Old Mill Chiropractic Works to Deliver Back Pain Relief Goals You Want
Results. Pain Relief. That’s what our St Peters back pain and neck pain patients desire from our St Peters chiropractic care. Old Mill Chiropractic gets this and delivers this with reasonable expectations lining up with what our spine pain patients desire. Relief is possible. We’ll talk about how, how much, and when.
PATIENT INPUT REGARDING WHAT RELIEF MEANS
Old Mill Chiropractic always puts our back pain and neck pain patients at the core of care. We listen to what our St Peters chiropractic patients want to do that they can’t do now. It makes sense to put such a goal/goals at the center of care! A review of 12 studies regarding the non-surgical care of chronic low back pain reports that patient-led goal setting is important in and of itself as part of the treatment plan in getting desired back pain relief. (1) This is welcome news to the millions of annual chronic low back pain sufferers. They can help in their own relief! That is why we question our St Peters 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
Old Mill Chiropractic intentionally wants to set realistic expectations that motivate all of us. Many St Peters 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) recorded long-term complications of lumbar spine fusion (adjacent segment disease, implant failure, etc.), (C) systemic and local reactions to metal instrumentation, (D) ambiguous 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 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. The researchers acknowled that baseline stiffness, BMI, waist circumference and sex may influence the outcomes. (3) At Old Mill Chiropractic, 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
St Peters chiropractic care of back and neck pain addresses a multitude of spinal conditions in patients of all sizes and shapes. Published studies about Cox® Technic measured how spinal stiffness may impact positive outcomes. Spinal manipulation via Cox® Technic may be delivered 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 eliminating reactive oxygen species! (4)) Old Mill Chiropractic has a way to help our patients get what they want: results.
