Results. Pain Relief. That is what our Burlington and Hamilton
back pain and neck pain patients seek from our
Burlington and Hamilton chiropractic care. Spinal Care Clinic knows
this and delivers this with reasonable expectations lining up with what our spine pain patients desire. Relief
is possible. We will discuss how, how
much, and when.
PATIENT INPUT REGARDING WHAT RELIEF MEANS
Spinal Care Clinic always puts our back pain and
neck pain patients at the center of care. We pay attention
to what our Burlington and Hamilton chiropractic patients want to do that they cannot
do now. It is sensible to put such
a goal/goals at the center of care! A review of 12 studies about
the non-surgical care of chronic low back pain reports
that patient-led goal setting is important in and of
itself as a treatment element to attaining
desired back pain relief. (1) This is welcome news to the
millions of annual chronic low back pain sufferers. They can contribute
to their own relief! That’s why we ask
our Burlington and Hamilton back pain and neck pain sufferers what they want to do
that they can’t do now. The one thing - or several
things – our patients want to do are motivating for us
both1!
SURGICAL OR NON-SURGICAL
Spinal Care Clinic purposely wants to establish
realistic expectations that motivate us all. Many Burlington and Hamilton
back pain sufferers question 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 possibilities:
(A) evidence that immune/auto-immunity may be a factor 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 is 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 have something
to do with the outcomes. (3) At Spinal Care Clinic, our Cox® Technic
System of Spinal Pain Management is documented to be beneficial for
a range of patient conditions.
HOW CHIROPRACTIC CAN HELP WITH RELIEF…AND IN WHAT TIMEFRAME
Burlington and Hamilton 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 have shown
how spinal stiffness may play a role in 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! (4)) Spinal Care Clinic
has a way to deliver what our patients want:
results.
