GUIDELINES FOR PHYSICAL ACTIVITY

Quality in healthcare delivery is talked about so much. Providers and patients desire the highest quality care possible in delivering care and receiving care. Interprofessional collaboration is on the top of the list when researchers assess systems for the care of back pain like suitable use of screening and preventive services. (1) Researchers have also put together 70 quality indicators for chiropractic delivery that are standardized and evidence-based that take into account patient concerns and enhanced clinical outcomes. (2) Physical activity surely is a part of a quality chiropractic healthcare plan for Carrolltown pain relief.

BENEFITS OF PHYSICAL ACTIVITY FOR BACK PAIN AND NECK PAIN

In a recent survey, chiropractors reported that the biggest concern they held in managing back pain patients was patient follow through (exercises, appointments, at-home recommendations, etc.). (3) In another survey, 90% of chiropractors noted that they were optimistic about healthier patient lifestyles. These chiropractors also reported that they were actively involved in promoting physical activity, suggesting exercises to patients for their particular issue, inquiring how the exercises are going, and counseling patients in the proper way to do exercises as well as value of doing exercises. (4) One way that patients seem to respond more positively and be more willing to do physical activity is the use of a mobile app. Such apps help manage low back and neck pain patients when they are built around reported pain, pain intensity, and structure of the app like audio explanation and animation of each exercise. (5)  Doing the right exercises in the right way is the most helpful.

ADD IN SOME DIAPHRAGMATIC BREATHING!

Core stabilization exercises are usually recommended to back pain patients. One new study that incorporated diaphragmatic breathing exercises found many advantages for chronic low back pain patients: improved muscle activity, chest expansion, quality of sleep, improved disability and physical activity and pain scores, reduced fear avoidance, and better physical activity, and more. (6) As a partner on your healthcare team, your chiropractor at Gormish Chiropractic & Rehabilitation feels a responsibility to encourage physical activity so that you can take care of you.
