Toronto Chiropractic Incorporates Simple Exercise for Back Pain Relief

June 26, 2018

So simple: exercise. For a person who has never exercised or leads a sedentary life, it might be so simple. But for a person with back pain, simple exercise can do so much. Yorkville Chiropractic and Wellness Centre would never persuade our Toronto back pain patients to train for a marathon, but Yorkville Chiropractic and Wellness Centre gently encourages a walk to the mailbox or down the driveway! Yorkville Chiropractic and Wellness Centre encourages simple exercise to our Toronto back pain patients as part of the comprehensive Toronto chiropractic treatment plan for back pain relief.

WHY EXERCISE FOR Toronto BACK PAIN RELIEF?

Yorkville Chiropractic and Wellness Centre knows that exercise (along with spinal manipulation!) adds to the recovery of patients who have undergone Toronto back surgery. In one case study, a patient who had leg pain after back surgery found 89% improvement at a 3 month follow-up after receiving spinal manipulation and exercise care. (1) Yorkville Chiropractic and Wellness Centre makes use of exercise and spinal manipulation through the Cox® Technic system to ease Toronto back pain in sufferers after surgery and to prevent back surgery by decreasing the back pain symptom generators.

HOW DOES EXERCISE HELP Toronto BACK PAIN?

Exercise is a possible treatment for Toronto low back pain, obesity and inflammation symptomatology. How? Adipose, fatty tissue releases several types of cytokines - pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory – which heightens the inflammatory response of C-reactive protein which is associated with musculoskeletal pain perception in back pain sufferers. How does this affect Toronto back pain patients? Overweight patients have a tendency to feel more pain. One particular inflammation marker, prostaglandin E2, causes fever and the sensation of pain and inflammation related to low back pain.  Exercise steps in to control these issues. (2) Bottomline: Toronto back pain patients are advised to exercise, move, be active, to the extent they can. Begin small. Simple stabilization exercises bettered function, inhibited fatigue and improved transverse abdominis contraction in herniated disc back pain patients. (3)  Yorkville Chiropractic and Wellness Centre suggests to start by just taking a walk to the end of the driveway or corner then increasing the distance a little each trip. Running races is not necessary! Toronto back pain patients observe the change!
