“How many times do I have to
see you, doc?” A conventional question for your Murfreesboro
chiropractor. Chiropractic care at Most Chiropractic Clinic goes by an
evidence-based algorithm of care supported by clinical research
that stretches back to the 1970’s: The Cox® Technic System of
Spinal Pain Management. Recent research confirms the
system and its goals in which Murfreesboro chiropractic patients can find
peace as they heal.
CHIROPRACTIC USE
Murfreesboro chiropractic patients wouldn’t
be chiropractic patients if it didn’t help.
The latest study of who uses
chiropractic was done in Malaysia: 35% of Malayasians
utilized chiropractic. Though it was very below traditional and complementary medicine care usage there, it is a good percent!
(1) Approximately 25% of U.S. residents pursued chiropractic
for back and neck pain treatment. 35
million U.S. adults went to a chiropractor in the past
year. (2) That number is growing as additional
people look for and find a non-surgical, conservative
approach to pain relief in chiropractic knowing that it may
take a few visits to get relief. Most Chiropractic Clinic
is committed to setting a realistic treatment plan for the best possible
outcome.
RECENT RESEARCH RESULTS OF CHIROPRACTIC CARE AT 3
MONTHS
Curious about how many chiropractic visits
patients use and the outcomes? A new study found
that in 1,362 chronic low back pain patients and 1,214 chronic neck pain
patients’ function improved and back and neck pain decreased with
chiropractic care in 90 days. Those who reported
worse pain initially had more chiropractic
visits. Chronic low back pain sufferers with more than one visit a week benefitted more. At 3
months, chronic back and neck pain patients were getting
better slowly, may have even attained maximum improvement,
and were potentially managing their chronic pain with
a range of chiropractic visit frequencies. (3) That is
our goal, too, at Most Chiropractic Clinic: educate our Murfreesboro back pain and
neck pain patients about how they can help themselves with pain
management and prevention! With Cox®
Technic, 12 visits and 29 days were the mean days and visits to improvement
in a study of 1000 patients. Disc herniations did take a bit
longer and needed more visits than sprain/strains. (4) Most Chiropractic Clinic
shares statistics like this to help our chiropractic
patients make realistic expectations.
REALISTIC EXPECTATIONS WITH CHIROPRACTIC CARE
Murfreesboro chronic neck and back
pain sufferers are realistic. Despite health policy today that seems
to want a cure for whatever ails, most chronic
spine pain patients pursue pain management that they know
will require ongoing care rather than “cure” from their chiropractic
care. (5) Cox® Technic used at Most Chiropractic Clinic has always shared
the notion of “control not cure” when it comes to most neck pain
and back pain issues. It resonates with neck pain
and back pain sufferers who have looked
for care from so many different providers that they understand it. The 50% Rule
of Cox® Technic makes sense to them: 50% relief in 30 days or referral for
imaging or other consultation, 50% relief drops the visit
frequency by 50%, 50% relief changes the treatment from Protocol I to Protocol
II, etc. The chiropractic care system of Cox® Technic follows an established algorithm
that offers patients realistic expectations.
