Have you heard? Exercise is good. Moses Chiropractic bets you
have! Whether we like it or not, we all need to exercise, move, and get
our blood flowing! West Palm Beach chiropractic patients are recommended
to do some type of exercise as part of their whole
treatment plan for hip pain in addition to any related
West Palm Beach back pain with good reason.
It is good!
SPECIFIC EXERCISES FOR SPECIFIC CONDITIONS
Since Moses Chiropractic cares for a lot of
musculoskeletal pain like back pain and neck pain and related arm and leg pain,
new research was quite interesting! It
documented the suggestion and benefit
of exercise for many specific conditions. A list of exercises for
different diseases – musculoskeletal system diseases
like low back pain, hip fracture, osteoarthritis and osteoporosis –
described the preventive and rehabilitative effects for each as
well as the proper intensity and frequency. (1)
Improved knee pain, function and quality of life resulted from
isolated hip and leg strengthening exercises. (2) Moses Chiropractic
welcomes patients with knee, back and hip pain to our
chiropractic practice.
HIP PAIN…OR BACK PAIN?
Hip pain issues happen singularly. Hip
pain issues may occur along with
low back issues like spinal stenosis. Hips xrays alone are not reliable. MRIs are more reliable
for confirming diagnosis. Hip pain may appear similar to lumbar
spinal stenosis. (3) What Moses Chiropractic carefully examines for
are non-spine related issues like avascular necrosis of the hip and hip
fractures so that those may be managed with other healthcare
practitioners as well. Moses Chiropractic makes sure our
patients receive the help they need!
BACK PAIN RELATED HIP PAIN
Patients who have non-specific mechanical low
back pain walk differently due to unique
pelvic, hip and knee movements. They also are less able
to extend their hip flexors and abductor muscles. (4) Researchers further explained that low back pain influenced muscles of the
lumbopelvic area. It’s important for back pain
sufferers. Changes in hip muscles may stem from
alterations in the cross-sectional area and volume of muscle. Why is this of
value? It suggests that development of
exercise programs to improve hip muscle function in back pain
patients is essential. (5) Surgeons are even finding
value in having patients who choose back surgery do
“prehabilitation” exercises before back surgery as it helped improve
range of motion, leg pain intensity, lumbar spine extensor muscle endurance and
walking capacity…with no adverse side effects. (6)
Moses Chiropractic offers treatment programs of exercise combined
with evidence based spinal manipulation and nutrition to avert
back surgery when feasible as well as56 pre-habilitate
and rehabilitate West Palm Beach back pain patients!
