Your chiropractic care doesn’t end when you walk out the clinic door. By practicing corrective exercises at home, your spinal correction can be up to 40% more effective.
Corrective exercises are extremely beneficial to patients who suffer from:
- Lower back pain
- Migraine headaches
- Hip pain
- Hamstring issues
- Neck and shoulder pain
- Other neuromusculoskeletal disorders
We can provide you with a combination of strengthening and stretching exercises that can help you achieve total body wellness sooner than you would with just adjustments alone. These exercises will improve your flexibility and help to correct muscle weaknesses that may have played a role in causing your injury in the first place.
Corrective exercises will only be prescribed when we feel that they will compliment your treatment and improve the healing process. These exercises can easily be performed at home and do not require special equipment. They can include yoga positions, Pilates and strength training that uses your body weight for resistance.
The goals of a corrective pattern sequence are:
- Mobility
- Static Stability
- Dynamic Stability
- Full Re-Patterning of Movement
- Strength
- Power
- Performance
It is important that you follow your corrective exercise routine exactly as it has been given you for it to be most effective as well as prevent further injury.
