Therapeutic Climbing Shows Mood and Focus Benefits.

For psychiatric patients under treatment for depression, anxiety disorders, and obsessive-compulsive disorder, a recent study found that structured therapeutic climbing sessions provided benefits with respect to mood, mental focus, social connection, and physical confidence. Participants found the intervention enjoyable and were likely to continue climbing after the study.

Sacroiliac Joint Injury.

Dysfunction of the sacroiliac joint (SIJ), which connects the sacrum to the pelvis, can refer pain to adjacent areas of the body, including the lower back. Because symptoms of SIJ dysfunction overlap with those of other lumbar conditions, it is often overlooked as a cause of low back pain and disability. It is estimated that SIJ dysfunction contributes to 15–30% of low back pain cases. Through targeted mobilization, manipulation, and corrective exercises, chiropractic care may serve as an effective treatment option for SIJ dysfunction.

Factors Linked to Central Sensitization.

Central sensitization is a state in which the nervous system becomes overly reactive, amplifying pain signals and lowering the threshold at which pain is perceived—an effect that can hinder recovery from chronic low back pain and other musculoskeletal disorders. A recent study found that central sensitization was not directly associated with psychological distress or pain intensity, but it showed mild associations with higher body mass index and low vitamin D status. These findings suggest that poor metabolic health may contribute to central sensitization and should be considered when patients fail to respond to conservative treatment approaches, such as chiropractic care.
