March 12, 2019

Before undergoing back surgery, Manahawkin back pain sufferers can benefit from pre-back surgery chiropractic care and exercise. Research continues to share the value of non-surgical treatment for back pain relief. Manahawkin Chiropractic Center is the chiropractic care office in Manahawkin for both!

CHIROPRACTIC SPINAL MANIPULATION BEFORE BACK SURGERY

Self-care is frequently recommended as initial treatment for back pain patients. If that doesn’t produce the desired results, adding non-drug therapy for acute low back pain – spinal manipulation – and for chronic or subacute back pain – spinal manipulation, intensive interdisciplinary rehab, exercise, acupuncture, massage, yoga, cognitive behavioral therapy - is recommended by medical physician groups like the American College of Physicians and American Pain Society. (1) Manahawkin Chiropractic Center delivers a gentle, evidence-based spinal manipulation treatment known as Cox® Technic to relieve back pain that may well help Manahawkin back pain sufferers avoid back surgery and manage their back pain more independently.

EXERCISE FOR BACK PAIN RELIEF

Back pain sufferers would like to help themselves as much as possible. Manahawkin Chiropractic Center knows this. Exercise is shown positive for non-surgical pain relief for patients with spinal stenosis. (2) The proper type of exercise is vital, so we will talk about what is right for you! Maybe Pilates would be your exercise of choice. A study of chronic musculoskeletal pain patients who tried a Pilates-based exercise program discovered that the pain patients better functioned and managed their pain condition more independently and effectively. They performed better at work, enjoyed hobbies more, were inspired to keep exercising, did more to make do with their own pain conditions independently. These, in turn, helped them enjoy a healthier way of life. (3) These benefits arose without back surgery.

EXERCISE BEFORE BACK SURGERY

Researchers set up a trial of exercise for back pain patients headed to back surgery. They explained the back pain condition to the patients carefully. They set up exercise programs for each patient to perform. They discovered that back pain patients who underwent this pre-surgery program of description and exercise gained benefit in several ways: The back pain sufferers noticed improvement exercising than being inactive while waiting for surgery. The back pain sufferers’ mental state got better as they exercised. They had time to reflect on their treatment and lifestyle options. Even patients who did not describe symptom improvement responded well to this program as they thought themselves more confident managing their pain themselves. (4) These are all positive outcomes Manahawkin back pain patients find in their chiropractic care at Manahawkin Chiropractic Center. Control not cure is a realistic goal when dealing with back pain.
