Tonawanda Knee Pain Relief Tips Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation
Knees and knee pain. Boy, do we work our knees…or at least we should! Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation hears about painful knees nearly as much as we hear about painful backs and necks! Tonawanda knee pain sufferers know the symptoms and feel the same: “I don’t want knee pain!” Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation has some enlightening new research on exercise, chiropractic care, and nutrition to keep knee pain under control.
EXERCISE PROTECTS THE KNEES
If you suffer with Tonawanda knee pain, it may seem that moving the painful knee will only aggravate it more. Many doctors like yours at Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation and researchers hear that! That is fear. Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation understands! Physical activity is good for your knee’s overall health though. Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation will work with you to calm your fear and ensure movement is beneficial! Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation also will tell you again that a sedentary lifestyle may cause more issues and likely end in more joint health troubles. A study that followed people for 8 years found that persistent sitting was not related to knee osteoarthritis while low to moderate level of strenuous physical activity is protective against knee osteoarthritis. If you sit a great deal, exercise, too. It helps. The authors specifically report that long-term strenuous activity participation didn’t raise the incidence of knee osteoarthritis. That is good news! They write cautiously that people who were older, have a greater BMI, more severe pain, weaker quadriceps and depression were not as likely to do any strenuous activities. (1) If that’s you, let’s get past these issues for your knees’ sake! Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation is a great Tonawanda health partner!
QUADRICEPS HELPS THE KNEES
And talk about good partners, quads are to knees! Knees need strong quadriceps. Exercising the quadriceps is wise! A study evaluated younger and older folks performing resistance exercises via machine vs. elastic band. Both succeed! Maximal voluntary contraction of the knee extensors in older folks is higher than that in younger people. Exercise may help the older folks strengthen that muscle so it can persist longer and potentially reduce the muscle loss that normally comes with aging. (2) Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation can lead you to stronger quads!
COORDINATE KNEES AND LIMBS
Have you heard of patellofemoral pain syndrome? It’s a name for a most common musculoskeletal disorder of atypical motor coordination of the limbs that stresses the knees unevenly, putting them at risk of pain. (3) Understanding this helps your Tonawanda chiropractor guide treatment and exercise to assist in coordinating motion. One approach to improving motion is resistance training whose effectiveness can particularly be noted in hopping. Researchers found that hopping demands strong ankles and knees that work together well. Resistance training increases strength and coordination giving rise to gait and knee/ankle benefits. (4) Do not let the child in you hop away just yet! Chat with your Tonawanda chiropractor first!
