Vancouver Back Pain Care and Exercise Guidelines

January 31, 2024

Guidelines. There are guidelines for everything! This post discusses some of the more recent guidelines for interprofessional teamwork between chiropractors and other healthcare providers to enhance the healing of Vancouver back pain and neck pain sufferers. Exercises are a core part of back pain prevention as well as management that all providers encourage and all providers are concerned aren’t always carried out. Chiropractors like your own at Vancouver Disc Centers are health promoters and work to do that in the kindest, most supportive way! Let’s work together to get you better.

GUIDELINES FOR PHYSICAL ACTIVITY

Quality in healthcare delivery is discussed a lot. Providers and patients want the best quality care possible in delivering care and getting care. Interprofessional collaboration is on the top of the list when researchers evaluate systems for the care of back pain like suitable use of screening and preventive services. (1) Researchers have also put together 70 quality markers for chiropractic delivery that are standardized as well as evidence-based that take into account patient worries and enhanced clinical outcomes. (2) Physical activity certainly is a part of a quality chiropractic healthcare plan for Vancouver pain relief.

BENEFITS OF PHYSICAL ACTIVITY FOR BACK PAIN AND NECK PAIN

In a recent survey, chiropractors conveyed that the biggest concern they held in treating back pain patients was patient follow through (exercises, appointments, at-home recommendations, etc.). (3) In another survey, 90% of chiropractors noted that they had a positive opinion about healthier patient lifestyles. These chiropractors also shared that they were actively involved in promoting physical activity, suggesting exercises to patients for their particular condition, asking how the exercises are going, and counseling patients in the proper manner to do exercises as well as value of doing exercises. (4) One way that patients seem to follow through more positively and be more willing to do physical activity is using a mobile application. Such apps help oversee low back and neck pain patients when they are built around reported pain, pain intensity, and structure of the app like audio explanation and animation of each exercise. (5)  Doing the right exercises in the right way is the most effective.

ADD IN SOME DIAPHRAGMATIC BREATHING!

Core stabilization exercises are commonly recommended to back pain patients. A new study that added in diaphragmatic breathing exercises recorded many advantages for chronic low back pain patients: improved muscle activity, chest expansion, quality of sleep, enhanced disability and physical activity and pain scores, decreased fear avoidance, and higher physical activity, and more. (6) As a part of your healthcare team, your chiropractor at Vancouver Disc Centers feels a duty to promote physical activity so that you can manage your own health a bit more. Our younger Vancouver back pain and neck pain sufferers get positive results. Our older adults who have aches and pains and/or back pain and/or neck pain get positive results, too!
