Guidelines. There are guidelines for everything! This post discusses some of the more recent guidelines for interprofessional teamwork between chiropractors and other healthcare providers to enhance the healing of Williamson back pain and neck pain sufferers. Exercises are a core part of back pain prevention alongside management that all providers encourage and all providers worry are not always executed. Chiropractors like your own at Apple Country Chiropractic are health promoters and work to do that in the nicest, most supportive way! Let us work together to get you better.
GUIDELINES FOR PHYSICAL ACTIVITY
Quality in healthcare delivery is discussed a lot. Providers and patients want the best quality care possible in delivering care and receiving care. Interprofessional collaboration is on the top of the list when researchers assess systems for the care of back pain like proper use of screening and preventive services. (1) Researchers have also put together 70 quality indicators for chiropractic delivery that are standardized and evidence-based that take into consideration patient worries and higher clinical outcomes. (2) Physical activity certainly is a part of a quality chiropractic healthcare plan for Williamson pain relief.
BENEFITS OF PHYSICAL ACTIVITY FOR BACK PAIN AND NECK PAIN
In a recent survey, chiropractors reported that the biggest concern they held in managing back pain patients was patient follow through (exercises, appointments, at-home recommendations, etc.). (3) In another survey, 90% of chiropractors noted that they were optimistic about healthier patient lifestyles. These chiropractors also shared that they were actively involved in promoting physical activity, suggesting exercises to patients for their particular issue, inquiring how the exercises are going, and counseling patients in the proper technique to do exercises as well as value of doing exercises. (4) One way that patients seem to respond more positively and be more willing to do physical activity is using a mobile application. Such apps help handle low back and neck pain patients when they are built around reported pain, pain intensity, and structure of the app like audio explanation and animation of each exercise. (5) Doing the right exercises in the right way is the most helpful.
ADD IN SOME DIAPHRAGMATIC BREATHING!
Core stabilization exercises are commonly recommended to back pain patients. One new study that incorporated diaphragmatic breathing exercises noted many advantages for chronic low back pain patients: improved muscle activity, chest expansion, quality of sleep, improved disability and physical activity and pain scores, decreased fear avoidance, and increased physical activity, among others. (6) As a part of your healthcare team, your chiropractor at Apple Country Chiropractic feels a duty to promote physical activity so that you can take care of you. Our younger back pain and neck pain sufferers benefit. Our older adults with aches and pains and/or Williamson back pain and/or neck pain benefit, too!
