The WORLDWIDE Role of Chiropractic for Back
Pain
It’s the time for chiropractic!
Yorkville Chiropractic and Wellness Centre is excited to offer chiropractic services in
Toronto and be a part of this time in healthcare. Lancet, one of the leading
medical journals, published a series of articles
on the sad way8 healthcare
systems around the globe are managing low back pain. Back pain is an
enormous problem the world over and
growing worse. And chiropractic is “perfectly placed to be a
major player in providing a part of the solution to the global challenge of low
back” if its providers follow guidelines (like your chiropractor strives to do!) to
not order excessive x-rays, stick to evidence-based
care clinical practice guidelines, and keep up-to-date
of the most recent research (and even participating
in research when able!). Chiropractic is known
for its role in caring for back pain. It needs to find its way into mainstream
healthcare to take care of more back pain and neck pain
sufferers non-pharmacologically and non-surgically. (1) The World Federation of
Chiropractic is creating27 toolkits for chiropractors to engage
with public health communities and be of more
assistance to patients and communities within
the health system as respected partners for their health
and well-being. (2) Your Toronto chiropractor at Yorkville Chiropractic and Wellness Centre is
grateful for this sponsorship and foreshight
from a world chiropractic organization as that is just what this Toronto
chiropractic practice of Yorkville Chiropractic and Wellness Centre plans to do here in
Toronto.
Listen in to this PODCAST
with Dr. Christophe Dean on The
Back Doctors Podcast with Dr. Michael Johnson about how he integrates
Cox® Technic into his Toronto patient care to help ease
back pain.
TIP OF THE MONTH: Wear a Back Support
Low back pain patients at Yorkville Chiropractic and Wellness Centre may find value in wearing a lumbar back belt. New research reveals
that a lumbar support belt doesn’t inevitably
cause muscle weakness but rather improves
walking distance capability for spinal stenosis patients with
intermittent claudication, reduces pain and fear of pain,
lessens use of pain medications, and strengthens
muscle strength, flexibility, and activities of daily living. (3-10) All
good! Your chiropractor cautiously considers
when and if to recommend back braces for each individual Toronto
back pain patient as he or she heals with Toronto
chiropractic care, understanding the advantages
back braces may give along the way.
