No Exercise Often Increases Risk of More Toronto Pain & Disease Progression

Do something. Walk. Stretch. Move. Pain sufferers benefit when they do something. No exercising is a risk for deteriorating pain, both pain in the body and pain in the mind in the form of depression. Yorkville Chiropractic and Wellness Centre takes care of many Toronto back pain patients in pain who also deal with depression. Yorkville Chiropractic and Wellness Centre also recognizes that when our Toronto chiropractic patients do something, they get better in body and mind.

NO EXERCISE INCREASES RISK OF STENOSIS PROGRESSION

Spinal stenosis is a common diagnosis. It is the reduction of the spinal canal area as a result of degeneration. A new study reported that risk of spinal stenosis progression is higher for those who had spondylolisthesis, had pain (in leg and/or back) when walking, and more severe stenosis. The lack of therapeutic exercise was also discovered to a risk factor for the advancement of spinal stenosis. (1) Back pain sufferers like those with spinal stenosis and spondylolisthesis benefit from exercise! Yorkville Chiropractic and Wellness Centre helps each of our chiropractic patients find what exercise is right for them.

EXERCISE ENHANCES FUNCTION

Nonspecific low back pain sufferers enhanced their functional disability level better with stabilization and/or McKenzie exercises than with conventional exercise programs. (2) Notice though that exercise helped, whether or not it was conventional!

EXERCISE IMPROVES DEPRESSION

For many back pain sufferers with specific or non-specific back pain, chronic or not, may well describe themselves as a little down when their back pain sticks around longer than desired. It is not uncommon. Again, exercise to the rescue! Another study reported that exercise (low dose or moderate-dose strength and conditioning) helped reduce depressive symptoms in adults with chronic low back pain. Blending exercise and manual therapy was a bonus! (3) Yorkville Chiropractic and Wellness Centre brings in as many beneficial approaches to back pain relief as possible to help our Toronto back pain patients! The Cox® Technic System of Spine Pain Management is one of those approaches.
