Research has shown that people who are physically fit are less likely to have back pain, injuries, and will also recover much faster from injuries than those who are less physically fit.
The abdominal and back muscles help to stabilize the spine allowing proper spinal movement and correct posture. Also, having strong leg and hip muscles allow for proper lifting techniques and body mechanics.
Strengthening back and abdominal muscles can help to relieve back pain, provide energy and give a feeling of wellness making daily routine activities much easier.
As always if you are experiencing back pain be sure to check with your chiropractor before starting an exercise routine.

Prior to seeing Dr. Shea I was experiencing neck and shoulder pain, lower back pain, hip pain and foot/leg cramping. My neck pain is all but gone. My shoulder pain and low back pain are improving. The cramps have lessened and I expect more improvement with future care. The biggest difference for me was the ability to sleep much better than before which affects all aspects of my life. An unexpected benefit of being of my chiropractic care was the return of my singing voice which is important to me as I have done commercial voice overs for local San Diego companies such as McDonalds, The Vein and Liposuction Center and many more. I would recommend Dr. Shea to anyone dealing with chronic pain and in fact, referred a friend to him from my work.
