The GLOBAL Role of Chiropractic for Back
Pain
It’s the time for chiropractic!
Gormish Chiropractic & Rehabilitation is excited to offer chiropractic services in
Carrolltown and be a part of this time in healthcare. Lancet, one of the leading
medical journals, published a number of articles
on the disappointing way8 healthcare
systems around the globe are managing low back pain. Back pain is an
enormous issue the world over and
growing worse. And chiropractic is “perfectly placed to be a
major player in providing a part of the solution to the global challenge of low
back” if its providers adhere guidelines (like your chiropractor strives to do!) to
not order too many x-rays, follow evidence-based
care clinical practice guidelines, and keep up-to-date
of the most recent research (and even taking part
in research when able!). Chiropractic is known
for its reputation in treating back pain. It needs to find its way into mainstream
healthcare to help more back pain and neck pain
sufferers non-pharmacologically and non-surgically. (1) The World Federation of
Chiropractic is developing toolkits for chiropractors to participate more with public health communities and be of greater
service to patients and communities within
the health system as esteemed partners for their health
and well-being. (2) Your Carrolltown chiropractor at Gormish Chiropractic & Rehabilitation is
grateful for this sponsorship and vision
from a world chiropractic organization as that is just what this Carrolltown
chiropractic practice of Gormish Chiropractic & Rehabilitation strives to do here in
Carrolltown.

with Dr. Christophe Dean on The
Back Doctors Podcast with Dr. Michael Johnson about how he incorporates
Cox® Technic into his Carrolltown patient care to help ease
back pain.
TIP OF THE MONTH: Wear a Back Support
Low back pain patients at Gormish Chiropractic & Rehabilitation may find value in wearing a lumbar back belt. New research reveals
that a lumbar support belt does not necessarily
result in muscle weakness but rather increases
walking distance ability for spinal stenosis patients with
intermittent claudication, reduces pain and fear of pain,
lessens use of pain medications, and strengthens
muscle strength, flexibility, and activities of daily living. (3-10) All
good! Your chiropractor cautiously considers
when and if to use of back braces for each individual Carrolltown
back pain patient as he or she gets better with Carrolltown
chiropractic care, knowing the advantages
back braces may provide along the way.
