West Des Moines Exercise May Be Inspired by Social Interaction & Listening Docs

January 21, 2020

What inspires you to exercise? Everybody’s different. Pain relief, social interaction, a listening, attentive healthcare provider who’s encouraging you to exercise, feeling like you are heard and understood all help. There is something for everyone! Executive Chiropractic of Iowa works to inspire our West Des Moines back pain patients to exercise to keep their back pain at bay.

OLDER BACK PAIN PATIENTS’ INSPIRATION TO EXERCISE

Lumbar spinal stenosis is one aggravating back pain problem! Older adults really feel its effect as it curbs their ability to walk and do other daily activities. A research project contrasted three approaches: medical care, community-based group exercise, and clinic based manual therapy and personalized exercise. All the participants stated that exercise bettered their pain levels and function but that these effects were temporary. They had to keep doing them. The most common reasons for not carrying on with these activities were additional health problems and transportation. The medical care approach had little to no effect. The community group exercise provided social support and participants kept going to these classes after the study. These back pain patients stated that the doctor’s ability to relate to them and listen to their concerns were so important. (1) Executive Chiropractic of Iowa wants to listen, inspire, and see our West Des Moines back pain patients get West Des Moines back pain relief with chiropractic care and exercise.

HOW MUCH YOU EXERCISE INSPIRES EXERCISE

Another study found that six weeks of twice-a-week (more so than one time a week or home exercise alone) supervised physical therapy resulted in significant short-term improvements in symptom severity, physical function, back and leg pain, and gait disturbance. (2) It comes back to the classic paper by Weber who pointed out that 90% of disc herniation with sciatica patients responded to active, energetic, non-operative care.
