Yorkville Chiropractic and Wellness Centre Delivers Chiropractic Back Pain Relief
Back pain isn’t picky. Back pain may choose any of us at any time whether we are stay-at-home workers or out-in-the-world people, active military people or veterans. Chiropractic’s reputation for relieving back pain sufferers persists and grows in the civilian and veteran/military care systems. The newer curiosity has been how much chiropractic care is optimal for back pain relief. Yorkville Chiropractic and Wellness Centre keeps track of this research since military/veteran back pain resembles our civilian Toronto 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 documented to be lost in one year due to back pain. (1) Toronto chiropractic care is created to help all ages! Somewhere between 25 and 33% of older folks in fact experience low back pain each year. Low back pain for older adults is reported to be debilitating as it often curbs their independence and increases the number of doctor visits they have. A study that merged chiropractic and primary care for their back pain brought about modest improvements in their back pain and disability and higher patient satisfaction and perceived improvement over primary care only. (2) Yorkville Chiropractic and Wellness Centre sees these same outcomes for our Toronto back pain patients! Older patients with chronic low back pain along with other medical issues who employed only chiropractic spinal manipulation for their back pain had lower 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 triple bonus with Toronto chiropractic care for back pain sufferers!
BACK PAIN CARE WITH CHIROPRACTIC
Like the rest of us, military personnel and veterans struggle with back pain and experience 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 sets out to see if low dose (one to 5 visits) or higher dose (8 to 12 visits) chiropractic care for 10 weeks is optimal for chronic low back pain relief. (4) (The Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain Management discovered in a study of 1000 back pain patients that 12 visits and 29 days were the mean number of visits and days to get patients maximally improved. (5)) A similar finding was made when chiropractic care was added to 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 involves chiropractic is indicated as being beneficial. (6) The goal of Toronto chiropractic for back pain sufferers – civilian and military alike – is back pain relief. Yorkville Chiropractic and Wellness Centre is prepared to deliver that!
