CHRONIC BACK PAIN RELIEF WITH CHIROPRACTIC

Chronic back pain drives many sufferers to their doctors for help. Chronic back pain’s impact on the sufferer and his/her “default mode network” of living reflects the years lived with pain: the longer the pain stage the more influence the pain has on the patient and his/her cognitive pain coping attitude. (1) Not surprising, but it’s now published and will likely be analyzed more. It’s also understood that lumbar spinal stenosis patients differ in their symptom severity and improvement track from “improving” to “fluctuating/improving” to “persistent.” (2) Back pain is really a unique journey, one your chiropractor goes on with you as chiropractic care’s spinal manipulation tops clinical practice guidelines’ lists of noninvasive, non-drug pain therapies. (3) As a matter of published fact, non-surgical, conservative care choices lead treatment recommendations lists. Spinal manipulation, chiropractic’s forte, is a leading recommendation in many treatment recommendation lists by groups like the American College of Physicians and the American Pain Society. (4) Using chiropractic care and such approaches as mindfulness - which has been shown to improve pain-related functions - may be most helpful for you. (5)

Listen to this PODCAST with Dr. Joseph Beissel and his chronic back pain patient on The Back Doctors Podcast with Dr. Michael Johnson  about the utilization of The Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain Management treatment protocols to manage chronic back pain and allow you to enjoy your life a bit more.
