Medical Spine and Sports Injury and Rehab Centers Works to Deliver Back Pain Relief Goals You Want
Results. Pain Relief. That’s what our Baton Rouge back pain and neck pain patients want from our Baton Rouge chiropractic care. Medical Spine and Sports Injury and Rehab Centers realizes this and provides this with reasonable expectations in concert with our spine pain patients desire. Relief is possible. We will discuss how, how much, and when.
PATIENT INPUT REGARDING WHAT RELIEF MEANS
Medical Spine and Sports Injury and Rehab Centers always puts our back pain and neck pain patients at the core of care. We pay attention to what our Baton Rouge 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 about the non-surgical care of chronic low back pain reports that patient-led goal setting is effective alone 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 Baton Rouge back pain and neck pain sufferers what they want to do that they miss doing now. The one thing - or several things – our patients want to do are motivating for us both1!
SURGICAL OR NON-SURGICAL
Medical Spine and Sports Injury and Rehab Centers intentionally wants to establish realistic expectations that motivate all of us. Many Baton Rouge back pain sufferers question if surgery is better/quicker than non-surgical, chiropractic spinal manipulative care. A recent article proposes 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) documented 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 conditions spinal implant removal may be warranted, and (E) postoperative lumbar spinal stiffness. (2) With these concerns in mind, let’s look at another report that focuses on the immediate beneficial effects of spinal mobilization for low back pain sufferers: reduced muscle stiffness, elasticity, and tone. Admittedly, baseline stiffness, BMI, waist circumference and sex may have something to do with the outcomes. (3) At Medical Spine and Sports Injury and Rehab Centers, 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
Baton Rouge chiropractic care of back and neck pain addresses 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 round out the treatment plan. (For wine lovers, new nutritional research reported on the benefits of reservatrol and its anti-oxidant effects in slowing the progression of intervertebral disc degeneration at the mitochondrial cell level by getting rid of reactive oxygen species! (4)) Medical Spine and Sports Injury and Rehab Centers has a way to help our patients get what they want: results.
