SPINAL MANIPULATION LOWERS COST OF BACK PAIN CARE
Back pain is not cheap. With the cost of spine pain in the US estimated to be $134.5 billion (1), Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation is fairly certain that our chiropractic patients would be happy with cost-effective care. A newer Canadian study of high-cost back pain patients in the healthcare system found that they accounted for almost 50% of the healthcare spending in a year. (2) Another paper published results showing that spine-related pain patients who see a chiropractor first also had reduced costs and healthcare services compared with medical management. (1) We know our Tonawanda chiropractic patients would like coordination of care whenever possible among their healthcare professionals to get the most economical and effective care.
HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS WORKING TOGETHER
Healthcare professionals working together benefit patients suffering with Tonawanda back and other spine-related conditions. A study in South Africa evaluated the relationship and understanding of each other’s professions between chiropractors and physiotherapists. Eye-opening outcomes! Each profession assessed the other’s with regards to what conditions it treated, what modalities it used, how well each did at helping neuromusculoskeletal conditions. Interprofessional referrals for chiropractors were 82% and 55% for physiotherapists though 69% of chiropractors and 55% of physiotherapists wanted to work together in managing patients for their pain relief. (3) We healthcare providers want to keep our patients in the center of the treatment plan to reduce their pain and healthcare usage.
SMT REDUCES PAIN OF BACK PAIN
For chronic low back pain patients, those whose pain lasts over 3 months that leads to emotional distress and physical disability and more healthcare care, 12 sessions of spinal manipulation delivered greater pain relief than a control intervention. (4) Another study of 1000 low back pain sufferers treated with Cox® Technic flexion distraction protocols also showed that a mean of 12 visits in 29 days produced maximum clinical improvement. Plus, less than 9% of the low back pain patients continued to the chronic phase. (5) Preventing chronic pain is a commendable effort!
