Elgin Chiropractic Incorporates Simple Exercise for Back Pain Relief

June 26, 2018

So simple: exercise. For a person who just does not exercise or hasn’t felt how good it feels to exercise, it may not be so simple. But for a person with back pain, simple exercise can do so much. Connected Chiropractic would never press our Elgin back pain patients to prep for a marathon, but Connected Chiropractic gently encourages a walk to the mailbox or down the driveway! Connected Chiropractic encourages simple exercise to our Elgin back pain patients as part of the complete Elgin chiropractic treatment plan for back pain relief.

WHY EXERCISE FOR Elgin BACK PAIN RELIEF?

Connected Chiropractic knows that exercise (along with spinal manipulation!) adds to the recovery of patients who have had Elgin back surgery. In one case study, a patient with leg pain after back surgery found 89% improvement at a three month follow-up after getting spinal manipulation and exercise care. (1) Connected Chiropractic makes use of exercise and spinal manipulation through the Cox® Technic system to relieve Elgin back pain in sufferers after surgery and to prevent back surgery by reducing the back pain symptom generators.

HOW DOES EXERCISE HELP Elgin BACK PAIN?

Exercise is a potential treatment for Elgin low back pain, obesity and inflammation symptomatology. Why? Adipose, fatty tissue lets go of numerous types of cytokines - pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory – which enhance the inflammatory response of C-reactive protein which is associated with musculoskeletal pain feeling in back pain sufferers. What does this mean? Overweight patients are more likely to feel more pain. One particular inflammation marker, prostaglandin E2, causes fever and the feeling of pain and inflammation associated to low back pain.  Exercise steps in to control these issues. (2) Bottomline: Elgin back pain patients are advised to exercise, move, be active, to the degree they can. Begin small. Simple stabilization exercises bettered function, prevented fatigue and improved transverse abdominis contraction in herniated disc back pain patients. (3)  Connected Chiropractic recommends just wandering to the end of the driveway or corner then increasing the distance a little each trip. Running races is not required! Elgin back pain patients see the difference!
