Spinal Care Clinic Encourages Adding Mindfulness to Chiropractic Back Pain Care

Mind-body-SPINE connection. The mind-body connection is in the health news a lot. Since we’re a member of the chiropractic profession, Spinal Care Clinic adds “spine” to this connection, rendering it much more specific to what we see in our Burlington and Hamilton back pain and neck pain patients. When the spine hurts, the mind and body can’t help but hurt, too. Spinal Care Clinic designs individualized Burlington and Hamilton chiropractic treatment plans for spine pain, back pain, neck pain and related arm and leg pain sufferers that include chiropractic treatment, nutrition, and home exercise. The addition of mindfulness practices to such spine care practices is often beneficial and encouraged.

MIND-BODY-SPINE PAIN

Spine pain, back pain, neck pain wears on a person. Pain frequently keeps a sufferer from doing what he or she wants/needs to do and from experiencing a joyful life. When working with your Burlington and Hamilton chiropractor at Spinal Care Clinic on the physical pain relief, a back pain sufferer can choose a mindful approach to coping with the mind and its struggle with the pain and associated depression and/or varying levels of sadness is reported to be helpful. In a study of mindfulness-based therapy specifically for sufferers with lumbar disc herniation related back pain, researchers found that mindfulness-based therapy had a positive effect on pain beliefs and psychological well-being. (1) Additionally, researchers discovered that even in countries with accessible, well-developed mental health services, underutilization of those services is common. It’s better than it used to be with all the notice mental health has seen lately. Many don’t seek it out as they could. One curious note about those who do seek help resulted from their knowing someone with a mental health issue which positively motivated them to seek help for their own issue.
