What's Your Exercise "Thing" That You'll Do?

July 02, 2019

What’s your exercise “thing”? Is “Do this.” or “Which do you prefer?” more appealing to you? We all like options! We all have favorites. Your West Des Moines chiropractor is prepared to give you options when it involves exercise.  Executive Chiropractic of Iowa just hopes you exercise. You decide how! When you choose, the results are better in terms of satisfaction and pain relief. Executive Chiropractic of Iowa's chiropractic care is all about you and your West Des Moines back pain relief.

EXERCISE FOR SATISFACTION

Including spinal manipulation and/or supervised rehabilitation exercise to home exercise alone for older adults suffering with chronic low back pain improves their satisfaction with care. (1) Could this come from having a professional check on you and your healing occasionally? If you are performing home exercise all by yourself, you don’t benefit from someone caring for you, checking on your progress objectively, confirming that you are healing. Executive Chiropractic of Iowa is here for our West Des Moines chronic low back pain patients with spinal manipulation, exercise supervision and objective reassurance. Chronic low back pain is hard to deal with. It often limits what you can do. It tends to also reduce your quality and enjoyment of life.

DO WHAT YOU WANT

Executive Chiropractic of Iowa wishes our West Des Moines back pain patients to perform what they desire and enjoy what they do. Exercise is essential. Performing a type of exercise that a back pain patient likes increases the probability that he or she will exercise. What do you enjoy doing? A recent study of older adults – 65 to 85 years – assessed the usefulness of Pilates exercise to aerobic exercise on a treadmill for chronic low back pain. The study proposes that either will reduce pain and improve balance and function and that Pilates may be more successful since its exercises aim at the trunk stabilization muscles. Both ways, matching patient preference to an exercise program is the goal to enhance patient care satisfaction, pain reduction and quality of life. (2)
