Carrolltown chiropractic patients can believe their Carrolltown chiropractor to be an escort to the healthy lifestyle behaviors that can not only assist them deal with current spine pain issues but also ward off future bouts of spine pain, neck pain, and back pain, and other health issues that are best avoided.
HEALTHY BEHAVIORS
What are some healthy behaviors? A good diet. Exercise. Not smoking. Low/No alcohol intake. Those sound about right, do they not? A recent study described that men who abided by more of these healthy choices had decreased risk of long duration low back pain and women for neck pain. (1) Eating fruit and vegetables is another advantageous healthy behavior. This in addition to the other behaviors are shown to lessen the chance of having long term upsetting low back pain in women and even potentially improve the prognosis of low back pain relief. (2) Taking part in a community based musculoskeletal physiotherapy program enhances the health-related quality of life for patients. (3) Wearing a lumbar support belt increases postural control when standing on unstable ground. This may be especially helpful for patients with non-specific low back pain as they are prone to be more unstable. (4) Gormish Chiropractic & Rehabilitation works with our Carrolltown back pain patients on their balance and proprioception to help improve their steadiness.
CARE CHOICE
Choice of care for health care issues leads to more healthy behaviors. When patients are able to choose their provider for back pain or neck pain relief (in one study: physical therapy care), costs were lower than if they went to their medical doctor first and were referred. Direct access results in a difference in costs and outcomes. (5) A study of women and their choices of providers for back pain relief found that their knowledge of the doctor’s treatment, social network endorsements, geographical proximity, and credentials of the doctor influenced their choice.
