Benefits of Pre-Back Surgery Fort Wayne Chiropractic Care and Exercise

March 12, 2019

Before undergoing back surgery, Fort Wayne back pain sufferers can benefit from pre-back surgery chiropractic care and exercise. Research keeps documenting the value of non-surgical care for back pain relief. Aaron Chiropractic Clinic is the chiropractic care office in Fort Wayne for both!

CHIROPRACTIC SPINAL MANIPULATION BEFORE BACK SURGERY

Self-care is frequently proposed as initial treatment for back pain patients. If that does not produce the desired results, including non-drug therapy for acute low back pain – spinal manipulation – and for chronic or subacute back pain – spinal manipulation, intensive interdisciplinary rehab, exercise, acupuncture, massage, yoga, cognitive behavioral therapy - is promoted by medical physician organizations like the American College of Physicians and American Pain Society. (1) Aaron Chiropractic Clinic specializes in a gentle, evidence-based spinal manipulation treatment called Cox® Technic for relief of back pain that may well help Fort Wayne back pain sufferers avoid back surgery and control their back pain more independently.

EXERCISE FOR BACK PAIN RELIEF

Back pain sufferers would like to help themselves as much as possible. Aaron Chiropractic Clinic realizes this. Exercise is documented to be valuable for non-surgical pain relief for patients with spinal stenosis. (2) The right form of exercise is key, so we’ll talk about what’s right for you! Maybe Pilates would be your exercise of choice. A study of chronic musculoskeletal pain patients who tried a Pilates-based exercise program discovered that the pain patients better functioned and managed their pain condition more independently and effectively. They did better at work, enjoyed hobbies more, were motivated to keep exercising, did more to manage their own pain conditions without outside help. These, in turn, motivated them to enjoy a healthier way of life. (3) These benefits resulted without back surgery.

EXERCISE BEFORE BACK SURGERY

Researchers established a trial of exercise for back pain patients headed to back surgery. They described the back pain condition to the patients carefully. They established exercise programs for each patient to do. They found that back pain patients who experienced this pre-surgery program of description and exercise benefitted in several ways: The back pain sufferers felt better exercising than being inactive while waiting for surgery. The back pain sufferers’ mental state improved as they exercised. They had time to mull over their treatment and lifestyle options. Even patients who did not report symptom improvement reacted well to this program as they felt more confident managing their pain themselves. (4) These are all positive outcomes Fort Wayne back pain patients find in their chiropractic care at Aaron Chiropractic Clinic. Control not cure is a reasonable objective when dealing with back pain.
