BACK PAIN RELIEF RECOMMENDATIONS
Suggestions and recommendations run the gamut.
Manchester Chiropractic & Sports Injuries hears about them all the time. Everyone from
friends, family members, researchers, doctors, others, have thoughts
and stories. In light of the inconsistency of back
pain care recommendations, researchers suggest that the standardization
of back pain care - exercise, spinal manipulation and
opioid prescriptions – that may benefit back pain sufferers
most. (1) We concur. We read
the research and combine it with our
experience when developing a personalized treatment
plan for our back pain patients. With the predicted growth of low
back pain through 2050 – from 619 million people globally
to more than 800 million (2) – effective, research-documented, non-drug,
non-surgical choices for back pain are welcome, particularly
ones that are tried and documented
as beneficial. A recent
paper was just published regarding
the care for one type of back pain - continued back pain after
back surgery known as failed back surgery syndrome
(FBSS) - that often develops into continued or increased opioid
pain medication use. The study found
that FBSS patients treated with Cox® Flexion Distraction Decompression
Manipulation reported reduction or discontinuation of opioid use during an initial 3-month course of treatment. (3) That is an
encouraging outcome of a treatment approach to incorporate
into the standardized back pain treatment recommendations!
SPECIFIC RECOMMENDATIONS
So what can our Manchester chiropractic patients do
to control their back pain and its impact on their lives?
Sleep. Be active. Makes their appointments for spinal manipulation. Feedback from 2333 back pain
sufferers noted that more sleep, less sedentariness,
and increased moderate to vigorous intensity physical activity was
beneficial. The authors described an example of how swapping 30
minutes of sedentary behavior for 30 minutes of sleep reduced
low back pain frequency odds by 5% and pain intensity by 2%. Sleep is vital!
(4) So too is a visit to the Manchester chiropractor for spinal
manipulation as it is listed in the recommendations
by the American College of Physicians and The American Pain Society as having
good evidence of effectiveness for low back pain along with
exercise, CBT, and rehabilitation. (5) Manchester Chiropractic & Sports Injuries is experienced in delivering
gentle, safe spinal manipulation via Cox® Technic protocols, creating
a simple exercise plan, and referring out for
therapy and/or more advance rehab as needed or wanted.
