Pain Threshold and Sensitivity Improved with Exercise

At Omaha Physical Therapy Institute, our physical therapists apply exercise and pain neuroscience education in an attempt to empower YOU, the patient, to eventually take control over your symptoms and return to the activities you love most.  The beauty of exercise as a pain management tool is that once you understand what works, you can apply it yourself, and eventually gain independence in managing your symptoms.

This abstract (below) of the meta-analysis conducted by Daniel L. Belavy, et al, titled, “Pain sensitivity is reduced by exercise training: Evidence from a systematic review and meta-analysis”, provides quality evidence and confirms that exercise is an effective strategy for managing pain, even better than other interventions that have been traditionally used for years!  Check out the abstract in the link below.
