Manchester Chiropractic Plan for Pain Relief and Prevention with Exercise
“Do I have to exercise?”
“Yes, you should if you want to feel better faster and prevent pain,“ your Manchester chiropractic encourages.
“How much time do I have to spend exercising every day?”
“Not long, just effectively,” Manchester Chiropractic & Sports Injuries suggests.
Exercise is not every Manchester back pain or neck pain patient’s ‘cup of tea’. Manchester Chiropractic & Sports Injuries knows. Exercise is also so vital to our back and neck pain patient’s recovery and future prevention of the pain. We are with our Manchester chiropractic patients all along the way to get the most of the exercise effort so that it results in pain prevention and relief.
OPTIMAL NECK PAIN EXERCISE GUIDES
Neck pain sufferers know how pain may reduce their neck motion. Such neck pain patients were tested for their cervical range of motion and pain intensity with a flexion-rotation test. They were then instructed to do a 20-minutes cervical spine exercise session. Half of them were then additionally treated with manual therapy applied to the C0-C1 and C2-C3 cervical spine levels. Those who did the exercise program and were treated managed significantly better as far as range of motion, pain intensity reduction, and the flexion-rotation test. (1) Another study found that the optimal stretching time of cervical muscles in patients with chronic myofascial pain syndrome was 30 seconds as opposed to 15 or 60 seconds or no stretching. This allowed the best benefit to pain intensity decrease while diminishing any negative effects on neural function of the affected nerve roots and central nervous system. (2) Manchester Chiropractic & Sports Injuries always stresses that the appropriate exercise done in the right way does not have to take long to be useful! Plus, exercise puts some control in the hands of its sufferer since exercise can be performed anytime.
OPTIMAL LOW BACK PAIN EXERCISE GUIDES
Integrating exercise training into the multidisciplinary treatment of non-specific chronic low back pain does make sense. Such back pain impacts so many people worldwide and is a primary source of disability. Proper exercise training transitions the back pain patient to self-management. Recently, researchers posed that pain intensity and disability - and even mental health struggles in such back pain patients - were enhanced with choices like resistance and aerobic exercise while Pilates, resistance exercise, yoga, and stabilization exercise. (3) Manchester Chiropractic & Sports Injuries agrees! Exercise is invaluable on so many fronts.
