Pain Management: Top Exercises for Spine Problems
Exercises for spinal problems can be broadly categorised into:
For pain relief - McKenzie exercises - This method, involves mechanical diagnosis and therapy, is scientifically proven, and is used widely across the world for patients with spinal problems.
For improving neural mobility - Neurodynamic exercises, using Shacklock's techniques
Specific spinal training, these exercises focus on improving strength, mobility and imbalances, which may be present in the spine. It also works on improving neuro-muscular co-ordination and spinal control.
For enhancing spinal health - Exercises using a medicine ball, therabands, free weights, balance training exercises on foam pads/airex (unstable surface), specific stretches, core exercises, kinetic control exercises.
