Minster Chiropractic Center Calms Patients Fear Of Returned Back Pain With Chiropractic Care
KINESIOPHOBIA. Now, there’s a word! It means fear that moving may cause pain. It’s something your Minster chiropractor works with Minster back pain patients every day. It’s vital to move and not fear movement. Life is motion. Motion is life. Movement is necessary, and Minster Chiropractic Center is all about getting our chiropractic patients moving and keeping them moving.
FEAR OF MOVING…AND MORE
Chronic back pain doesn’t just alter the back and spine. It influences the back pain sufferer’s emotions and physicality, too. Kinesiophobia is a more extreme fear of pain or re-injury upon movement. No doubt such fear alters the back pain sufferer’s quality of life, disability and pain intensity. But just how much? Researchers report significantly. (1) Minster Chiropractic Center gets it. It’s wise to not want to prompt such back pain if one can avoid it. Minster Chiropractic Center urges slow and gradual return to usual life motions and to take it one day at a time.
MOVEMENT IS PART OF THE Minster CHIROPRACTIC TREATMENT HEALING PLAN
Minster Chiropractic Center reports that research studies revealed improvement in walking capacity with non-surgical care for patients with lumbar spinal stenosis. This would certainly be well received by Minster back pain patients suffering with lumbar spine stenosis, the most common cause of spine surgery in US adults. Manual therapy and individualized exercise programs delivered better short-term symptom improvement, physical function and walking capacity than medical care or group exercise. (2)
BALANCE, MUSCLE AND BACK PAIN
Individualized treatment plans are superior to decrease pain and restore motion and function. Doctors like your Minster chiropractor at Minster Chiropractic Center assess muscle activation and balance ability with a one-legged balance posture in older patients and those with chronic low back pain because it’s established that chronic low back pain patients and older people are different in their muscle responses to a variety of physical tasks than those who do not have chronic low back pain. Chronic low back pain sufferers face balance issues, too. Their trunk muscle activation during balance tasks is lower.
