WALKING AND MIND-BODY THERAPIES: Gentle Exercise Options
Walking works, so do mind-body therapies like yoga. An analysis of 31 randomized control trials of 3193 participants, walking came across as effective as control interventions for short term relief of chronic low back pain and slightly superior for intermediate term pain relief and activity limitation improvement while yoga was more effective for pain and activity limitation improvement in the short term. Combining both walking and yoga was proposed as a valuable combination for CLBP patients. (1) In an analysis of 18 randomized controlled trials, yoga was reported to decrease pain in the short to intermediate term and to improve functional disability from short to long term compared to non-exercise, usual care, and education. However it had the same effects on pain and disability as other exercise types or physical therapy. (2) Most everyone can walk. Some like physical therapy exercise. Most can do yoga if they so desire. Amelia Chiropractic Clinic knows not every exercise option may be our Fernandina Beach back pain sufferer’s "cup of tea”! Options are essential to participation...and Amelia Chiropractic Clinic has them!
MOTOR CONTROL EXERCISES
One group of researchers wrote that up-to-date evidence does not indicate that any one form of exercise is better than any other for back pain relief. That is interesting! They did report that exercise is modestly effective treatment for CLBP, a major health and socioeconomic issue (cost, disability, missed work). The most common form of exercise for back pain relief was described as being motor control exercise working on the deep muscles and their coordination. Reportedly not superior to other types of exercise, motor control exercise should be an alternative for chronic low back pain patients among other kinds of exercise. The researchers indicated that the choice should be made by the patient in collaboration with his/her doctor/therapist. (3) Amelia Chiropractic Clinic chats with each Fernandina Beach back pain sufferer to learn about what exercise will work and will be done. That is the most important factor!
