Results. Pain Relief. That is what our Manahawkin
back pain and neck pain patients want from our
Manahawkin chiropractic care. Manahawkin Chiropractic Center realizes
this and delivers this with reasonable expectations lining up with what our spine pain patients want. Relief
is feasible. We’ll discuss how, how
much, and when.
PATIENT INPUT REGARDING WHAT RELIEF MEANS
Manahawkin Chiropractic Center keeps our back pain and
neck pain patients at the core of care. We listen
to what our Manahawkin chiropractic patients want to do that they cannot
do presently. It is sensible to place such
a goal/goals at the center of care! A review of 12 studies regarding
the non-surgical care of chronic low back pain indicates
that patient-led goal setting is important alone as a treatment element to attaining
desired back pain relief. (1) This is longed-for news to the
millions of annual chronic low back pain sufferers. They can contribute
to their own relief! That’s why we ask
our Manahawkin back pain and neck pain sufferers what they want to do
that they can’t do now. The one thing - or many
things – our patients want to do are motivating for us
both1!
SURGICAL OR NON-SURGICAL
Manahawkin Chiropractic Center purposely wants to set
realistic expectations that motivate us all. Many Manahawkin
back pain sufferers deliberate if surgery is
better/quicker than non-surgical, chiropractic spinal manipulative care. A recent article proposes a few ideas
on surgery for lumbar disc herniation due to pre- and post-surgery possibilities:
(A) evidence that immune/auto-immunity may play a role in
spontaneous resolution of a lumbar disc herniation, (B) recorded
long-term complications of lumbar spine fusion (adjacent segment disease, implant
failure, etc.), (C) systemic and local reactions to metal instrumentation, (D) ambiguous
parameters as to when and for what conditions spinal implant
removal may be warranted, and (E) postoperative lumbar spinal
stiffness. (2) With these concerns in mind, let’s look
at another report that highlights the immediate beneficial
effects of spinal mobilization for low back pain sufferers: decreased
muscle stiffness, elasticity, and tone. The researchers acknowled that
baseline stiffness, BMI, waist circumference and sex may have something
to do with the outcomes. (3) At Manahawkin Chiropractic Center, our Cox® Technic
System of Spinal Pain Management is shown beneficial for
a range of patient conditions.
HOW CHIROPRACTIC CAN HELP WITH RELIEF…AND IN WHAT TIMEFRAME
Manahawkin chiropractic care of back and neck pain addresses a multitude of spinal conditions in patients
of all sizes and shapes. Published studies about Cox® Technic measured
how spinal stiffness may impact positive outcomes. Spinal
manipulation via Cox® Technic may be delivered in the gentlest manner
in a variety of doctor-controlled situations that are comfortable
for the patient. Exercise and nutrition round out the
treatment plan. (For wine lovers, new nutritional research stated
the benefits of reservatrol and its anti-oxidant effects in reducing
the progression of intervertebral disc degeneration at the mitochondrial cell
level by getting rid of reactive oxygen species! (4)) Manahawkin Chiropractic Center
has a way to deliver what our patients want:
results.
