Benefits of Pre-Back Surgery Fernandina Beach Chiropractic Care and Exercise
Before undergoing back surgery, Fernandina Beach back pain sufferers will do well to undergo chiropractic care and exercise. Research keeps documenting the usefulness of non-surgical care for back pain relief. Amelia Chiropractic Clinic is the chiropractic care office in Fernandina Beach for both!
CHIROPRACTIC SPINAL MANIPULATION BEFORE BACK SURGERY
Self-care is frequently proposed as first-line treatment for back pain patients. If that does not work, adding non-drug therapy for acute low back pain – spinal manipulation – and for chronic or subacute back pain – spinal manipulation, intensive interdisciplinary rehab, exercise, acupuncture, massage, yoga, cognitive behavioral therapy - is suggested by medical physician organizations like the American College of Physicians and American Pain Society. (1) Amelia Chiropractic Clinic delivers a gentle, evidence-based spinal manipulation treatment called Cox® Technic to relieve back pain that may well help Fernandina Beach back pain sufferers avoid back surgery and manage their back pain more self-sufficiently.
EXERCISE FOR BACK PAIN RELIEF
Back pain sufferers would like to help themselves as much as possible. Amelia Chiropractic Clinic knows this. Exercise is documented to be useful for non-surgical pain relief for patients with spinal stenosis. (2) The right type of exercise is key, so we’ll discuss what’s proper for you! Maybe Pilates would be your “thing”. A study of chronic musculoskeletal pain patients who tried a Pilates-based exercise program found that the pain patients better functioned and managed their pain condition more autonomously and effectively. They performed better at work, took pleasure in hobbies more, were motivated to keep exercising, did more to make do with their own pain conditions without outside help. These, in turn, motivated them to experience a healthier lifestyle. (3) These benefits arose without back surgery.
EXERCISE BEFORE BACK SURGERY
Researchers established a trial of exercise for back pain patients scheduled for back surgery. They explained the back pain condition to the patients carefully. They set up exercise programs for each patient to perform. They found that back pain patients who underwent this pre-surgery program of description and exercise benefitted in several ways: The back pain sufferers noticed improvement exercising than being inactive while waiting for surgery. The back pain sufferers’ disposition got better as they exercised. They had time to mull over their treatment and lifestyle options. Even patients who did not describe symptom improvement responded well to this program as they felt more confident in being able to do some self-management of their pain. (4) These are all beneficial outcomes Fernandina Beach back pain patients discover in their chiropractic care at Amelia Chiropractic Clinic. Control not cure is a realistic goal when coping with back pain.
