West Palm Beach Back Pain Relief via Chiropractic Treatment Plan of Manipulation and Exercise

A new clinical trial is underway to evaluate the effectiveness of a 6-week specific rehab program blending education and exercises on walking capacity in patients with lumbar spinal stenosis with neurogenic claudication. Chiropractic Care knows these West Palm Beach spinal pain conditions quite well…and offers a relieving treatment plan of Cox® Technic spinal manipulation and mobilization with exercise!

EXERCISE PROGRAM FOR LUMBAR SPINAL STENOSIS TESTED

The aim of this described study is to investigate whether the addition of an exercise program to an educational program can improve walking capacity in those who are diagnosed with lumbar spinal stenosis with neurogenic claudication. Being a randomized controlled clinical trial, 60 participants will be randomly put in either the control group or the intervention group. The intervention group will receive an educational program and an exercise program, while the control group will only get the educational program. The main outcome measure is walking capacity, while the secondary outcome measures are pain intensity, disability level, and quality of life. (1)  Chiropractic Care knows our West Palm Beach spinal stenosis patients are very interested in these outcomes!

LUMBAR SPINAL STENOSIS WITH NEUROGENIC CLAUDICATION

Lumbar spinal stenosis with neurogenic claudication is a condition that causes narrowing of the spinal canal in the lower back region, resulting in pressure on the nerves. This can lead to pain, numbness, and weakness in the legs and buttocks. In really bad cases, it can also cause difficulty walking. The condition is most common in people over 50 years old. These are just the folks in West Palm Beach who need to keep (or at least start) exercising!

THE EXERCISES

The particular exercises that will be employed in this study are made to enhance walking capacity by stretching and strengthening the muscles surrounding the spine. The hope is that by doing these exercises on a regular basis, patients will have less pain and disability and experience a better quality of life.

THE CONTROL GROUP

The control group in this trial will only receive an educational program about their condition and how to manage it. While education is important, it is not typically enough on its own to deliver significant relief from symptoms. That is why the addition of an exercise program is so important. It includes the back pain sufferer in his or her relief! Listen to this PODCAST with Dr. Michael McMurray on The Back Doctors Podcast with Dr. Michael Johnson as he details The Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain Management for lumbar spinal stenosis.
