CHRONIC BACK PAIN RELIEF WITH CHIROPRACTIC
Chronic back pain sends many sufferers to doctors’
offices for help. Chronic back pain’s impact
on the sufferer and his/her “default mode network” of living reflects the years lived with pain: the longer the pain period,
the more impact the pain has on the patient and his/her
cognitive pain coping attitude. (1) Not surprising, but it’s
now described in the medical literature and will likely
be analyzed more. It’s also understood that lumbar
spinal stenosis patients differ in their symptom severity and improvement
track from “improving” to “fluctuating/improving” to “persistent.” (2)
Back pain is really a unique journey, one your
chiropractor goes on with you as chiropractic care’s
spinal manipulation is high on clinical practice guidelines’ lists
of noninvasive, non-drug pain therapies. (3) In point of
published fact, non-surgical, conservative care options lead
treatment recommendations lists. Spinal manipulation, chiropractic’s forte, is
a top recommendation in many treatment recommendation records
by groups like the American College of Physicians and the American Pain
Society. (4) Using chiropractic care and such approaches as mindfulness
- which has been shown to improve pain-related functions - may be quite
beneficial for you. (5)
Listen to this PODCAST
with Dr. Joseph Beissel and his chronic back pain patient on The Back Doctors Podcast with
Dr. Michael Johnson about the use
of The
Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain Management treatment protocols to manage
chronic back pain and return some joy
to life.
Manahawkin CHIROPRACTIC TIP OF THE MONTH: Consider Peppermint
Oil: A Relaxing Boost!
We all need a boost occasionally. The past few stressful years
are catching up with us. Whether you’re tired or healing,
peppermint may add some energy into your system. A recent
study described how inhalation of peppermint post-back-surgery
reduced patients’ anxiety and pain levels. (6) Another
study detailed how peppermint oil inhalation reduced
cardiac surgery patients’ post-op nausea. (7) Adding peppermint oil to a
footbath for adolescents with primary headache disorder showed that
both the control and participant groups had a significant reduction
in headache pain and decrease in anxiety over time with no adverse events.
95.6% of the participants favored and recommended this! (8) Time
for some relaxation? Peppermint oil may be a
helper!
