Back Pain Exercises - When to Exercise when in Pain

WHEN IS IT A GOOD IDEA TO EXERCISE WHEN YOU HAVE PAIN?

 

Bed rest has been well documented to have a negative impact on the recovery from back injury and indeed the research demonstrates that this approach can worsen the underlying issue. But should we be resting as part of our recovery? Is exercise always beneficial, and should we be doing exercise at all? What is the difference between doing exercise and taking an active approach to managing back pain? 

 

In this episode we discuss what is meant by an active approach to recovery versus exercise. We identify the best approach to active recovery including rest; hydration; nutrition and healthy movement. We discuss when rest may be important but understanding what considerations need to be made when resting as part of your recovery. Not only that but we discuss why its important not to rush into exercise after injury and how this can lead to neurological changes which can lead to chronic pain. Finally, we make considerations for hydration, as well as nutrition, and how they play a key role in tissue repair.
