...or not! Strengthen What You Have!!!
Many of us likely admire those who have "6 pack abs" or toned-up mid-sections, but most of us do not really want or need them.
However, if you have back pain, you may want to try for them. Sensibly, most of us in Chicago need only tone up what there is of us with the "6 pack" image in mind. Such toning and imagery may well help pain relief and prevention of future back pain.
That's where abdominal and core exercises come into play, and Chiropractic Care stands ready to be your partner. Strengthening and toning your core -- the muscles surrounding your mid-section -- helps support your spine thus helping to prevent re-injury. Keeping the spine stable with conditioned, strong abdominal muscles is an important part of upholding good posture and avoiding back injuries.
The bones of the spine make up the support frame of the back. Attached to this framework is a well-developed system of muscles and ligaments that, when strong, offer the strength and stability of the spine, arms, and legs. If the muscles and ligaments are weak, additional stress is placed on the spine increasing the likelihood of back injury.
At Chiropractic Care, we want you to be actively engaged in your spinal care treatment plan. Together, we can quicken your recovery and control spinal pain's influence on your lifestyle. We do not recommend the classic gym class sit-ups but rather a specific and controlled set of abdominal and core exercises to prevent back pain. Please only perform the exercises as instructed to do so. Our doctors and staff can demonstrate the proper exercises and you can also then see them on our website.
Chiropractic Care is in no doubt of your ability to strengthen your core once you set your mind to it!

Thank you for sharing. I found this post extremely interesting and informative. I have to disagree while that gentleman has nice abs they are too nice. I would not want to date a man with a perfect 6-pack. My question to you is at what age would you suggest a “healthy” person see a chiropractor? I think its time I regain my health with a chiropractor in Beverly MA.
