It can be as part of a well rounded and individualized plan for your care .
Regarding. your question without being evaluated to see the issue you are experiencing, it is difficult to give you a an honest answer. Exercise is good and helps strengthen the back . But can not make any comments about the pain.
First of all I want to wish you a happy new year. I hope that you and your loved ones have a joyful prosperous year in 2024. Thank you for your question.
Now when you tell me that you have “spine pain”, and can it be corrected with exercises. This to me, is a very general question. To answer your question in more comprehensive fashion, I would certainly need more information regarding your back pain.
Where is the location of the pain? Is it up in your neck and upper back region, mid back or is it in the lower back region or is it a combination of any of these three. What is the frequency of the pain? Is it occasional, intermittent, frequent or is it more of a constant type of pain.
What is the quality of the pain? How would you describe in your own words . Is it a dull achy type of pain or is it sharp and stabbing. There are so many ways to characterize the quality of the pain, and that is very important when determining the root cause, and more importantly, how to properly treat your back pain and ultimately properly manage it long-term.
Is the pain localized to one area of the back or does it radiate to any other part of your body. Are there any associated symptoms along with your back pain? What are the aggravating factors, and what brings you relief of your back pain?
Do you have any associated medical conditions that I should be aware of?
All these questions need to be entertained in order to properly answer your question. But generally when people come to me with general back pain, and depending on root cause of the back pain, I would generally put these patients on a multidimensional treatment approach. That means co-treating with many various types of musculoskeletal specialties or disciplines.. from my previous experiences. This is the most effective way to achieve your health goals, both short, and long term.
The goal here is to keep them off pain medication‘s, and preventing surgery at any cost. All the other non-invasive options must be entertained in order to create the most comprehensive, cost-effective, efficient treatment plan.
What do I mean by that? Well, I mean specifically placing this patient on a chiropractic corrective care plan with a specific date that they would be able to resume their daily lifestyle without any restrictions.
Co-treat with doctors of Osteopathy, Orthopedic specialists, Acupuncturist, Massage Therapist, Physical Therapist and also work closely with a person trainer.
In doing so, within the corrective care plan, depending on the area that is affected, I have detailed exercises for each region of the spine in order to maximize the efficiency of the treatment plan and return the patient back to normal status as quick as possible.
The provider can do as much as he or she possibly can but it is also up to the patient to be very proactive in there rehabilitative care plan. That means being very strict with daily stretches and exercises and being very attentive to the way your body is responding.
So to answer your question yes exercises can definitely help you with your back pain but it is also important to know that the type of exercises being prescribe is very crucial to your recovery.
I hope this answers your question and gives you some type of peace of mind regarding your journey in finding relief of your back pain.
Again, I want to thank you for your question, please take great care of your body as it is a “temple” should be treated as such. Pay close attention to your body, and be very attentive to what it is telling you, as it will never lie to you, and will lead you astray. Treat it as such and you’ll be rewarded with a fulfilling lifestyle.

It depends on the cause of the pain but exercise is always a good thing and specific exercises can help in the healing process along with Chiropractic adjustments.
Sometimes. Depends on what the problem is.
