December 2025 Healthy News from Yorkville Chiropractic and Wellness Centre: Better Sleep and Back Pain Relief

WHY DO BACK PAIN SUFFERERS KEEP CHOOSING CHIROPRACTIC CARE?

Surveys. Reviews. Testimonials. They’re everywhere. But what’s most important? How the care is for YOU! A new Danish survey had 97% of patients report ‘very high’ or ‘high’ degree of overall satisfaction with care. What influenced that? Your own journey, honest conversations about your treatment plan, thorough evaluation of your spinal issue, and proven results that give you confidence in your progress. (1) Chiropractic patients aren't just satisfied with their care—they're genuinely enthusiastic about it. What makes this satisfaction particularly compelling is that it's backed by real, measurable science. Amjad et al. (2) demonstrated that 12 weeks of chiropractic spinal adjustments led to measurable improvements in blood biomarkers associated with neuroplasticity, inflammation, and stress, providing objective evidence of the body's positive physiological response to treatment. Additionally, Nyirö et al. (3) found that spinal manipulation significantly improved lumbar proprioception—the body's awareness of spinal position and movement—and linked these proprioceptive improvements directly to pain relief in patients. Together, these studies suggest that patient satisfaction with chiropractic care is supported by demonstrable biological mechanisms, including favorable changes in blood markers and boosted sensory function that correlate with reduced pain.

TIP OF THE MONTH: Better Sleep, Less Back Pain; Less Back Pain, Better Sleep

The connection between back pain and poor sleep makes for a vicious cycle that many patients know all too well—you can't sleep because your back hurts, and the loss of quality sleep makes the pain feel even worse. Recent research confirms this frustrating reality: Lee et al. found that back pain actually precedes sleep problems in older men, suggesting that addressing the pain first could be the key to breaking the cycle. (4) Meanwhile, Rahbar et al. discovered a strong link between chronic back problems and poor sleep quality in older adults, with those suffering from persistent back pain significantly more likely to report sleep disturbances. (5) Here's the encouraging news for our chiropractic patients at Yorkville Chiropractic and Wellness Centre: by effectively managing back pain through spinal adjustments and care, you're doing double duty—easing your back pain while opening the door to deeper, more rejuvenating sleep. When the pain that's been keeping you tossing and turning finally eases, your body can do what it's made to do at night: rest, repair, and recharge for tomorrow.
