September 2020 Healthy News from Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation: Cox Technic Relieves Back Pain due to Disc Extrusion with Spondylolytic Spondylolisthesis and Eat an Apple!
Extruded discs by themselves are painful and often deemed surgical issues. Spondylolytic spondylolisthesis alone is a disabling, painful condition and often thought to be a surgical issue needing fusion. Bring these two conditions together in in one patient and the Tonawanda chiropractic patient and the treating physician like your Tonawanda chiropractor encounter a challenge that demands gentle, experienced care. A recently published case report of a patient with a disc extrusion – one that has escaped its outer bands and entered into the spinal canal space – and spondylolytic spondylolisthesis – involving separation of the pars interarticularis – detailed how just 9 visits in a month resulted in pain relief. The patient who ranked his pain a 9 out of 10 (a 10 being the worst pain) on the first visit rated it 0 out of 10 on visit 9. At ten years follow-up, the patient showed no orthopedic or neurological issues and reported no recurrence of the earlier symptoms. (1) What was the treatment plan?

Tonawanda CHIROPRACTIC TIP OF THE MONTH:
Delight in This Apple Season!
Feed the gut. Lose some weight and increase your bone density to improve your spine. Reduce your risk of diabetes and heart disease. Protect the brain. How? Eat an apple! Apples are extraordinarily healthy! They have few calories, good pre-biotic pectin that nourishes the good gut bacteria, plenty of fiber and water to fill you up, loads of polyphenols in the peel which are antioxidant, acetylcholine-level-preserving factors to protect the brain, and flavonoids that may lower blood pressure, cholesterol, and stroke risk. (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8) Apples supplement a healthy chiropractic approach to life!
