Minster Exercise Helps with Back Pain Relief and Strength

July 14, 2020

“Doc, what kind of exercise do you think would help?”

“The kind that you’ll do!”

There is some humor in that answer, but there is some truth in it, also. Exercise that you will do is the most useful exercise of all! Whether you experience Minster neck pain or Minster back pain, strengthening exercise comes in handy. Minster Chiropractic Center is ready to help you find exercise you will do and exercise that will benefit you.

STRENGTH AND CONDITIONING EXERCISE HELPS

General strength and conditioning exercise helps chronic low back pain patients, especially in terms of pain intensity reduction. Comparing general strength and conditioning exercise to motor control exercise with manual therapy revealed that the general exercise tended to provide a more assorted range of treatment outcomes. Specifically, the general exercise bettered trunk endurance, leg muscle strength and endurance, disability, multifidus muscle volume, and fear of movement in patients with chronic low back pain. (1) A Cochrane Review of published medical literature showed that motor control exercise is more efficient in reducing chronic low back pain than minimal intervention, but, alone, motor control exercise does not show itself to be better than other exercise or manual therapy for pain relief. (2) What does this mean? General strength and conditioning exercise is helpful for pain reduction by boosting the overall body condition. Minster Chiropractic Center helps Minster back pain patients set up an exercise practice that works for them to maximize pain reduction and increase strength.

EXERCISE AND MANIPULATION

Minster Chiropractic Center also aims to get the most back pain reduction and strength improvement by blending exercise with chiropractic treatment. Minster Chiropractic Center uses The Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain Management to enrich such clinical outcomes. A recent report says that combining manipulative treatment with exercise reduced pain and improved functional disability more than exercise by itself for non-specific neck pain sufferers.
