This week we have been discussing the therapy ball as an exercise tool for people who have low back pain. I just wanted to review a few important points we went over this week.
The therapy ball is a great way to begin exercising after you have had a back injury. However, you should not use the ball right after your injury, or if the ball causes your pain to become worse.
It takes a little time to adjust to the therapy ball. Your body has to learn to balance. It will require the use of muscles that you may not have used much before. The therapy ball will strengthen the core muscles of the abdomen and back. These muscles help to support the spine.
Always consult your trainer or chiropractor on which exercises you should be doing. They will know which exercises will help to strengthen your muscles and help you to overcome your back pain.
After using the therapy ball for awhile you will find you have increased flexibility, stronger muscles, and better balance and coordination.
