“I’m 60/65/70/75/80
years old. Do I have to keep exercising?” You sure do! The old
saying of “move it or lose it” applies! Exercise is an integral
part of the Vancouver chiropractic treatment plan at Vancouver Spine Care Centre.
And we know our Vancouver chiropractic patients waver
on their commitment to exercise. We get it and keep cultivating
our patients’ commitment to keep moving. We are confident
that once you realize how good you feel with exercise as part of your daily life, you will keep doing it!
EXERCISE FOR POST-MENOPAUSAL WOMEN
For post-menopausal women it
is even more valuable to keep exercising. In the
latest|a recent study of post-menopausal women with vertebral
fractures, spinal pain, back extensor muscle strength, trunk-arm endurance,
kyphosis, functional mobility, and quality of life all get
better with exercise, specifically a supervised rather
than a home-based exercise plan.
(1) Would you agree with Vancouver Spine Care Centre that if someone is supervising
your exercise, you’ll be more likely to exercise and more likely
to do it right? We all need a little extra prompting to
do what we ought to do at times.
Vancouver Spine Care Centre does that for our Vancouver back pain patients!
EXERCISE FOR ALL BACK PAIN SUFFERERS
No matter their age, Vancouver
back pain patients do better with exercise. Reviewers of the
exercise-for-back-pain-relief medical literature give in to
the published facts and suggest that patients
do exercises they enjoy and can do easily.
Research’s best-evidence on rehabilitation for chronic low back
pain states that spinal manipulation and pain neuroscience
education combined with exercise with or without psychological
therapy is useful. Adding
the psychological component to exercise seems to generate
better outcomes that last longer. (2) It is never a bad idea|It never hurts to reach out for help with the emotional aspect of back pain and
neck pain. Vancouver Spine Care Centre values the opportunity to guide
back pain patients to get the care they desire.
