Connected Chiropractic Works to Deliver Back Pain Relief Goals You Want
Results. Pain Relief. That’s what our Elgin back pain and neck pain patients want from our Elgin chiropractic care. Connected Chiropractic realizes this and delivers this with reasonable expectations lining up with what our spine pain patients desire. Relief is feasible. We will talk about how, how much, and when.
PATIENT INPUT REGARDING WHAT RELIEF MEANS
Connected Chiropractic keeps our back pain and neck pain patients at the core of care. We listen to what our Elgin chiropractic patients want to do that they cannot do now. It makes sense to put such a goal/goals at the center of care! A review of 12 studies about the non-surgical care of chronic low back pain explains that patient-led goal setting is important alone as part of the treatment plan in getting desired back pain relief. (1) This is longed-for news to the millions of annual chronic low back pain sufferers. They can contribute to their own relief! That’s why we question our Elgin back pain and neck pain sufferers what they want to do that they miss doing now. The one thing - or several things – our patients want to do are motivating for us both1!
SURGICAL OR NON-SURGICAL
Connected Chiropractic intentionally wants to set realistic expectations that motivate us all. Many Elgin back pain sufferers wonder if surgery is better/quicker than non-surgical, chiropractic spinal manipulative care. A recent article proposes a few ideas on surgery for lumbar disc herniation due to pre- and post-surgery considerations: (A) evidence that immune/auto-immunity may be a factor in spontaneous resolution of a lumbar disc herniation, (B) documented long-term complications of lumbar spine fusion (adjacent segment disease, implant failure, etc.), (C) systemic and local reactions to metal instrumentation, (D) unclear parameters as to when and for what issues spinal implant removal may be warranted, and (E) postoperative lumbar spinal stiffness. (2) With these ideas in mind, let’s consider another report that focuses on the immediate beneficial effects of spinal mobilization for low back pain sufferers: reduced muscle stiffness, elasticity, and tone. The researchers acknowled that baseline stiffness, BMI, waist circumference and sex may influence the outcomes. (3) At Connected Chiropractic, our Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain Management is documented to be beneficial for a range of patient conditions.
HOW CHIROPRACTIC CAN HELP WITH RELIEF…AND IN WHAT TIMEFRAME
Elgin chiropractic care of back and neck pain cares for a variety of spinal conditions in patients of all sizes and shapes. Published studies about Cox® Technic have shown how spinal stiffness may play a role in positive outcomes. Spinal manipulation via Cox® Technic may be applied in the gentlest manner in several doctor-controlled situations that are comfortable for the patient. Exercise and nutrition round out the treatment plan. (For wine lovers, new nutritional research reported on the benefits of reservatrol and its anti-oxidant effects in slowing the progression of intervertebral disc degeneration at the mitochondrial cell level by getting rid of reactive oxygen species! (4)) Connected Chiropractic has a way to deliver what our patients want: results.
