Manchester Depression due to Back Pain Helped with Cox® Technic

The mind-body connection. It’s real. And in few other conditions is it more real than in spine-related pain conditions. The spine is the support for the body. When it hurts, the body knows it. Manchester Chiropractic & Sports Injuries knows it, also. Manchester back pain and neck pain and spine-related pain patients know it, too. Our chiropractic treatment plan for spine-related pain effectively soothes both body and mind pain to allow our patients to find an agreeable quality of life. Back pain’s depression often is relieved with our Cox® Technic System of decompression.

MIND AND BODY: DEPRESSION IN BACK PAIN PATIENTS

Leading causes of disability globally incorporate musculoskeletal diseases and mental disorders like anxiety and depression. A report of a specific set of patients, those with lumbar spondylolisthesis, demonstrated how anxiety and depression affect a person’s well-being. Emotional distress and disability that patients experience negatively impacts their overall well-being. (1) A recent review of medical studies connects these two issues, too. Anxiety and cervical/lumbar disc herniation, mood/anxiety and lower bone mineral density in men, chronic low back pain and depression, life satisfaction improvement and bone loss prevention in postmenopausal women, quality of life deterioration and increased osteoporotic fractures. Adults over 45 years of age with musculoskeletal diseases mentally struggle with the impact these matters have on their lifestyle. (2) That is where chiropractic care comes into play. Manchester Chiropractic & Sports Injuries offers evidence-based chiropractic care with the Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain Management to ease pain and give control of it in the hands of our Manchester patients. There is hope. There is life during and after treatment. Manchester Chiropractic & Sports Injuries is here for our Manchester back pain patients every step of the way. Using anti-depressants – anti-cholinergic drugs - may not be the answer for depressed patients. They are shown to increase the risk of dementia with long-term use. These drugs stop the neurotransmitter acetylcholine in the central and peripheral nervous system. (3) We all need clear minds to deal with life with and without back pain.

THE DEPRESSION AND ANXIETY OF BACK PAIN

Depression and anxiety are states of mind most of us contend with at some point in life. For chronic low back pain patients, depression and anxiety frequently go together with their pain experience. Logically, higher levels of depression often result from more pain and a lower sense of personal control of pain and overall health. More anxiety often extends from stronger beliefs about negative consequences of illness, negative emotional views of the illness, and depression. These conclusions support the need for more honest advising of chronic back pain patients. (4) You can trust Manchester Chiropractic & Sports Injuries to be honest!

HELP FOR DEPRESSION: Manchester CHIROPRACTIC CARE

Help for back pain depression is built into the chiropractic treatment plan, especially exercise. Exercise is beneficial for the body. That’s a known fact. Is exercise good for the mind? For those of us dealing with chronic low back pain – Manchester chiropractic patients and your Manchester chiropractor – the more specific wonder is whether exercise is good for chronic low back pain patients’ minds. A recent study states that symptoms of depression were reduced in such adults who used exercise (low dose) and manual therapy and/or general strengthening and moderate exercise. (5) Neither came out superior. Both indicated promise in reducing depression. That’s good news. Manchester Chiropractic & Sports Injuries ensures that Manchester chiropractic patients know this and delivers safe, gentle, effective, pain-relieving treatment.
