Elgin Migraine Sufferers Know
A recent study of women with episodic migraine treated with comprehensive chiropractic care highlights the benefits of the chiropractor-patient relationship for maximal clinical outcomes. The women (a) reported that they were more knowledgeable of how musculoskeletal pain, tension and posture prompted migraine, (b) altered their view of chiropractic as just spinal manipulation, and (c) found the chiropractor/patient relationship to be essential and appreciated in managing their migraines effectively. (1) That’s chiropractic’s forte! Chiropractors like yours at Connected Chiropractic take the time to clearly describe the painful condition to our patients. We want to be sure our Elgin chiropractic patients understand what is going on to boost their participation in its alleviating care. The best clinical outcomes result from an open partnership of in-office care and at-home care, of chiropractor treatment and communication skill and patient participation and teamwork. Whether migraines are your issue or back pain or neck pain or arm pain or sciatic leg pain is, we at Connected Chiropractic are your healthcare partner to manage the pain.
Listen to this PODCAST with Dr. Jeremy Heidt on The Back Doctors Podcast with Dr. Michael Johnson as he describes his use of the Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain Management to guide a neck pain and migraine sufferer to pain relief.
Elgin CHIROPRACTIC TIP OF THE MONTH:
Take a Multivitamin to Decrease Fragility Hip Fracture
Hip fractures are a serious condition for healthcare systems and their patients globally. A meta-analysis of over 80,000 subjects – 21% male, average age 69 years of age – reported that multivitamin use was significantly associated with a decreased risk of suffering a fragility hip fracture. Multivitamin use was significantly protective against osteoporotic hip fracture. (2) This is positive news for Elgin chiropractic patients worried about hip fracture as they are likely already taking a simple multivitamin instead of taking a lot of single ones. Decreasing Elgin hip fracture risk may come from taking a multivitamin supplement daily!
