Back Pain Exercises Can Help Reduce Symptoms and Prevent Future Injuries
Back pain exercises can get you on track for a full recovery and they can even help you avoid future back injuries by building up the muscles around your spine and increasing flexibility. However, choosing the wrong exercises—or performing the right ones incorrectly—can result in serious damage to your back. That’s why you should always consult a doctor or physical therapist before undertaking an exercise regimen to relieve back pain. Your doctor can examine you, issue a proper diagnosis and help you choose some exercises to improve your condition.
These exercises may include:
- Pelvic tilt
- Piriformis stretch
- Knee to chest
- Spinal twist
- Cat
- Cobra
If these back pain exercises don’t ease your pain, your doctor may suggest taking some over-the-counter medication, visiting the chiropractor, or seeking some other type of additional care. If this course of conservative treatment doesn’t work for you, surgery may be suggested. If you find yourself in this position, you may want consider treatment at Laser Spine Institute (LSI).
