BACK PAIN RELIEF RECOMMENDATIONS
Suggestions and recommendations run the gamut. Gormish Chiropractic & Rehabilitation knows. Everyone from friends, family members, researchers, doctors, etc., have opinions and stories. In light of the variability of back pain care recommendations, researchers suggest that the standardization of back pain care - exercise, spinal manipulation and opioid prescriptions – that may benefit back pain sufferers optimally. (1) We concur. We review the research and mingle it with our experience when developing a personalized treatment plan for our back pain patients. With the expected growth of low back pain through 2050 – from 619 million people globally to more than 800 million (2) – effective, research-documented, non-drug, non-surgical options for back pain are welcome, especially ones that are tried and documented to be beneficial. A new paper was just published regarding the care for one type of back pain - continued back pain after back surgery also called failed back surgery syndrome (FBSS) - that often results in continued or increased opioid pain medication use. The study stated that FBSS patients treated with Cox® Flexion Distraction Decompression Manipulation experienced reduction or discontinuation of opioid use during an initial 3-month course of treatment. (3) That’s a positive outcome of a treatment approach to incorporate into the standardized back pain treatment recommendations!
SPECIFIC RECOMMENDATIONS
So what can our Carrolltown chiropractic patients do to control their back pain and its impact on their lives? Sleep. Be active. Undergo spinal manipulation. Feedback from 2333 back pain sufferers listed that additional sleep, less sedentariness, and increased moderate to vigorous intensity physical activity was beneficial. The authors shared an example of how swapping 30 minutes of sedentary behavior for 30 minutes of sleep reduced low back pain frequency odds by 5% and pain intensity by 2%. Sleep is vital! (4) So too is a visit to the Carrolltown chiropractor for spinal manipulation as recommended in the guidelines published by the American College of Physicians and The American Pain Society as having good evidence of effectiveness for low back pain together with exercise, CBT, and rehabilitation. (5) Gormish Chiropractic & Rehabilitation is experienced in providing gentle, safe spinal manipulation via Cox® Technic protocols, designing an easy exercise plan, and recommending therapy and/or more advance rehab as necessary or wanted. Trust us to help! Our Carrolltown back pain patients are in good hands.
