“An apple a day…” Everyone can finish that saying!
Access to chiropractic and spinal manipulation for Tonawanda back pain
and neck pain sufferers is reported to do the same. Access
needs to be just as simple as access to apples! According
to research, chiropractic and spinal manipulation relieve pain and diminish
the need for escalated treatments and tests when they are clearly accessible
to neck and back pain sufferers. (Even dogs benefited
from veterinary chiropractic spinal manipulation!) Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation offers
gentle spinal manipulation via a well-explained chiropractic treatment
plan.
CHIROPRACTIC CARE AND SPINAL MANIPULATION AND BACK PAIN
MANAGEMENT
Spinal manipulation is a primary treatment at
Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation with good reason! A rat study of the
effect of manipulation and mobilization and sham treatment on reducing
neuroinflammation in acute lumbar radiculopathy (leg pain) showed
that manipulation and mobilization resulted in more pain relief. Manipulation was a little faster
in delivering relief and halting severe
radiculopathy. (1) Spinal manipulation and mobilization are leading
treatments at Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation for back pain and radiculopathy. We’re
here for you as soon as you bring your back pain and/or leg pain to us!
Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation also knows
that our Tonawanda chiropractic patients are excited
to receive in-office care but not always as excited to do
their at-home care. They are not alone! 89% of chiropractic
patients told researcher they went to their
appointments. That’s the easier part! 82% said their chiropractor’s
recommendations for treatment and at-home care (stretching and exercise) made sense, but only 44% of them actually followed through
in doing the at-home care. (2) We know it’s tough to make
time at home, and we’ll keep doing our best at
every visit to care for your spinal condition…and encourage you to do yours!
SPINAL MANIPULATION AND ACCESS TO CHIROPRACTIC LESSENED
NEED FOR MORE ADVANCED CARE
Researchers questioned just how access
to chiropractic affected medically-directed spinal pain care
in older adults. In an analysis
of Medicare claims for 39,278 older adult chiropractic users, less
access to chiropractic care increased the use of medical
services (primary care physician visits and spine surgeries) for spine pain conditions.
The researchers equated this to an additional cost of $114,967
per 1000 beneficiaries ($391 million nationally). (3) That’s a
lot of money and pain. Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation makes itself accessible
to our Tonawanda spine pain sufferers! Further, 42%
of neck pain patients go on to escalated
treatments like imaging, injection, emergency room, surgery. Neck pain patients
treated with spinal manipulation – 90% of which is delivered
by chiropractors in the US – were less likely to undergo escalated care. Only 26% of spinal manipulation patients went
on to escalated care whereas 46% of neck pain sufferers who pursued
other types of care did. Their risk of treatment escalation was double. (4) Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation delivers
spinal manipulation. Your Tonawanda chiropractor is experienced
in performing safe, gentle, relieving spinal manipulation.
EVEN DOGS BENEFIT FROM CHIROPRACTIC TREATMENT
There are chiropractic colleagues who also are skilled at doing spinal manipulation on animals! Interesting!
Certain dog breeds like boxers tend to develop
spondylosis deformans, a spinal disease noted by disc
degeneration and bone spurs. One study of boxer puppies aged 8 weeks
to one year compared puppies treated with
veterinary chiropractic each month to same aged boxers not
treated with chiropractic. At a year old, the treated
puppies had spondylosis significantly
less (only 25% were found to have it on imaging) than the the
control puppies (46.5% had it on imaging). This implies that
veterinary chiropractic treatment may beneficially lessen
the probably of young boxers getting spondylosis. (5)
Our Tonawanda furry companions benefit with chiropractic
treatment, too!
