Orlando Chiropractor explains that exercise, by definition, means purposeful movement. Although many kinds of exercise for the spine exist, certain exercises may not be necessarily therapeutic for you. Spinal exercise prescription for your condition is based upon the stage of your condition (acute, chronic, settled), the type of condition (soft tissue injury, mechanical, disc, nerve injury), and your age. Remember, an exercise prescription is just that; its a prescription. Very little benefit will be obtained with nonspecific, over the counter exercise programs. In fact, some of these programs may be harmful to your back or neck.
The purposes of therapeutic exercise prescription are to:
*Increase muscular flexibility
*Normalize and balance muscle tone by increasing oxygen rich blood flow to the tissue.
*Integrate muscle activity.
*Restore functional movement.
*Restore functional muscle strength and endurance.
*Decrease pain.
*Minimize the chances of reoccurrence.
Orlando Chiropractor explains that postural re-education activities may also be prescribed as poor postural attitudes may contribute to the onset and reoccurrence of spinal alignment will be given. Your understanding of the purpose, proper application, and adherence to each prescribed exercise will be essential to the development of a positive outcome.
