Exercise & Pain Relief
If you have back or joint pain, there are probably some times when all you want to do is lie in bed all day. It’s tempting, but it might make the problem worse. Doctors used to prescribe bed rest for back pain and other chronic pain conditions, but studies have found that people who exercise and stay flexible manage their pain much better than those who don’t. If you do have a chronic pain condition like back pain or hip, knee, or shoulder problems, you shouldn’t begin an exercise program without guidance. Check with your physical therapist first. They have the expertise to help you develop an individualized exercise program. Have a professional; a physical therapist show you what is appropriate to do given your condition.
“I have learned a great deal to assist with my ongoing recovery.” “I was referred to Silver Creek by Dr. Thomas Elardo and they were excellent! Bryan Mai was my therapist and he was very excellent with explanations, made me feel very comfortable and is very knowledgable. Seems to be able to tailor to specific needs to assist the patient. I have learned a great deal to assist with my ongoing recovery. The assistant aides were excellent as well! Highly recommend!” - Blake L.
