Better sleep. Less anxiety. Back Pain Relief. What links
them together? Exercise! Baton Rouge chiropractic patients come to understand
that acting on this one little suggestion to
exercise – even just walking! – in their Baton Rouge chiropractic
treatment plan benefits in many ways.
TOO LITTLE SLEEP, TOO MUCH PAIN
What’s acknowledged about
the sleep and pain connection? It is acknowledged that
sleep disturbance and depression affect the back pain
patient’s state of mind. Having Baton Rouge
back pain can be disheartening if it continues
for too long (more than 12 weeks) without respite as is the
case in chronic low back pain. (1) Current clinical guidelines all recommend
exercise and physical activity for back pain sufferers. Researchers wondered
if poor sleep prevents these patients from being
physically active. (2) Good question! Other researchers then described
that such a disruption to sleep is associated with physical
inactivity and depression. (2) Sleep allows the body to rest and
rejuventate for the next day’s tasks. Without
sleep, the chronic back pain sufferer attempts
the next day with less than optimal capability. Spine & Sports Rehab Center
desires all Baton Rouge chiropractic care patients to be fully
ready to deal with their Baton Rouge back pain and do what
they can for Baton Rouge back pain relief.
WHAT HELPS SLEEP AND PAIN
Exercise is widely suggested
to Baton Rouge back pain sufferers in aiding their
path to Baton Rouge back pain
relief. Stabilization exercise is reported
to be quite valuable in managing
sleep disturbance, pain-related disability, depression and anxiety for chronic
low back pain patients. In a review of 26 chronic back pain
patients who did stabilization exercise for just 8
weeks straight, everything got better: sleep
quality, disability, depression level, and anxiety level. (1) Another study of
1645 people from 1 to 91 years old found
that better sleep quality is tied to routine
physical activity. This study also learned that patients over 40
years old with chronic diseases like hypertension and diabetes experienced
poorer sleep and yet they spent more time lying down. (3) As your Baton Rouge back pain specialist, your Baton Rouge chiropractor takes a look at the whole Baton Rouge back
pain patient and examines any and all factors when recommending
an exercise strategy personalized for each
