Results. Pain Relief. That’s what our Baton Rouge
back pain and neck pain patients desire from our
Baton Rouge chiropractic care. Spine & Sports Rehab Center gets
this and delivers this with reasonable expectations in concert
with our spine pain patients desire. Relief
is feasible. We’ll discuss how, how
much, and when.
PATIENT INPUT REGARDING WHAT RELIEF MEANS
Spine & Sports Rehab Center keeps our back pain and
neck pain patients at the center of care. We listen
to what our Baton Rouge chiropractic patients want to do that they can’t
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 explains
that patient-led goal setting is important alone as a treatment element to getting
desired back pain relief. (1) This is longed-for news to the
millions of annual chronic low back pain sufferers. They can contribute
to their own relief! That’s why we question
our Baton Rouge 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
Spine & Sports Rehab Center intentionally wants to establish
realistic expectations that motivate all of us. Many Baton Rouge
back pain sufferers wonder 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 issues:
(A) evidence that immune/auto-immunity may play a role 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 is warranted, and (E) postoperative lumbar spinal
stiffness. (2) With these ideas in mind, let’s consider another report that highlights the immediate beneficial
effects of spinal mobilization for low back pain sufferers: reduced
muscle stiffness, elasticity, and tone. The researchers acknowled that
baseline stiffness, BMI, waist circumference and sex may influence the outcomes. (3) At Spine & Sports Rehab Center, 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 cares
for a multitude of spinal conditions in patients
of all sizes and shapes. Published studies about Cox® Technic have shown
how spinal stiffness may impact 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 getting rid of reactive oxygen species! (4)) Spine & Sports Rehab Center
has a way to help our patients get what they want:
results.
