Largo Back Pain Relief via Chiropractic Treatment Plan of Manipulation and Exercise
A new clinical trial is underway to evaluate the effectiveness of a 6-week specific rehabilitation program combining education and exercises on walking capacity in those who have lumbar spinal stenosis with neurogenic claudication. Hollstrom & Associates Inc knows these Largo spinal pain conditions very well…and offers a relieving treatment plan of Cox® Technic spinal manipulation and mobilization with exercise!
EXERCISE PROGRAM FOR LUMBAR SPINAL STENOSIS TESTED
The aim of this described study is to investigate whether adding an exercise program to an educational program can enhance walking capacity in patients with lumbar spinal stenosis with neurogenic claudication. This is a randomized controlled clinical trial with 60 participants who will be randomly assigned to either the intervention or control group. The intervention group will receive an educational program plus an exercise program, while the control group will only get the educational program. The main outcome measure is walking capacity, while the secondary outcome measures are pain intensity, disability level, and quality of life. (1) Hollstrom & Associates Inc knows our Largo spinal stenosis patients are very interested in these outcomes!LUMBAR SPINAL STENOSIS WITH NEUROGENIC CLAUDICATION
Lumbar spinal stenosis with neurogenic claudication is a condition that causes narrowing of the spinal canal in the lower back region, which in turn puts pressure on the nerves. This can lead to pain, numbness, and weakness in the legs and buttocks. In really bad cases, it can also make walking quite difficult. The condition is most common in people over the age of 50. These are just the people in Largo who need to keep (or at least begin) exercising!
THE EXERCISES
The particular exercises that will be utilized in this study are designed to improve walking capacity by stretching and strengthening the muscles surrounding the spine. The hope is that by doing these exercises regularly, patients will feel less pain and disability and have a better quality of life.
THE CONTROL GROUP
The control group in this trial will only receive an educational program about their condition and how to control it. While education is valuable, it is not usually enough on its own to provide significant relief from symptoms. That's why the addition of an exercise program is so significant. It involves the back pain patient in his or her relief!
