NON-DRUG CHIROPRACTIC CARE
In chiropractic, non-pharmacological, non-drug treatment of herniated discs is the goal. The Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain Management has evolved over the past 60+ years to give hope to the disc herniation patient via a complete examination, informed diagnosis, and research-based treatment plan that incorporates non-pharmacological care: spinal manipulation, nutrition and exercise. Usually, a patient with a disc herniation is prompted to begin on day one with 3 gentle motion exercises. (Note: Don’t start until your Richmond chiropractor shows you how to do them!) They are beneficial for your spine, your pain, and your sense of control of the situation. Sp valuable!
EFFECTIVE AND COST-EFFECTIVE TREATMENT OF BACK PAIN
A recent comparison study of non-pharmacological, non-drug care versus pharmacological drug care of non-acute low back pain revealed the advantages of non-pharmacological care. The groups were analyzed before and after nine weeks of care. The results disclosed better improvement in the non-pharmacological group at lower cost. The researchers stated that a non-drug approach could be more effective clinically as well as financially. (1) Back pain patients with disc herniation can find hope in that! Johnson Chiropractic is well-trained in the non-drug care of Richmond back pain.
