Your San Jose chiropractor is always
looking for relatable ways to address
San Jose back pain patients’ questions. San Jose back pain
patients like easy answers. Your San Jose chiropractor at
Chiropractic Solutions does, too. Check out these factors that guide
your relief of San Jose back pain, arm and leg pain.
CHRONIC LOW BACK PAIN, MOVEMENT AND METABOLIC DISEASE
Chronic non-specific San Jose low back pain (LBP) presents
a huge socioeconomic problem although the
mechanisms are not yet clear. Impaired motor control is
one issue which was indicated by a reduced
movement amplitude of the pelvis, additional in-phase coordination,
lower ground reaction forces, greater stride-to-stride variability
and an elevated motion in spine muscles.
Impaired motor control during walking is reflected in greater
activity of the spine muscles which results in a stiffened lumbar-pelvic
region. (1) Dysmobility Syndrome (DMS) (abnormal spine motion) of the
musculoskeletal system and adverse health problems in older population is seen.
Abnormal spine mobility is linked to metabolic
syndrome (MetS) (2), and MetS involves a grouping
of cardiovascular risk factors (insulin resistance, hypertension, glucose
intolerance, low HDL-C, and hypertriglyceridemia. (7) DMS and MetS are related
in six ways: elevated body fat, declined
muscle mass, reduced muscle strength, osteoporosis, slow gait
speed, and balance issues. Particularly, insulin
resistance was related to increased body
fat, osteoporosis and balance. This research demonstrated
a compelling relationship between DMS and the presence
of MetS and its factors in the elderly population. (2)
Additionally, low high density lipid (HDL) cholesterol and
high low density cholesterol/high density lipid cholesterol ratio were
significantly associated with low back pain in a middle-aged Japanese
population. San Jose back pain patients are share the same
issues! These discoveries might back the atherosclerosis-low back pain connection
hypothesis. (3) Chiropractic Solutions helps San Jose chiropractic patients
with San Jose back pain relief and with their wish to fix
complicating metabolic issues.
EXERCISE
Chiropractic Solutions encourages San Jose
chiropractic patients to exercise even doing something as simple as walk. Researchers evaluated the outcomes
of an exercise therapy program on pain and physical dimension of health-related
quality of life for 57 young adults of an average age of 21
with musculoskeletal pain. A 9-week stabilization exercise therapy
program, performed 60 minutes once a week, revealed
enhanced pain and disability and intensified
spine muscle endurance. This study revealed that a
9-week progressive exercise therapy program can enhance physical
health and decrease the prevalence of cervical
disability and low back pain in young people with musculoskeletal
pain. (4) Chiropractic Solutions highlights that exercise is effective!
BALANCE CONTROL
San Jose back pain in older folks successfully reduces balance ability.
Chiropractic Solutions doesn’t view this as a beneficial
event! These patients presented reduced
dependence on ankle and hip strategy for balance
control causing a deficit
of postural control from proprioceptive impairment. Also, elderly
patients with low back pain are at increased risk for lower leg
proprioceptive decrease and balance ability. (5) Chiropractic Solutions certainly
evaluates San Jose back pain patients for issues
with balance.
HAND GRIP STRENGTH
Another thought-provoking
finding is low hand grip strength in women who are
over 50 years with low physical activity was significantly associated
with the existence of low back pain. (6) Chiropractic Solutions
finds this curious, but it is documented!
