Filter by:In Canada, almost 19% of chiropractic patients are aged over 65 years. Although most of patients ≥65 years seek care for musculoskeletal conditions (such as back, neck and lower limb pain), there is inadequate prospective data on the safety of chiropractic care for these patients and the frequency of potential associated adverse events remains unknown. Our study will investigate changes in symptoms reported by older adults receiving chiropractic care, with a focus on safety.
This is a randomized, phase III trial of a 12 week exercise program, followed by a 36 week voluntary, self-directed exercise program (total 48 weeks) compared to standard supportive care. The purpose of the trial is to determine whether the exercise program is better than standard supportive care to decrease the muscle and joint aches (musculoskeletal symptoms) that result from aromatase inhibitors. Hypothesis An exercise program that includes stretching, strengthening and aerobic components may improve physical quality of life among women with musculoskeletal symptoms who are taking aromatase inhibitors.
