So, you want back pain relief to get back to enjoying life like “normal”? Back
pain sufferers can relate to that! Most Chiropractic Clinic knows
this, too, and works closely with our Murfreesboro back
pain patients and their other healthcare providers to get
them back to “normal,” enjoying life again.
REFERRALS TO CHIROPRACTORS FOR CHRONIC LOW BACK PAIN
A recent study described the referral practices
of general practitioners to Danish
chiropractors. Chiropractic clinics that have more than one
chiropractor and also offer diagnostic ultrasound got
more referrals. 31% of the new patients - 2.5 referrals per
week - in chiropractic practices came via general practitioner referral. Chiropractors who sent
more patients to general practitioners also received
more referrals. Those who reported expertise in
geriatric care and had a higher number of new patients each
week got more referrals, too. (1) These findings emphasize
the significance of interprofessional interaction
which your Murfreesboro chiropractor embraces! Most Chiropractic Clinic
works with local Murfreesboro healthcare colleagues in all ways to help our mutual back and
neck pain patients in getting relief and regaining
their quality of life.
QUALITY OF LIFE WITH CHIROPRACTIC MANIPULATION
Quality of life is often a reflection of
how well we feel, especially as we get older. A report of
Medicare recipients who received spinal manipulation (SMT) and/or were prescribed drug therapy (PDT) for their chronic low back pain was very revealing.
Those who got spinal manipulation were more likely to be very
satisfied with their care: 84% for SMT versus 50% for PDT. Those who received
spinal manipulation documented their health-related quality of
life scores significantly higher than those with prescription drug therapy: 12.85
for SMT vs 9.92 for PDT. As for the concern they felt receiving each type of therapy, SMT
patients receiving chiropractic care stated a lower degree of
concern than the PDT patient getting prescription therapy. (2) Our goal at Most Chiropractic Clinic is to lower our
Murfreesboro back pain patients’ concern over their pain condition and
its care by performing a thorough examination, explaining
well what the condition is along with its expected care outcomes, and performing gentle, relieving
care for back pain, neck pain, and other spine-related pain relief.
