SPECIFIC EXERCISES FOR SPECIFIC CONDITIONS
Since Manchester Chiropractic & Sports Injuries cares for a lot of
musculoskeletal pain like back pain and neck pain and related arm and leg pain,
new research was quite interesting! It
documented the suggestion and value
of exercise for many specific conditions. A list of exercises for
assorted diseases – musculoskeletal system diseases
like low back pain, hip fracture, osteoarthritis and osteoporosis –
explained the preventive and rehabilitative effects for each as
well as the proper intensity and frequency. (1)
Improved knee pain, function and quality of life stemmed from
isolated hip and leg strengthening exercises. (2) Manchester Chiropractic & Sports Injuries
invites patients with knee, back and hip pain to our
chiropractic practice.
HIP PAIN…OR BACK PAIN?
Hip pain issues happen singularly. Hip
pain issues may arise in combination with
low back issues like spinal stenosis. Hip
xrays are not reliable on their own. MRIs are more dependable
for confirming diagnosis. Hip pain may mimic lumbar
spinal stenosis. (3) What Manchester Chiropractic & Sports Injuries carefully examines for
are non-spine related issues like avascular necrosis of the hip and hip
fractures so that those may be co-managed as well. Manchester Chiropractic & Sports Injuries ensures our
patients get the care they need!
BACK PAIN RELATED HIP PAIN
Patients who have non-specific mechanical low
back pain walk differently due to different
pelvic, hip and knee movements. They also are less able
to extend their hip flexors and abductor muscles. (4) Researchers further explained that low back pain influenced muscles of the
lumbopelvic area. It’s important for back pain
sufferers. Changes in hip muscles may stem from
alterations in the cross-sectional area and volume of muscle. Why is this notable? Developing an exercise program to increase hip
muscle function is valuable. (5) Surgeons are even finding
value in having patients who decide to have back surgery perform
“prehabilitation” exercises before back surgery as it improved
range of motion, leg pain intensity, lumbar spine extensor muscle endurance and
walking capacity…with no adverse side effects. (6)
Manchester Chiropractic & Sports Injuries has treatment programs of exercise blended
with evidence based spinal manipulation and nutrition to prevent
back surgery when possible as well as56 pre-habilitate
and rehabilitate Manchester back pain patients!
