Manahawkin Chiropractic Center Delivers Chiropractic Back Pain Relief
Back pain is not picky. Back pain may pick any of us at any time whether we are stay-at-home workers or out-in-the-world workers, active military folks or veterans. The reputation of chiropractic for aiding back pain sufferers continues to grow in the civilian and military/veteran care systems. The more recent interest has been how much chiropractic care is optimal for back pain relief. Manahawkin Chiropractic Center follows this research since military/veteran back pain looks a lot like our civilian Manahawkin back pain!
BACK PAIN INCIDENCE
80% of us will experience back pain at some time in our lives, in our youth, middle years, or elder age. 264 million work days were reportedly lost in one year due to back pain. (1) Manahawkin chiropractic care is created to help all ages! Somewhere between 25 and 33% of older folks in fact get low back pain annually. Low back pain for older adults is reported to be debilitating as it often limits their independence and multiplies their doctor visits. A study that merged primary care with chiropractic care for their back pain resulted in modest improvements in their disability and back pain and higher patient satisfaction and perceived improvement over primary care only. (2) Manahawkin Chiropractic Center sees these same outcomes for our Manahawkin back pain patients! Older patients with chronic low back pain along with other medical issues who used only chiropractic spinal manipulation for their back pain had reduced overall costs of care, briefer occurrences of back pain, and decreased costs of care per back pain episode. (3) Back pain relief in a briefer time at less expense…a threefold bonus for Manahawkin back pain sufferers!
BACK PAIN CARE WITH CHIROPRACTIC
Like the rest of us, military personnel and veterans get back pain and get relief with chiropractic care. Chiropractic is well-integrated into the VA system for veterans with low back pain and other musculoskeletal conditions. A newly proposed study of chiropractic care in Veterans Affairs healthcare facilities for low back pain seeks to see if low dose (one to 5 visits) or higher dose (8 to 12 visits) chiropractic care for 10 weeks is most beneficial for chronic low back pain relief. (4) (The Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain Management found in a study of 1000 back pain patients that 12 visits and 29 days were the mean number of visits and days to achieve maximum improvement for such patients. (5)) A related finding was made when chiropractic care was inserted into usual medical care for active-duty military personnel with low back pain. Moderate short-term improvement in back pain intensity and disability was reported. Multidisciplinary care of back pain that incorporates chiropractic is suggested to be beneficial. (6) The aim of Manahawkin chiropractic for back pain sufferers – civilian and military alike – is back pain relief. Manahawkin Chiropractic Center is prepared to provide that!
