Back pain isn’t choosy. Back pain may
find any of us at any time whether we’re
stay-at-home workers or out-in-the-world workers, active
military folks or veterans. The reputation of chiropractic for relieving back pain sufferers continues to grow in the civilian and veteran/military
care systems. The more recent curiosity has been how
much chiropractic care is best for back pain relief.
Most Chiropractic Clinic keeps track of this research since
military/veteran back pain looks a lot like our civilian
Murfreesboro back pain!
BACK PAIN INCIDENCE
80% of us will get back pain at some point
in our lives, in our youth, middle years, or elder age. 264 million
work days were reportedly lost in one year because of back pain. (1) Murfreesboro chiropractic care is made
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 their doctor visits. A study that combined 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 alone. (2)
Most Chiropractic Clinic sees these same outcomes for our
Murfreesboro back pain patients! Older patients with chronic low back
pain along with other medical issues who utilized
only chiropractic spinal manipulation for their back pain had reduced
overall costs of care, shorter episodes of back
pain, and lower costs of care per back pain episode. (3) Back
pain relief in a briefer time at less expense…a triple
bonus for Murfreesboro
back pain sufferers!
BACK PAIN CARE WITH CHIROPRACTIC
Like the rest of us, military personnel and veterans
get back pain and get relief
with chiropractic care. Chiropractic is well-integrated into
the VA system for veterans with low back pain and other musculoskeletal
conditions. A recently 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 most beneficial
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 inserted
into usual medical care for active-duty military personnel who
had low back pain. Moderate short-term improvement in back pain intensity and disability was documented.
Multidisciplinary care of back pain that includes
chiropractic is indicated as being beneficial. (6) The aim
of Murfreesboro chiropractic for back pain sufferers – civilian and
military alike – is back pain relief. Most Chiropractic Clinic is prepared to provide
that!
