Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation Relieves Chronic Neck and Back Pain
“How many visits will I have to make, doc?” A familiar question for your Tonawanda chiropractor. Chiropractic care at Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation goes by an evidence-based algorithm of care supported by clinical research that extends back to the 1970’s: The Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain Management. Recent research confirms the system and its goals in which Tonawanda chiropractic patients can find calm as they heal.
CHIROPRACTIC USE
Tonawanda chiropractic patients wouldn’t be chiropractic patients if it didn’t produce beneficial results. The latest study of who utilizes chiropractic was done in Malaysia: 35% of Malayasians used chiropractic. Though it was very lower than traditional and complementary medicine care usage there, it is a good percent! (1) About 25% of U.S. residents sought chiropractic for back and neck pain care. 35 million U.S. adults went to a chiropractor in the past year. (2) That number is expanding as more people look for and find a non-surgical, conservative approach to pain relief in chiropractic understanding that it may require a few visits to obtain relief. Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation is committed to setting a realistic treatment plan for optimal outcome.
RECENT RESEARCH RESULTS OF CHIROPRACTIC CARE AT 3 MONTHS
Wondering how many chiropractic visits patients use and the outcomes? A recent study reported that in 1,362 chronic low back pain patients and 1,214 chronic neck pain patients’ function improved and back and neck pain decreased with chiropractic care in 90 days. Those who reported worse pain initially went for more chiropractic visits. Chronic low back pain sufferers with more than one visit a week benefitted more. At 3 months, chronic neck and back pain patients were improving slowly, may have even reached maximum improvement, and were potentially managing their chronic pain using a range of chiropractic visit frequencies. (3) That’s our goal, too, at Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation: educate our Tonawanda back pain and neck pain patients about how they can support themselves with pain management and prevention! With Cox® Technic, 12 visits and 29 days were the mean days and visits to improvement in a study of 1000 patients. Disc herniations did take a bit longer and required more visits than sprain/strains.

REALISTIC EXPECTATIONS WITH CHIROPRACTIC CARE
Tonawanda chronic back and neck pain patients are realistic. Despite health policy today that seems to pursue a cure for whatever is wrong, most chronic spine pain patients seek pain management that they know will necessitate ongoing care rather than “cure” from their chiropractic care. (5) Cox® Technic used at Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation has always shared the idea of “control not cure” when it comes to most neck pain and back pain issues. It resonates with neck pain and back pain sufferers who have pursued care from a variety of different healthcare professionals that they “get” it. The 50% Rule of Cox® Technic makes sense to them: 50% relief in 30 days or referral for imaging or other consultation, 50% relief decreases the visit frequency by 50%, 50% relief changes the treatment from Protocol I to Protocol II, etc. The chiropractic care system of Cox® Technic follows an established algorithm that offers patients realistic expectations.
