Toronto Exercise Helps with Back Pain Relief and Strength
“Doc, what type of exercise do you think would help?”
“The kind that you’ll do!”
There is some humor in that answer, but it’s true, too. Exercise that you’ll do is the most valuable exercise of all! Whether you suffer with Toronto neck pain or Toronto back pain, strengthening exercise comes in handy. Yorkville Chiropractic and Wellness Centre is here to help you figure out what exercise you will do and exercise that will help you.
STRENGTH AND CONDITIONING EXERCISE HELPS
General strength and conditioning exercise helps chronic low back pain patients, especially in terms of pain intensity relief. Comparing general strength and conditioning exercise to motor control exercise with manual therapy revealed that the general exercise was more apt to provide a more assorted range of treatment effects. Specifically, the general exercise bettered trunk endurance, leg muscle strength and endurance, disability, multifidus muscle volume, and fear of movement for chronic low back pain patients. (1) A Cochrane Review of published medical literature revealed that motor control exercise is more effective in decreasing chronic low back pain than minimal intervention, but, alone, motor control exercise does not stand out to be healthier than other exercise or manual therapy for pain relief. (2) What does this mean? General strength and conditioning exercise is helpful to decrease pain by improving the overall body condition. Yorkville Chiropractic and Wellness Centre helps Toronto back pain patients set up an exercise routine that works for them to maximize pain reduction and improve strength.
EXERCISE AND MANIPULATION
Yorkville Chiropractic and Wellness Centre also aims to maximize back pain reduction and strength improvement by combining exercise with chiropractic treatment. Yorkville Chiropractic and Wellness Centre uses The Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain Management to boost such clinical outcomes. A recent report says that blending manipulative treatment with exercise reduced pain and improved functional disability more than exercise only for non-specific neck pain sufferers.
