Relieving Exercise for Largo Back Pain Relief
“Exercise? But my neck (or back) hurts!”
Hollstrom & Associates Inc hears you! Hollstrom & Associates Inc knows your back hurts. Many Largo chiropractic patients come for just that reason: Largo back pain. Back/Neck pain relief - whether due to Largo spinal stenosis or a Largo disc herniation whether it is in the back/neck only or goes down the leg/arm and into the foot/hand - is possible through our combined effort: Largo chiropractic care including spinal manipulation and exercise.
Largo SPINAL STENOSIS AND LEG PAIN
Low back pain patients with spinal stenosis and leg pain have more fatty areas and less extensor muscles on MRI. What does that mean? There is a a loss of muscle power in the low back when pain is present. (1) One of the causes of low back pain is lumbar hyperlordosis (sway back). One type of therapeutic exercise known as Perez-Olmedo showed improvement in 60% of youths with hyperlordosis. (2) Hollstrom & Associates Inc looks for such causes and has just the exercise to tackle the issue.
Largo NECK PAIN
Neck pain patients experience less neck pain and improved dysfunction neck posture and range of motion with thoracic spine manipulation. The relief lasts up to 6 months later. (3) This just shows that spinal manipulation is an important component in Largo pain relief treatment plans. Hollstrom & Associates Inc is experienced at arranging for our Largo chiropractic patients!
Largo BACK PAIN
Chronic low back pain patients with weak stomach muscles were cared for with abdominoplasty (a “tummy tuck”). This produces a spine-stabilizing effect by tightening the muscles increasing intraabdominal pressure and increasing the efficiency of these muscles to make them better spine stabilizers. Such abdominal strengthening should be considered a way for patients with weak abs and stubborn low back pain who have been unsuccessful with conservative management. (4) Hollstrom & Associates Inc can offer you some individualized exercises that will be just right for you before resorting to a surgery!
INTERMITTENT CLAUDICATION (cramp-like pain in the legs upon exercise like walking)
Peripheral artery disease patients with intermittent claudication were cared for with a home-based exercise program a supervised exercise program and usual-care control. Both exercise programs had patients exercise with a step activity monitor for 12 weeks. The patients stuck with these programs which both proved productive in improving claudication measures similar to a standard supervised exercise program. Such exercise appears more effective in getting patients to exercise in the community setting than supervised exercise. (5) If you are one of those Hollstrom & Associates Inc is prepared to be your community!
Largo NON-SPECIFIC LOW BACK PAIN
Persistent non-specific low back pain pushes some Largo back pain patients over the edge…with good reason! Hollstrom & Associates Inc gets it! Compared with minimal or other interventions Pilates is a superb alternative to try to decrease back pain and ease disability. (7)
Largo POST-SURGICAL BACK PAIN
Even after back surgery, exercise eases pain. Aerobic exercise beginning one month after first time single-level lumbar microdiscectomy resulted in a more marked functional improvement than home exercise. (8) Whatever it takes to help reduce back pain is the important factor. Listen in to a PODCAST that shares how Cox Technic helps relieve post-surgical back pain.
