Plainville Back Surgery Patients Must Exercise
10,080 minutes are in a week. What do you do with all those minutes? Sleep, eat, talk, work, listen, shop, drive…exercise? Isn’t exercise number one on your list?! It’s recommended that we all exercise at least 150 minutes a week. (6) That’s only
- 2 and a half hours a week.
- 5 sessions of 30 minutes a week.
- 10 sessions of 15 minutes a week.
It’s not that much, but we need to schedule it into our busy lives, do we not? Even your Plainville chiropractor needs to do that! Time goes by so quickly for all of us, including time for your Plainville chiropractic physician at Layden Chiropractic. Your Plainville chiropractic physician at Layden Chiropractic encourages Plainville chiropractic patients to continue doing their exercise routines even when they are feeling better and their back pain is better.

Layden Chiropractic encourages you to see the positives!
Exercise is life-giving. Exercise is life-supporting. Exercise is all that for normal spine folks but even more crucial for Plainville back pain sufferers especially for Plainville post-back surgery patients who still have back pain. Post-surgical patients who exercise 150 minutes a week show a significant decrease in pain and reoperation rate reports a new study of post-surgery back pain patients. In this study the mean age was 57 years old. 80% of them had degenerative diagnoses. 63% had gone through a multilevel back surgery. Only 35% of them met the greater than 1400 kcal a week exercise expenditure and left them open to a second surgery (named a revision surgery). Only 26% of post back surgery patients met the more than 150 minutes a week of exercise opening them to the risk of degenerative diagnoses, subsequent spine surgery, and more postoperative back pain. (6) 150 minutes a week does not sound like much anymore, does it? Layden Chiropractic knows our Plainville chiropractic patients can find 2.5 hours a week for their back’s sake. It's part of the whole Plainville treatment plan of chiropractic care.
