Chiropractic Care for Tonawanda Back Pain Advised by Harvard

Harvard Health Letter suggests chiropractic for disc herniation back pain.

As the saying goes: “When Harvard talks, people listen.” Sure, that is an adaptation of the motto, but Harvard’s reputation does get people’s attention. In the November 2017 issue of the Harvard Health Letter, a prime article titled “Where to turn for low back pain relief. In most cases, a primary care doctor or chiropractor can help you resolve the problem.” presents back pain and whom back pain sufferers should turn to for help. The Harvard recommendation is a chiropractor (like your Tonawanda chiropractor at Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation or primary care doctor. Dr. Matthew Kowalski, a chiropractor on staff at Harvard’s Osher Clinical Center for Integrative Medicine at the Harvard-affiliated Brigham and Women’s Hospital, remarks that 35% to 42% of back pain sufferers seek care from a chiropractor for their first attack of back pain. (1) Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation concurs that many of the Tonawanda back pain sufferers coming for Tonawanda chiropractic care do so with a first attack of Tonawanda back pain.
 

CONTROL OF BACK PAIN

That first episode of Tonawanda back pain care is critical as to how the first Tonawanda back pain episode goes as well as how future back pain episodes may be controlled. The objective, of course, would be to block all future Tonawanda back pain episodes, but that may not always be realistic. And that’s ok, too. There is control. Control of body motions like bending, lifting and twisting. Control of body muscle like exercising what there is (or isn’t of muscle!) to make it strong and resilient. Control of diet to decrease inflammatory consumption and improve the consumption of joint supporting nutrients. Control is key. Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation encourages a well-rounded Tonawanda treatment plan that comprises these control factors once the current pain eases as Harvard’s newsletter points out, chiropractors like your Tonawanda chiropractor uses hands-on spinal manipulation (particularly Cox Technic at Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation) and exercise, diet and stretching programs to help back pain. It is truly a whole-body approach!

CHIROPRACTIC MANAGEMENT OF CARE OPTIONS

The chiropractor as the first episode specialist recognizes back pain and the options appropriate to help. As Harvard’s Dr. Kowalski describes, the well-trained chiropractor (and your Tonawanda chiropractor at Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation is!) will oversee your case. If the back pain sufferer should require a different form of care, the chiropractor will coordinate that care and appointment should it be with a neurologist, physiatrist, physical therapist, pain management doctor, or spinal surgeon. Chiropractors work agreeably with all these of  healthcare specialists. For back sprains/strains and herniated discs, Harvard’s health newsletter states that “a visit to your primary care physician or chiropractor may be all it takes to feel better.”
