La Grande WALKING
Walking is vital
for La Grande living. How often do you think about walking? How many times are you thankful
for being able to walk?
Most La Grande folks do not give walking a second thought
until we or a La Grande loved one can’t do it or isn’t able do it as easily as we once
did. Chronic non-specific
low back pain tends to affect
La Grande back pain patients’ motor control when
trying to walk normally. It’s suspected that the
erector spinae are operating intensely
in these patients, resulting in a stiff lumbar-pelvic region
and tougher time walking.
(1) A new report points
out that
spinal manipulation in combination with
individualized exercise enhances the walking ability in back
pain patients like those Dr. Paulette Hugulet, DC, LLC sees every day who are dealing
with
lumbar spinal stenosis better than medical care (medications/epidural
steroid injections) and/or group exercise in the short term.
(2) Further,
spinal manipulation for patients with lumbar radiculopathy (leg pain) also promotes
the relief of leg and back pain, disability, range of motion and patient
satisfaction. (3) The La Grande
chiropractic care at Dr. Paulette Hugulet, DC, LLC uses
one or all these approaches as needed to get
you the La Grande back pain relief you want and keep
you walking without your giving it a second
thought.
Listen to this PODCAST
with Dr. Dan Shuman on The Back
Doctor’s Podcast with Dr. Michael Johnson about leg pain relief with his
chiropractic care using the Cox® Technic System
and exercise.
La Grande CHIROPRACTIC TIP OF THE MONTH:
Exercise Just a Little Each Week; It Helps!
It doesn’t require much to better
your health, decrease your back pain, and lessen
your encounter with cervical spine disability. It really doesn’t! A recent study says
that just 60 minutes of progressive exercise one time a week causes
a difference. Such exercise improves overall physical
health and decreases the occurrence
of cervical disability and low back pain in patients with musculoskeletal pain.
(4) Let us – you and Dr. Paulette Hugulet, DC, LLC - discuss how
you might spend those 60 minutes with useful,
do-able exercises just for you, our La Grande chiropractic patient!
