Does going for a walk sound like a big pain in the back? For those who struggle with chronic back pain, even the basic task of going for a walk can be overwhelming and painful. Back pain can strike at any time. Whether in the upper back, surrounding the neck and shoulders, or in the lower back at the lumbar or sciatica, back pain is something that no one likes to deal with for too long. Relying on pain medications to help you overcome back pain will leave you disappointed. While pain medications are frequently helpful at alleviating the discomfort of your back pain for a short period of time, they are not capable of resolving the issue that is causing your pain to develop in the first place. The only thing that can actually fix your back pain is addressing the issue that is causing your pain head on. Physical therapy is a great resource for addressing your back pain, and at FYZICAL Therapy & Balance Centers, our balance-focused practices can be a helpful tool in getting you back on your feet. Back pain can affect your overall gait andmobility, making it difficult to stand up straight andmove in the ways you used to be able. So, whether it is following a sudden injury or a chronic issue that has developed over time, physical therapy and balance rehabilitation could be the answers to helping you enjoy life, free of back pain. Walking your Way to a Pain-Free Life. Walking is a great form of exercise, but more than that, it is a necessity of life. When you can’t
walk, even basic tasks become complicated. Getting out of bed in the morning, getting to and from work, moving your way around the office, and even spending time with family on the weekends all rely heavily on your ability to walk. When your back pain begins to interfere with your ability to move around freely, then you know it is time to start doing something about it. Conveniently, walking is more than a goal when it comes to back pain - it could be part of the solution. Working with a physical therapist to develop improved strategies and techniques with your balance and walking could help you to get back on your feet even sooner than you thought possible. What’s more, for those who are able to walk, getting on your feet more often with targeted exercises could help you find relief from back pain even sooner than expected. Whatever the case may be, our balance programs can help get youmoving in the ways that are needed for your specific condition. We will start off slow and build upon your progress, in order to make sure you feel safe and steady at all times.
