Chiropractic care for any condition typically includes a combination of treatment methods to achieve optimal results. One of these methods is corrective exercise and it can help reduce your pain and help you quickly return to the activities you love. At Ages Chiropractic, which serves North Hollywood, Hollywood, Burbank, Toluca Lake, Studio City, and Sherman Oaks, CA, you will learn why corrective exercises are an integral part of chiropractic care.
What Are Corrective Exercises?
Corrective exercises include targeted movements designed and utilized to correct an issue with flexibility, mobility, and posture. Any condition typically produces problems within the soft tissues of the body. Sometimes, the tissues have become tense and inflexibly, however, they can also weaken and not function properly. This can have a significant impact on your health and overall quality of life. You may feel pain, balance problems, affected athletic performance, and may not be bale to complete specific tasks throughout the day. Corrective exercises are designed to target problems within the soft tissue to eliminate the negative impact they have on your life.
When Are Corrective Exercises Recommended in Chiropractic Care?
Our chiropractor will most likely recommend corrective exercised in almost all treatment plans. Even if you encounter chronic headaches, you can benefit from targeted stretching and strengthening exercises. The program we provide is not incense and the exercises are personalized to your condition and abilities. We typically begin with gentle movements and increase the intensity over time.
For a better understanding of corrective exercises, imagine you’ve sustained a sports injury in your shoulder. This injury has made it difficult to even lift your arm above your head and makes it almost impossible to throw a ball or swing a bat. As part of your physical rehabilitation, you will utilize corrective exercises that stretch your arm and slowly improve your range of motion. After your flexibility has increased, strengthening exercises will be added to the plan, however, only as much as your shoulder can endure. Your muscles will continue to grow stronger in time and you’ll be able to increase the exercises. Eventually, the exercises can be adjusted to help with recovery and improve your athletic performance.
