No Exercise Often Increases Risk of More San Jose Pain & Disease Progression

September 24, 2019

Do something. Move. Walk. Stretch. Pain sufferers benefit when they do something. No exercising is a risk for worsening pain, both pain in the body and pain in the mind in the form of depression. Chiropractic Solutions takes care of many San Jose back pain patients in pain who also deal with depression. Chiropractic Solutions also recognizes that when our San Jose chiropractic patients do something, they improve in body and mind.

NO EXERCISE RAISES RISK OF STENOSIS PROGRESSION

Spinal stenosis is a familiar diagnosis. It’s the reduction of the spinal canal area as a result of degeneration. A recent study revealed that risk of spinal stenosis progression is higher for those who had spondylolisthesis, had pain (in leg and/or back) when walking, and more severe stenosis. The lack of therapeutic exercise was also discovered to a risk factor for the progression of spinal stenosis. (1) Back pain sufferers like those with spinal stenosis and spondylolisthesis benefit from exercise! Chiropractic Solutions helps each of our chiropractic patients find what exercise fits them.

EXERCISE IMPROVES FUNCTION

Nonspecific low back pain sufferers enhanced their functional disability status better with stabilization and/or McKenzie exercises than with conventional exercise programs. (2) Note though that exercise helped, conventional or not!

EXERCISE IMPROVES DEPRESSION

For many back pain sufferers with specific or non-specific back pain, chronic or not, may well find themselves a little blue when their back pain hangs around longer than desired. It is not uncommon. Again, exercise helps! Another study showed that exercise (low dose or moderate-dose strength and conditioning) helped decrease depressive symptoms in adults with chronic low back pain. Combining exercise and manual therapy was a bonus! (3) Chiropractic Solutions brings in as many beneficial approaches to back pain relief as possible to help our San Jose back pain patients! The Cox® Technic System of Spine Pain Management is one of those approaches.
