Learning how to use your body properly is an essential part of our approach to your health. Individualized exercise programs are tailored to your specific situation. These exercises become an integral part not only of getting well, but staying well. Emphasis is on improving the strength and flexibility of your body, in particular your spine.
Recent research shows that a specialized exercise program is valuable for patients with persistent back and neck pain. In fact, studies show that the chance of reoccurrence can be reduced by as much as 80% by proper rehabilitation of the supporting muscles. This kind of training now forms an important part of the treatment offered by our practice.
