Poway Chiropractor Dr. Kip Rode of Rode Chiropractic

A lot of people tell me about their pains and describe them as muscle pain and feel that massage or stretching can just solve the problem. Yet when they do this this problem keeps coming back. I want to shed some light on what is going on. If you haven’t been to the gym in a long time and exercise a lot you are going to have sore muscles the next couple days and then it should go away. I you have sore or tight and achy muscles that don’t seem the get better than some else is probably going on. People commonly associate nerve involvement with sharp shooting pains or numbness and tingling. Nerve involvement can also manifest as muscle aches and tightness that just doesn’t get better. But since people feel it in their muscles they naturally conclude it is a muscle problem. When a nerve is pinched or there is pressure on it can cause many symptoms. Naturally is you have any sort of problem of this nature and want to get something done about it I would invite you to come in for an evaluation you can find out more information at www.poway-chiropractic.com or www.rodechiropractic.com

Dr. Kip Rode offers insight on how to reduce and prevent back pain during pregnancy with chiropractic care. Women do not have to suffer through uncomfortable back pain if preventative measures are taken.

Poway, July 20, 2007 — Pregnancy greatly increases a woman’s vulnerability to back problems during and after birth. Did you know that at least half of pregnant women experience back pain during pregnancy? Some studies suggest that these numbers are even higher.

Many women simply accept back pain as an unavoidable trade off in the creation of new life. However, Dr. Kip Rode, D.C., of Rode Chiropractic says that pregnant women do not have to take back pain “lying down.” Dr. Rode is an experienced chiropractor in Poway, CA who aims at increasing women’s awareness of the relationship between back pain and pregnancy. He said, “Women who are more educated are more likely to seek care and reduce back pain.”

Studies have proven that chiropractic care greatly reduces the amount of pain and discomfort throughout pregnancy, childbirth, and postpartum. A study in the Journal of Manipulative and Physiological Therapeutics in 1991 revealed that 84% of patients who received spinal manipulative therapy (chiropractic care) reported a decrease in back pain while pregnant. Another study reported in the book “Chiropractic Pediatrician” showed that regular chiropractic adjustments reduced average labor times by an average of 33%.

Dr. Rode said, “Women who have regular chiropractic treatment and are properly instructed about ways to reduce pain have a much easier, smoother child bearing experience. Also, women who have significant back pain during pregnancy are more likely to experience a longer period of pain in subsequent pregnancies. That’s why I really stress a preemptive approach, meaning get educated before your body begins to make its maternal changes.”

Dr. Rode strongly suggests contact with a local chiropractor who can give valuable guidance and care. Some other things that can be done to reduce strain on the back are sleeping on your side, maintaining good posture, eating and exercising properly, using a pregnancy pillow or support belt, and many more.

To learn more about this topic schedule a consultation with your local chiropractor. Dr. Kip Rode offers a discounted consultation for pregnant women or women who may become pregnant. Rode Chiropractic is located at 13248 Poway Road Suite B, Poway, CA. Also, visit Dr. Rode’s website at www.rodechiropractic.com for more information.

Don’t Do This Do This Instead

One of the most common ways my patients have hurt their back is by picking up something heavy and then as the lift they twist at the same time. For instance you are moving a heavy item from the ground to the top of a table and it is just easier to twist and put it on the table than to properly position yourself. This is a really excellent way of damaging the disks in your spine. You see the lower back is really not designed to twist or rotate much. It is really designed to go up and down. So what you want to do when you lift up a large heavy item is lift it straight up and then move your body by moving your feet rather than twisting. So Don’t lift and twist Do lift and shuffle or move your feet to properly position your body.  I am located on 13248 Poway Road Ste B 858 391-1372.  For more information go to Rode Chiropractic or Poway Chiropractic or Press Release
