Beneficial Richmond Chiropractic Care for Relief of Pain
How many healthcare practitioners have you visited for your current pain condition whether it is back pain or neck pain or leg pain or arm pain? Many Richmond chiropractic patients who visit Johnson Chiropractic for the first time will report that they have consulted with many other healthcare practitioners with some relief or no relief. Johnson Chiropractic talks with many frustrated, in-pain people…and helps many of them, too.
INTEGRATING CHIROPRACTIC INTO HEALTHCARE APPOINTMENTS
Patients with chronic pain get help from shared medical consultations centered on a multidisciplinary, nonpharmacological treatment approach. The contributing integrative and lifestyle medical professionals shared education about non-pharmacological approaches, the causes of pain, and how pain influences lifestyle choices. Suggested care methods incorporated chiropractic, yoga, medication, breathing, hypnotherapy, acupuncture, massage, and cognitive behavioral therapy. Patients had less pain and better rates of physical, mental, and social health without more use of opioids. (1) These kinds of outcomes make such integration of care options in Richmond healthcare quite attractive! Johnson Chiropractic is ready!
INTEGRATING CHIROPRACTIC INTO HEALTHCARE SYSTEMS
Many healthcare systems today now support patients’ wanting to use complementary and integrative health methods – self-care - for pain management as well as their recommendations – practitioner-delivered care. (2) Specifically, Centers for Complementary Medicine (CCM) are integrated healthcare delivery systems. More than a third of patients referred themselves for care at CCMs. The top condition that CCM patients reported was spine and truncal pain (70.5%). Chiropractic was the most common type of care. (3) Johnson Chiropractic welcomes patients who want care they know will help. Johnson Chiropractic recognizes the value of integrating tools into the daily schedules of Richmond back pain patients that will help them control the pain instead of letting the pain control them and their lives.
INTEGRATING CHIROPRACTIC INTO THE OVERALL TREATMENT PLAN
To most effectively help patients wanting relief of their back pain, integrated healthcare delivery systems continue to include chiropractic care for the benefit of and to meet the demand for such care by their back and neck pain patients. Why? Back and neck pain top the list of reasons for disability globally. Chiropractors are trained and deliver non-drug treatment that meets published clinical guidelines of care. Researchers write that improving collaboration between medical and chiropractic physicians or integrating chiropractors into medical settings like hospitals or community health centers will improve access to evidence-based care for musculoskeletal pain conditions. (4) Evidence-based care utilizes the best evidence from research to form clinical treatment decisions that end in patient satisfaction. That’s what Johnson Chiropractic and its use of the chiropractic treatment system, the Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain Management, provides: evidence-based care.
