Results. Pain Relief. That’s what our Manchester
back pain and neck pain patients want from our
Manchester chiropractic care. Manchester Chiropractic & Sports Injuries gets
this and provides this with reasonable expectations in concert
with our spine pain patients desire. Relief
is feasible. We will talk about how, how
much, and when.
PATIENT INPUT REGARDING WHAT RELIEF MEANS
Manchester Chiropractic & Sports Injuries keeps our back pain and
neck pain patients at the core of care. We listen
to what our Manchester chiropractic patients want to do that they cannot
do now. It is sensible to place such
a goal/goals at the center of care! A review of 12 studies regarding
the non-surgical care of chronic low back pain reports
that patient-led goal setting is important in and of
itself as part of the treatment plan in attaining
desired back pain relief. (1) This is longed-for news to the
millions of annual chronic low back pain sufferers. They can contribute
to their own relief! That’s why we question
our Manchester back pain and neck pain sufferers what they want to do
that they can’t do now. The one thing - or several
things – our patients want to do motivate all of us1!
SURGICAL OR NON-SURGICAL
Manchester Chiropractic & Sports Injuries purposely wants to establish
realistic expectations that motivate us all. Many Manchester
back pain sufferers wonder if surgery is
better/quicker than non-surgical, chiropractic spinal manipulative care. A recent article proposes a few ideas
on surgery for lumbar disc herniation due to pre- and post-surgery possibilities:
(A) evidence that immune/auto-immunity may play a role in
spontaneous resolution of a lumbar disc herniation, (B) documented
long-term complications of lumbar spine fusion (adjacent segment disease, implant
failure, etc.), (C) systemic and local reactions to metal instrumentation, (D) unclear
parameters as to when and for what conditions spinal implant
removal may be warranted, and (E) postoperative lumbar spinal
stiffness. (2) With these ideas in mind, let’s consider another report that focuses on the immediate beneficial
effects of spinal mobilization for low back pain sufferers: decreased
muscle stiffness, elasticity, and tone. Admittedly,
baseline stiffness, BMI, waist circumference and sex may influence the outcomes. (3) At Manchester Chiropractic & Sports Injuries, our Cox® Technic
System of Spinal Pain Management is documented to be beneficial for
a range of patient conditions.
HOW CHIROPRACTIC CAN HELP WITH RELIEF…AND IN WHAT TIMEFRAME
Manchester chiropractic care of back and neck pain cares
for a variety of spinal conditions in patients
of all sizes and shapes. Published studies about Cox® Technic measured
how spinal stiffness may impact positive outcomes. Spinal
manipulation via Cox® Technic may be delivered in the gentlest manner
in several doctor-controlled situations that are comfortable
for the patient. Exercise and nutrition complement the
treatment plan. (For wine lovers, new nutritional research reported on
the benefits of reservatrol and its anti-oxidant effects in slowing
the progression of intervertebral disc degeneration at the mitochondrial cell
level by eliminating reactive oxygen species! (4)) Manchester Chiropractic & Sports Injuries
has a way to deliver what our patients want:
results.
