A new goal for the new goal. We all aim for something new in a new year. For Toronto back pain patients, less back pain is a reasonable goal with Yorkville Chiropractic and Wellness Centre by your side. Back pain sufferers may feel alone, but they aren’t, and research keeps producing and publishing hopeful reports of what works so that both the back pain sufferer and the chiropractor - and other involved healthcare providers – provide the optimal care for the optimal outcome: reduced back pain. Start 2024 off right with Yorkville Chiropractic and Wellness Centre’s assistance for back pain relief! We have lots of effective chiropractic services.
BACK PAIN RELIEF RECOMMENDATIONS
They run the gamut. Yorkville Chiropractic and Wellness Centre hears about them all the time. Everyone from friends, family members, researchers, doctors, etc., have thoughts and stories. In light of the variability of back pain care recommendations, researchers propose that the standardization of back pain care - exercise, spinal manipulation and opioid prescriptions – that may benefit back pain sufferers most favorably. (1) We concur. We read the research and combine it with our experience when developing a personalized treatment plan for our back pain patients. With the expected growth of low back pain through 2050 – from 619 million people around the world to more than 800 million (2) – effective, research-documented, non-drug, non-surgical choices for back pain are welcome, especially ones that are tried and documented to be beneficial. A new paper was just published regarding the care for one type of back pain - continued back pain after back surgery known as failed back surgery syndrome (FBSS) - that often develops into continued or increased opioid pain medication use. The study reported that FBSS patients treated with Cox® Flexion Distraction Decompression Manipulation reported reduction or discontinuation of opioid use in the course of an initial 3-month course of treatment. (3) That’s an encouraging outcome of a treatment approach to include in the standardized back pain treatment recommendations!
SPECIFIC RECOMMENDATIONS
So what can our Toronto chiropractic patients do to control their back pain and its effect on their lives? Sleep. Keep active. Undergo spinal manipulation. Feedback from 2333 back pain sufferers listed that additional sleep, less sedentariness, and more moderate to vigorous intensity physical activity was beneficial. The authors shared an example of how swapping 30 minutes of sedentary behavior for 30 minutes of sleep lowered low back pain frequency odds by 5% and pain intensity by 2%. Sleep is vital! (4) So too is a visit to the Toronto chiropractor for spinal manipulation as it is listed in the recommendations by the American College of Physicians and The American Pain Society as having good evidence of effectiveness for low back pain along with exercise, CBT, and rehabilitation. (5) Yorkville Chiropractic and Wellness Centre is experienced in delivering gentle, safe spinal manipulation via Cox® Technic protocols, designing a simple exercise plan, and recommending therapy and/or more advance rehab as necessary or wanted. Trust us to help! Our Toronto back pain patients are in good hands.
