Cross Chiropractic Center Calms Patients Fear Of Returned Back Pain With Chiropractic Care

KINESIOPHOBIA. Now, there’s a word! It denote fear that moving may cause pain. It’s something your Sandy Springs chiropractor works with Sandy Springs back pain patients every day. It’s vital to move and not fear movement. Life is motion. Motion is life. Movement is critical, and Cross Chiropractic Center is all about getting our chiropractic patients moving and keeping them moving.

FEAR OF MOVING…AND MORE

Chronic back pain does not just alter the back and spine. It influences the back pain sufferer’s emotions and physicality, too.  Kinesiophobia is a more extreme fear of pain or re-injury upon movement. Understandably such fear alters the back pain sufferer’s quality of life, disability and pain intensity. But just how much? Researchers write that it is altered significantly. (1) Cross Chiropractic Center gets it. It’s wise to not desire to prompt such back pain if one can avoid it. Cross Chiropractic Center urges slow but sure return to everyday life motions and to do it one day at a time.

MOVEMENT IS PART OF THE Sandy Springs CHIROPRACTIC TREATMENT HEALING PLAN

Cross Chiropractic Center reports that research studies divulged improvement in walking capacity with non-surgical care for patients with lumbar spinal stenosis. This would certainly be well received by Sandy Springs back pain patients who have lumbar spine stenosis, the most common cause of spine surgery in US adults.  Manual therapy and individualized exercise programs provided better short-term symptom improvement, physical function and walking capacity than medical care or group exercise.

BALANCE, MUSCLE AND BACK PAIN

Individualized treatment plans are superior to decrease pain and return motion and function. Doctors like your Sandy Springs chiropractor at Cross Chiropractic Center assess muscle activation and balance ability with a one-legged balance posture in older patients and those with chronic low back pain because it is established that chronic low back pain patients and older people respond with different muscle responses to a variety of physical tasks than those who don’t have chronic low back pain. Chronic low back pain sufferers feel balance issues, too. Their trunk muscle activation during balance tasks is worse.
