Groton CHIROPRACTIC TIP OF THE MONTH: Strengthen the Hip Abductors

We all can gain from stronger hip abductors, and Groton elder folks gain even more. A recent article reports that people with chronic low back pain usually have hip abductor weakness, too. (Shoreline Medical Services/ Hutter Chiropractic Office agrees as these two are seen frequently in this Groton chiropractic practice.) A simple series of hip abductor exercises helped reduce pain and improve function in a set of older chronic low back pain sufferers. (2) Easy! Shoreline Medical Services/ Hutter Chiropractic Office will share some hip strengthening exercises you can do in the convenience of your own home alongside the Groton chiropractic spinal manipulation with Cox Technic in office to get such relief yourself.
