Gormish Chiropractic & Rehabilitation Encourages Adding Mindfulness to Chiropractic Back Pain Care
Mind-body-SPINE connection. The mind-body connection is in the health news a lot. Since we are a member of the chiropractic profession, Gormish Chiropractic & Rehabilitation inserts “spine” to this connection, rendering it much more specific to what we observe in our Carrolltown back pain and neck pain patients. When the spine hurts, the mind and body cannot help but hurt, too. Gormish Chiropractic & Rehabilitation creates individualized Carrolltown chiropractic treatment plans for spine pain, back pain, neck pain and related arm and leg pain sufferers that incorporate chiropractic treatment, home exercise, and nutrition. Adding mindfulness practices to these spine care practices is many times helpful and encouraged.
MIND-BODY-SPINE PAIN
Spine pain, back pain, neck pain tires a person. Pain often holds a sufferer back from doing what he or she wants/needs to do and from enjoying life. When working with your Carrolltown chiropractor at Gormish Chiropractic & Rehabilitation on the physical pain relief, a back pain patient can take a mindful approach to dealing with the mind’s struggle with the pain and associated depression and/or fluctuating levels of sadness is found to be helpful. In a study of mindfulness-based therapy specifically for sufferers with lumbar disc herniation related back pain, researchers found that mindfulness-based treatment had a positive effect on pain beliefs and psychological well-being. (1) Additionally, researchers found that even in countries with well-developed and accessible mental health services, those services are not well-utilized. It’s better than it used to be with all the notice mental health has seen of late. Many don’t seek it out as they may. One curious note about those who do seek help resulted from their knowing someone with a mental health issue which positively influenced them to seek help for their own issue. (2) Whether you know someone who suffers with a mental health issue or not, don’t avoid pursuing assistance with depression related to Carrolltown back pain. Today, there are many options to get help for pain-related depression.
