Manahawkin chiropractic patients can trust their Manahawkin chiropractor to be a guide to the healthy lifestyle behaviors that can not only assist them cope with current spine pain issues but also ward off future bouts of spine pain, neck pain, and back pain, and other health issues that are best avoided.
HEALTHY BEHAVIORS
What are some healthy behaviors? A good diet. Exercise. Non-smoking. Low/No alcohol intake. Those sound about right, do they not? A new study proved that men who took advantage of more of these healthy choices had lower possibility of long lasting low back pain and women for neck pain. (1) Eating fruit and vegetables is another favorable healthy behavior. This plus the other behaviors appeared to lessen the possibility of developing long term troubling low back pain in women and even potentially better the prognosis of low back pain relief. (2) Participating in a community based musculoskeletal physiotherapy program enhances the health-related quality of life for patients. (3) Using a lumbar support orthosis increases postural control when standing on unstable ground. This may be especially helpful for patients with non-specific low back pain as they are predisposed to be more unsteady. (4) Manahawkin Chiropractic Center works with our Manahawkin back pain patients on their balance and proprioception to help improve their steadiness.
CARE CHOICE
Choice of care for health care issues leads to more healthy behaviors. When patients are able to choose their provider for back pain or neck pain relief (in one study: physical therapy care), costs were less than if they sought care from their medical doctor first and were referred. Direct access makes a difference in costs and outcomes. (5) A study of women and their choices of providers for back pain relief shows that their familiarity with the doctor’s treatment, social network recommendations, how close they were to the doctor’s office, and doctor’s qualifications prompted their choice.
