WALKING AND MIND-BODY THERAPIES: Gentle Exercise Options
Walking works, so do mind-body therapies like yoga. An analysis
of 31 randomized control trials of 3193 participants, walking was
found to be as effective as control interventions for short term relief of
chronic low back pain and slightly superior for intermediate
term pain relief and activity limitation improvement while yoga was more effective
to reduce pain and improve activity
in the short term. Doing both yoga and walking
was proposed as a valuable combination
for chronic low back pain patients. (1) In an analysis of 18
randomized controlled trials, yoga was said
to decrease pain in the short to intermediate term and to improve
functional disability from short to long term when compared with
non-exercise, usual care, and education. But it had equal
effects on pain and disability as other exercise types or physical therapy.
(2) Most everyone can take a stroll. Some like physical
therapy exercise. Most can perform yoga if they so desire.

our Orchard Park, NY back pain sufferer’s "cup of tea”! Options

MOTOR CONTROL EXERCISES
One group of researchers wrote that current
evidence doesn’t propose that any one
form of exercise is better than any other for back
pain relief. That is interesting! They did report that
exercise is modestly effective treatment for CLBP,
a major health and socioeconomic issue (cost,
disability, missed work). The most
common form of exercise for back pain relief was reported as motor control exercise working
on the deep muscles and their coordination. Reportedly not
superior to other forms of exercise, motor control exercise should
be an alternative for chronic low back pain patients among
other forms of exercise. The researchers indicated
that the choice should be up to the patient and his/her doctor/therapist as to what
works. (3) Novelli Wellness Center talks with each Orchard Park, NY back
pain sufferer to find out what exercise will work and will be
done. That is the key!
