KINESIOPHOBIA. Now, there’s a word! It
denote fear that moving may cause pain. It’s something
your Largo chiropractor works with Largo back pain
patients all the time. It’s important to
move and not fear movement. Life is motion. Motion is life. Movement is critical,
and Hollstrom & Associates Inc is all about getting our chiropractic
patients moving and keeping them moving.
FEAR OF MOVING…AND MORE
Chronic back pain does not just alter
the back and spine. It alters the back pain sufferer’s
emotions and physicality, too.
Kinesiophobia is a more extreme fear of pain or re-injury upon movement.
Understandably such fear influences the
back pain sufferer’s quality of life, disability and pain intensity. But by
how much? Researchers say significantly.
(1) Hollstrom & Associates Inc gets it. It is reasonable
to not desire to prompt such back pain if one can avoid
it. Hollstrom & Associates Inc urges slow and gradual
return to usual life motions and to take it one day at
a time.
MOVEMENT IS PART OF THE Largo CHIROPRACTIC TREATMENT
HEALING PLAN
Hollstrom & Associates Inc shares that research studies revealed
improvement in walking capacity with non-surgical care for patients with lumbar
spinal stenosis. This would certainly be welcomed
by Largo back pain patients who have lumbar
spine stenosis, the most common reason for spine surgery in US
adults. Manual therapy and
individualized exercise programs offered greater
short-term symptom improvement, physical function and walking capacity than
medical care or group exercise. (2)
BALANCE, MUSCLE AND BACK PAIN
Individualized treatment plans are superior to reduce
pain and restore motion and function. Doctors like your
Largo chiropractor at Hollstrom & Associates Inc test muscle
activation and balance ability with a one-legged balance posture
in older patients and those with chronic low back pain
because it is known that chronic low back
pain patients and older people are different in their
muscle responses to a variety of physical tasks than those who do not have chronic low back pain. Chronic low back
pain sufferers feel balance issues, too.
Their trunk muscle activation during balance tasks is worse. (3) Hollstrom & Associates Inc
can discover much about Largo back pain patient’s
condition with some of the simplest tests…and
individualize the treatment plan as required: Cox® Technic,
nutrition and exercise.
