“Exercise? Didn’t you hear me say my back (or neck)
hurts?”
Hollstrom & Associates Inc hears you! Hollstrom & Associates Inc knows your back
hurts. Many Largo chiropractic patients come for just that motivation:
Largo back pain. Back/Neck pain relief - whether due
to Largo spinal stenosis or a Largo disc
herniation whether it is in the back/neck only or goes
down the leg/arm and into the foot/hand - is possible through our joint
effort: Largo chiropractic care including spinal manipulation and
exercise.
Largo SPINAL STENOSIS AND LEG PAIN
Low back pain patients with spinal stenosis and leg pain have more fatty areas and
less extensor muscles on MRI. What does that mean? They have
a loss of muscle power in the low back when pain bothers a patient.
(1) One of the causes of low back pain is lumbar hyperlordosis (sway back). One
type of therapeutic exercise known as Perez-Olmedo showed improvement
in 60% of youths with hyperlordosis. (2) Hollstrom & Associates Inc looks for
such causes and has just the exercise to address the issue.
Largo NECK PAIN
Neck pain patients experience less neck pain and improved
dysfunction neck posture and range of motion with thoracic spine manipulation.
The relief lasts up to a half-year later.
(3) This goes to show that spinal manipulation is an essential
component in Largo pain relief treatment plans.
Hollstrom & Associates Inc is excellent at arranging for our Largo chiropractic patients!
Largo BACK PAIN
Chronic low back pain patients with weak stomach
muscles were treated
with abdominoplasty (a “tummy tuck”). This
tightens and stabilizes the ab muscles by making the muscles work better and
increase intraabdominal pressure to
make them better spine stabilizers. Such abdominal strengthening should be considered
a way for patients with weak lower abdominal muscles and stubborn low back pain who have been unsuccessful with conservative management. (4)
Hollstrom & Associates Inc can recommend you some specific
exercises that will be just right for you before resorting to a surgery!
INTERMITTENT CLAUDICATION (cramp-like pain in the legs upon
exercise like walking)
Peripheral artery disease patients with intermittent
claudication were treated with a home-based exercise program a
supervised exercise program and usual-care control. Both exercise programs had
patients exercise with a step activity monitor for 12 weeks. The patients continued with these programs which both proved useful
in improving claudication measures similar to a standard
supervised exercise program. Such exercise seems to be more successful
in getting patients to exercise in the
community setting than supervised exercise. (5) If you are one of those Hollstrom & Associates Inc
is ready to be your community!
Largo NON-SPECIFIC
LOW BACK PAIN
Persistent non-specific low back pain pushes some
Largo back pain patients over the edge…with good reason! Hollstrom & Associates Inc
gets it! Compared with slight or other interventions Pilates is a
good option to try to reduce back pain and improve disability. (7)
Largo POST-SURGICAL BACK PAIN
Even after back surgery, exercise eases pain. Aerobic
exercise beginning one month after first time
single-level lumbar microdiscectomy resulted in a more distinct
functional improvement than home exercise. (8) Whatever it takes to help reduce
back pain is the important factor. Listen in to a PODCAST that shares how Cox Technic helps relieve post-surgical back pain. Hollstrom & Associates Inc will help you explore
the best exercise choice for you!
