What's Your Exercise "Thing" That You'll Do?
What’s your exercise “thing”? Is “Do this.” or “Which do you prefer?” more appealing to you? We all like options! We all have preferences. Your La Grande chiropractor is prepared to give you options when it involves exercise. Dr. Paulette Hugulet, DC, LLC just wants you to exercise. You pick how! When you get to pick, the outcomes are better with regards to satisfaction and pain relief. Dr. Paulette Hugulet, DC, LLC's chiropractic care is all about you and your La Grande back pain relief.
EXERCISE FOR SATISFACTION
Adding spinal manipulation and/or supervised rehabilitation exercise to home exercise alone for older adults suffering with chronic low back pain enhances their satisfaction with care. (1) Could this come from having a professional check on you and your healing occasionally? If you are doing home exercise alone, you don’t benefit from someone caring for you, checking on your progress objectively, letting you know you are improving. Dr. Paulette Hugulet, DC, LLC is here for our La Grande chronic low back pain patients with spinal manipulation, exercise guidance and objective reassurance. Chronic low back pain is hard to deal with. It often limits what you can do. It tends to also diminish your quality and enjoyment of life.
DO WHAT YOU WANT
Dr. Paulette Hugulet, DC, LLC wants our La Grande back pain patients to do what they want and enjoy what they do. Exercise is essential. Doing a type of exercise that a back pain patient likes increases the possibility that he or she will exercise. What do you like to do? A recent study of older adults – 65 to 85 years – assessed the effectiveness of Pilates exercise to aerobic exercise on a treadmill for chronic low back pain. The study suggests that either will reduce pain and improve balance and function and that Pilates may be more helpful as its exercises are directed at the trunk stabilization muscles. Both ways, having a patient choose an exercise program is the goal to enhance patient care satisfaction, pain reduction and quality of life. (2)
