When Exercise Based Therapy Doesn't Help…
Exercise is very important, especially as a way to prevent injury and stay strong. But many times when you are hurt, that changes.
When you are having pain and restrictions, you cannot use correct form, even when you try. You are being pulled out of alignment and unconsciously compensate by twisting, lifting or holding incorrectly. At this point, exercise can reinforce dysfunction, and can lead to an increase in pain.
The following order of treatment produces the quickest and longest lasting results:
Pain Reduction / Elimination
Correction of the Mechanism of Injury
Flexibility and then…
Exercise
Endurance
