Johnson Chiropractic Works to Deliver Back Pain Relief Goals You Want
Results. Pain Relief. That is what our Richmond back pain and neck pain patients desire from our Richmond chiropractic care. Johnson Chiropractic gets this and delivers this with reasonable expectations in concert with our spine pain patients desire. Relief is feasible. We’ll discuss how, how much, and when.
PATIENT INPUT REGARDING WHAT RELIEF MEANS
Johnson Chiropractic keeps our back pain and neck pain patients at the center of care. We pay attention to what our Richmond chiropractic patients want to do that they cannot do now. It is sensible to place such a goal/goals at the center of care! A review of 12 studies regarding the non-surgical care of chronic low back pain indicates 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 help in their own relief! That’s why we question our Richmond back pain and neck pain sufferers what they want to do that they miss doing now. The one thing - or many things – our patients want to do are motivating for us both1!
SURGICAL OR NON-SURGICAL
Johnson Chiropractic purposely wants to set realistic expectations that motivate us all. Many Richmond back pain sufferers deliberate if surgery is better/quicker than non-surgical, chiropractic spinal manipulative care. A recent article offers a few ideas on surgery for lumbar disc herniation due to pre- and post-surgery issues: (A) evidence that immune/auto-immunity may play a role in spontaneous resolution of a lumbar disc herniation, (B) recorded 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: decreased muscle stiffness, elasticity, and tone. Admittedly, baseline stiffness, BMI, waist circumference and sex may influence the outcomes. (3) At Johnson Chiropractic, our Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain Management is shown beneficial for a range of patient conditions.
HOW CHIROPRACTIC CAN HELP WITH RELIEF…AND IN WHAT TIMEFRAME
Richmond 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 measured how spinal stiffness may impact positive outcomes. Spinal manipulation via Cox® Technic may be applied in the gentlest manner in a variety of doctor-controlled situations that are comfortable for the patient. Exercise and nutrition complement the treatment plan. (For wine lovers, new nutritional research stated the benefits of reservatrol and its anti-oxidant effects in reducing the progression of intervertebral disc degeneration at the mitochondrial cell level by eliminating reactive oxygen species!
