Relieving Exercise for Montreal Back Pain Relief

August 15, 2017

“Exercise? But my neck (or back) hurts!”

Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic hears you! Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic knows your back hurts. Many Montreal chiropractic patients come for just that reason: Montreal back pain. Back/Neck pain relief - whether because of Montreal spinal stenosis or a Montreal disc herniation whether it’s in the back/neck only or goes down the leg/arm and into the foot/hand - is possible via our combined effort: Montreal chiropractic care including spinal manipulation and exercise.

Montreal SPINAL STENOSIS AND LEG PAIN

Low back pain patients with spinal stenosis and leg pain show decreased cross sectional area of the spinal extensor muscles and fat infiltration on MRI. What does that mean? They have 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). A type of therapeutic exercise known as Perez-Olmedo revealed improvement in 60% of youths with hyperlordosis. (2) Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic checks for such causes and has just the exercise to address the issue.

Montreal NECK PAIN

Neck pain patients experience less neck pain and improved dysfunction neck posture and range of motion with thoracic spine manipulation. The relief continues for up to a half-year post-treatment. (3) This goes to show that spinal manipulation is an important component in Montreal pain relief treatment plans. Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic is skilled at arranging for our Montreal chiropractic patients!

Montreal BACK PAIN

Chronic low back pain patients with marked lower abdominal wall muscular laxity 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 lower abdominal muscles and stubborn low back pain who have not been helped by conservative management. (4) Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic can recommend you some specific 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 treated 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 comparable to a standard supervised exercise program. Such exercise seems to be more successful in getting patients to exercise in the community setting than supervised exercise. (5) If you are one of those Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic is ready to be your community!

Montreal NON-SPECIFIC LOW BACK PAIN

Persistent non-specific low back pain pushes some Montreal back pain patients over the edge…with good reason! Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic gets it! Compared with slight or other interventions Pilates is a superb alternative to try to reduce back pain and ease disability. (7)

Montreal POST-SURGICAL BACK PAIN

Even after back surgery, exercise helps. Aerobic exercise commencing 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 decrease back pain is the important factor. Listen in to a PODCAST that shares how Cox Technic helps relieve post-surgical back pain.
