Can Cycling Relieve Back Pain?

Cycling, a key cardiovascular and strengthening exercise, combined with chiropractic care can play an important role in the management of lower back pain.

When combined with chiropractic care, cycling exercise helps promote proper digestion, keeps the muscles in proper tone and promotes better circulation. The value of such an exercise prescription cannot be ignored; in fact these same principles of cardiovascular training and strengthening apply to patients with chronic problems such as degenerative joint disease or myofascial pain syndromes.

Maintaining spinal alignment and restoring strength, endurance and bulk to detrained muscle groups is fundamental to returning a patient back to ultimate functional capacity. At Landin Chiropractic Care we value regular exercise and proper diet along with maintaining proper spinal alignment.
