“Doc, what kind of exercise do you think would help?”
“The kind that you’ll do!”
There is some humor in that response,
but it’s true, also.
Exercise that you’ll do is the most valuable exercise
of all! Whether you experience Montreal neck
pain or Montreal back pain, strengthening exercise is
positive. Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic is ready to help you find
exercise you will do and exercise that will help you.
STRENGTH AND CONDITIONING EXERCISE HELPS
General strength and conditioning exercise helps
chronic low back pain patients, particularly in terms of pain
intensity reduction. Comparing general strength and conditioning exercise
to motor control exercise with manual therapy made known
that the general exercise was more apt to deliver a
more assorted range of treatment outcomes.
In particular, the general exercise improved
trunk endurance, leg muscle strength and endurance, disability, multifidus
muscle volume, and fear of doing daily activities for
patients with chronic low back pain. (1) A
Cochrane Review of published medical literature showed that
motor control exercise is more effective in decreasing
chronic low back pain than minimal intervention, but, on its own, motor
control exercise does not show itself to be healthier
than other exercise or manual therapy for pain relief. (2) What
does this mean? General strength and conditioning exercise is helpful
to decrease pain by improving the overall
body condition. Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic helps Montreal back pain patients set
up an exercise practice that works for them to maximize pain reduction and increase strength.
EXERCISE AND MANIPULATION
Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic also aims to maximize
back pain reduction and strength improvement by blending exercise
with chiropractic treatment. Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic uses The Cox® Technic System of
Spinal Pain Management to enhance these clinical outcomes.
A new report states that combining manipulative
treatment with exercise reduced pain and improved functional
disability more than exercise only for non-specific neck
pain sufferers. (3) Together, your Montreal chiropractor and you will
figure out the best suited exercises and the right exercise routine to complement your
Montreal chiropractic treatment plan to get you back to your best
life possible!
