Williamson Exercise Helps with Back Pain Relief and Strength
“Doc, what kind of exercise do you think would help?”
“The kind that you will do!”
There is some wit in that response, but it is true, too. Exercise that you’ll do is the most valuable exercise of all! Whether you suffer with Williamson neck pain or Williamson back pain, strengthening exercise helps. Apple Country Chiropractic is here to help you find exercise you will do and exercise that will benefit you.
STRENGTH AND CONDITIONING EXERCISE HELPS
General strength and conditioning exercise helps chronic low back pain patients, particularly in terms of pain intensity relief. Comparing general strength and conditioning exercise to motor control exercise with manual therapy disclosed that the general exercise was more apt to provide a more diverse range of treatment effects. In particular, the general exercise bettered trunk endurance, leg muscle strength and endurance, disability, multifidus muscle volume, and fear of doing daily activities in chronic low back pain patients. (1) A Cochrane Review of published medical literature showed that motor control exercise is more successful in decreasing chronic low back pain than minimal intervention, but, alone, motor control exercise does not show itself to be better than other exercise or manual therapy for pain relief. (2) What does this mean? General strength and conditioning exercise is helpful for pain reduction by improving the overall body condition. Apple Country Chiropractic helps Williamson back pain patients set up an exercise routine that works for them to maximize pain reduction and improve strength.
EXERCISE AND MANIPULATION
Apple Country Chiropractic also aims to get the most back pain reduction and strength improvement by blending exercise with chiropractic treatment. Apple Country Chiropractic uses The Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain Management to enrich these clinical outcomes. A new report states that combining manipulative treatment with exercise reduced pain and improved functional disability more than exercise by itself for non-specific neck pain sufferers. (3) Together, your Williamson chiropractor and you will determine the best suited exercises and the appropriate exercise routine to complement your Williamson chiropractic treatment plan to get you feeling the best you can!
