Richmond WALKING
Walking is valuable
for Richmond living. How often do you think about walking? How often are you grateful
for being able to walk?
Most Richmond folks do not give walking a second thought
until we or a Richmond loved one can not do it or is not able do it as easily as we once
did. Chronic non-specific
low back pain tends to affect
Richmond back pain patients’ motor control while walking. It is suspected that the
erector spinae are working intensely
in these patients, leading to a stiff lumbar-pelvic region
and more difficult time walking.
(1) A new report describes that
spinal manipulation combined with
individualized exercise improves the walking ability in back
pain patients like those Johnson Chiropractic sees every day who are dealing
with
lumbar spinal stenosis better than medical care (medications/epidural
steroid injections) and/or group exercise in the short term.
(2) Further,
spinal manipulation for patients with lumbar radiculopathy (leg pain) also advances
the relief of leg and back pain, disability, range of motion and patient
satisfaction. (3) The Richmond
chiropractic care at Johnson Chiropractic uses
one or all these tactics as needed to get
you the Richmond back pain relief you want and keep
you walking without your giving it a second
thought.
Listen to this PODCAST
with Dr. Dan Shuman on The Back
Doctor’s Podcast with Dr. Michael Johnson about leg pain relief with his
chiropractic care incorporating the Cox® Technic System
and exercise.
Richmond CHIROPRACTIC TIP OF THE MONTH:
Exercise Just a Little Each Week; It Helps!
It doesn’t require much to better
your health, reduce your back pain, and lessen
your encounter with cervical spine disability. It really doesn’t! A new study states
that just 60 minutes of progressive exercise once a week makes
a difference. Such exercise improves overall physical
health and decreases the rate
of cervical disability and low back pain in patients with musculoskeletal pain.
(4) Let’s – you and Johnson Chiropractic - discuss how
you might fill those 60 minutes with effective,
do-able exercises just for you, our Richmond chiropractic patient!
