Richmond Chiropractic Treatment Plan Includes Exercise to Prevent Back Pain

September 19, 2017

Chiropractic and back pain relief go together well. (Richmond chiropractic services are plentiful to encourage that combo!) When your Richmond chiropractor tells someone about practicing as a chiropractor, the other person often starts recounting his/her personal story of back pain or leg pain or sciatica or neck pain (or that of a family member)! Your Richmond chiropractor loves it! Richmond back pain sufferers are welcomed to come for Richmond chiropractic care to lessen their current back pain and pick up ways to thwart future episodes that they can use and impart to friends and family. One of the biggest tips Johnson Chiropractic shares is that exercise (the proper type for each individual) works.

Richmond CHIROPRACTIC TREATMENT PLAN WITH EXERCISE HELPS ADULT BACK PAIN

Exercise works to prevent low back pain in most adults. The 12,721 patient study (NHANES) compared those who didn’t do any muscle strengthening activity, did it just one day a week, or did it two days a week. The result: exercising with muscle strengthening activities at least (or rather just) 2 days a week lowers the risk of low back pain. (Side note: Smoking impacts this. Recommendation: Do not smoke.) (1) Johnson Chiropractic knows our Richmond chiropractic patients can find time twice a week for some exercise like this to reduce the odds of low back pain!

Richmond EXERCISE HELPS PREGNANCY-RELATED BACK PAIN

Exercise as an element of the Richmond chiropractic treatment plan at Johnson Chiropractic works for pregnancy-related back pain lessening and prevention. A new study of findings from 11 studies of 2347 pregnant women shares that exercise lessens the risk of low back pain for pregnant women. Sick leave due to low back pain during pregnancy is diminished, too. (2) Johnson Chiropractic knows our Richmond pregnant patients intend to do what is appropriate for their health as well as their baby’s. Exercise may be agreat self-care/baby-care activity!

Richmond EXERCISE HELPS EMPLOYEES

Exercise works for middle-aged employees. Muscle strength increased and low back pain declined in a 5 month study of employees who did at-home exercises. Trunk muscle strength and low back pain bettered in all workers and for those with pre-existing chronic low back pain. Work ability increased, too. (3) Johnson Chiropractic monitors your strength and back pain improvement at your Richmond chiropractic appointments.
