Chiropractors like your own at Yorkville Chiropractic and Wellness Centre are health promoters and work to do that in the nicest, most caring way! Let us work together to get you better.

GUIDELINES FOR PHYSICAL ACTIVITY

Everything in healthcare is about quality. Providers and patients desire the best quality care possible in delivering care and getting care. Interprofessional collaboration is on the top of the list when researchers analyze systems for the care of back pain like proper use of screening and preventive services. (1) Researchers have also assembled 70 quality indicators for chiropractic delivery that are standardized as well as evidence-based that take into consideration patient worries and enhanced clinical outcomes. (2) Physical activity surely is a part of a quality chiropractic healthcare plan for Toronto pain relief.

BENEFITS OF PHYSICAL ACTIVITY FOR BACK PAIN AND NECK PAIN

In a recent survey, chiropractors reported that the biggest concern they had in treating back pain patients was patient follow through (coming to appointments, doing exercises, following at-home instructions, etc.). (3) In another survey, 90% of chiropractors noted that they were optimistic about healthier patient lifestyles. These chiropractors also reported that they were actively engaged in promoting physical activity, suggesting exercises to patients for their particular issue, asking how the exercises are going, and advising patients in the proper manner to do exercises as well as benefit that comes from exercising. (4) One way that patients seem to respond more positively and be more willing to do physical activity is the use of a mobile application. Such apps help oversee low back and neck pain patients when they are built around reported pain, pain intensity, and structure of the app like audio explanation and animation of each exercise. (5)  Doing the right exercises in the right way typically brings about the rightfully desired outcome.

ADD IN SOME DIAPHRAGMATIC BREATHING!

Core stabilization exercises are commonly recommended to back pain patients. One new study that added in diaphragmatic breathing exercises noted many advantages for chronic low back pain patients: improved muscle activity, chest expansion, quality of sleep, improved disability and physical activity and pain scores, reduced fear avoidance, and better physical activity, among others. (6) As a part of your healthcare team, your chiropractor at Yorkville Chiropractic and Wellness Centre feels a duty to promote physical activity so that you can manage your own health a bit more.
