Access and concordance. Agreement with the plan and access
to the plan. These are the keys to favorable
outcomes with chiropractic care. In Tonawanda, access to chiropractic
is straightforward. Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation invites back
pain and neck pain patients to share their pain
symptoms openly to foster a pain relieving treatment
plan to which they can they can agree.
CONCORDANCE IS A BIG KEY TO BEST CLINICAL OUTCOMES
Chiropractic services for neck and back pain have been shown
efficacious as many randomized clinical trials have been
completed. Chiropractic services are accepted as effective for back and neck pain relief. A new study describes the satisfaction
of patients who either adhere to the proposed
treatment frequency guidelines or do not. Neck pain and back pain patients were said to be “concordant”
(5 or more visits within any 2-month time period or at least 12 visits throughout
the year) or “discordant” (not having 5 or more visits in a 2-month time period
or 12 visits in a year) and their characteristics were documented. Most
chiropractic users with diagnosed neck or back pain were considered
“discordant” with treatment frequency guidelines and their healthcare bills
for chiropractic care were only $434 versus $2555 for “concordant” patients. Physical
function issues played a role
among other items for these patients. (1) Don’t let
physical function make you discordant or hold you back from coming to
your visits! Make your visits. Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation knows the treatment plan with the Cox®
Technic System of Spinal Pain Management that is most effective
for your spine pain issue. Talk with us about your concerns

ACCESS TO CHIROPRACTIC SERVICES
Older adults who do not have such access to chiropractic
care are seen to more frequently use some
medical services for spine conditions. Medicare data of 39,278
chiropractic care recipients who moved geographically from an area with more access to chiropractic care to an area which had less access
to revealed that these patients ended up having
more visits to primary care physicians for spine issues (a rise
of 32.3 visits more annually) and were more likely to undergo
spinal surgery (5.5 more surgeries per annum). Financially, this reduced
access to chiropractic care for spine issues resulted in more
expense to Medicare: an extra $114,967 per 1,000 beneficiaries on medical
services (equaling $391 million nationally). (2) Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation
is open here in Tonawanda to relieve pain and save money on spine pain
relief services.
YOU AND YOUR INPUT MATTER
What
you share with your Tonawanda chiropractor is crucial
to your pain-relieving treatment plan. An Australian study of chiropractors
found that chiropractors utilize patient documented
outcome measures (PROMs) to formulate and adjust the treatment plan
and evaluate the treatment response of lumbar spine pain patients. (3) Tell your Tonawanda chiropractic honestly how
you are feeling. Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation is listening!
