries to find exercises that are easy,
effective in a variety of ways like the “bird dog” movement!
PERSONALIZED EXERCISE BASED ON YOUR
SPINE
Chronic low back pain patients are not created equally. There are numerous factors that impact their back pain situation. Each chronic low back pain
sufferer must be considered individually as your
Pflugerville chiropractor always tries to do. It’s well-known that back muscle function differs from a chronic
low back pain sufferer to another. Variations
can be found via a thorough examination which Pflugerville Wellness Center does quite well. The exam discoveries help create
an individual treatment plan
with individualized exercise recommendations. (1) Know with confidence that you are
an individual at Pflugerville Wellness Center!
WHICH EXERCISE FOR WHICH MUSCLE?
Exercise is a regular recommendation
for back pain patients…and for good reason. Muscles support the body
and spine. A review of published research on the usefulness
of exercise revealed that exercise was likely effective for chronic
low back pain compared to no treatment, placebo, advice or
education alone, electrotherapy, or usual care. Its effect was limited
for function, but it enhanced pain and functional limitations
outcomes. (2) Pflugerville Wellness Center believes our Pflugerville
chiropractic patients would be in agreement that benefits of
any type like this for a condition that is reported to be the foremost cause of disability globally for the past three decades or so, costing a lot in
direct healthcare expense and lost productivity,
are valuable to {{seek with some exercise. Start with one exercise (like the following one!) and build up to the basic 10 for back pain.
ONE SIMPLE, EFFECTIVE EXERCISE: BIRD DOG
Erector spinae and multifidi muscles often grow
weak with back pain yet are so essential
for stability. Bird-dog (aka quadruped
opposite arm/leg) is a 3-way effective exercise: toning the erector spinae while
strengthening both the core and the
multifidus. Start this by getting on hands and knees, stretching the left leg and right arm out level with the floor. Hold this for a couple seconds and repeat
on the other side. Perform this 10 times on each side. (3,4) Have a
