Applying Chiropractic and Exercise to Make Your Spine Healthy
I offer remedies for a lot of various injuries. Common injuries that cause neck pain, back pain, bad headaches and sciatica among other things, consist of vehicle accidents, injuries connected to work, being hurt while performing household chores, and occasionally just sleeping in a weird position.
I would estimate that over half of my patients suffering from back pain and neck pain have the same question, “What changes can I make to prevent this from occurring again?” Their concerns led to the development of this article and the points I address in my posting.
There’s nothing like intense back pain or neck pain to induce someone to take action about their health.
People in pain normally start being proactive about their health. It is common for people to ask what exercises or stretches they can begin to relieve symptoms. Many people are disappointed to learn that the best remedy for a new injury is the use of ice packs along with rest for the injured body area.
During more than 15 years of chiropractic experience, I have seen many clients not heed my advice, and wind up worsening their condition. Most of us should begin exercising and stretching our backs when it is not in acute pain.
The hardest thing I face in my practice is getting my patients to exercise and change their eating habits. In order to help to prevent or diminish the chances of developing back pain, exercise is one of those things a patient can do at home without seeking chiropractic care.
You should engage in exercise cautiously following an injury, making sure you feel absolutely no pain. You should start slowly with low intensity exercises, and gradually build up to more resistance only when you feel absolutely no pain.
You must keep in mind that your exercise routine needs to be sensible if you are recovering from a back injury. Make sure you stretch and exercise under the supervision of a health care expert. Necessary stability is provided to your spine by flexible and strong muscles which then support to your spine.
A routine of stretching and targeted exercises is almost always one of my first recommendations to a new patient. When you combine chiropractic care with stretching and exercising, you will have faster and more complete healing.
