As your Plainville chiropractor, I
have seen firsthand the positive
impact that various
types of patients can experience from
chiropractic care. From those dealing
with back pain to office
workers managing
the consequences of
prolonged sitting, and even
athletes looking to return to their sport and/or enhance
their performance,
chiropractic treatment can
deliver
various benefits.
In this blog, check out
these three key
reasons why you may want to
contemplate visiting a
chiropractor at
Layden Chiropractic for your Plainville back pain and other
musculoskeletal
conditions.
CHIROPRACTORS REDUCE BACK
PAIN
One of the top reasons people
seek out
Plainville chiropractic care is to
address back pain.
According to a national cross-sectional survey
published in Chiropractic
& Manual
Therapies, 62% of patients said they chose
chiropractic care for back pain.
Furthermore, a systematic
review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled
trials reported
that spinal manipulative therapy (a
common technique utilized by
chiropractors) was effective in
lowering chronic low
back pain for 92% and
boosting mobility for 80% compared to
other treatments or no treatment what so ever. (1) This evidence indicates
that undergoing chiropractic
care
can give relief for those suffering from back
pain.
Bonus: Our Plainville
chiropractic practice features
use of The Cox® Technic System of Spinal
Pain Management that has over 55 years
of documented clinical experience,
biomechanical research, and funded
research (NIH, HRSA) performed with respected
research facilities like Hines VA, Loyola Stritch
School of Medicine, Palmer,
National University of Health Sciences, Auburn,
etc. See
the complete list of case reports and
research papers online!
CHIROPRACTIC REDUCES RELIANCE ON OPIOID PAIN
MEDICATIONS
In recent years, there has
been expanded
concern about the overuse and
potential harm of
opioid pain medications. However,
research has shown
that chiropractic care may be an effective
alternative for managing
musculoskeletal pain without
depending on these powerful
drugs. A retrospective observational study
published in Chiropractic &
Manual Therapies found
that older Medicare beneficiaries with
spinal pain who received
chiropractic care were less likely to take
prescription opioids compared to those who
did not receive
chiropractic care. (2) This is a
valuable finding, as it emphasizes
the potential role of chiropractors
like yours at Layden Chiropractic
in positively dealing with the
opioid epidemic.
CHIROPRACTIC PATIENTS ARE SATISFIED WITH
CARE
In addition to
reducing
pain and reliance on medication,
many patients describe
a high degree of satisfaction
with their chiropractic care.
The same national cross-sectional survey
mentioned earlier stated
that 87% of patients reported being satisfied or very
satisfied with their overall
experience of chiropractic care.
Another study distributed in the
British Medical Journal demonstrated that
chiropractic care was related to significantly higher
satisfaction scores compared to usual medical care
for low back pain. (3) This implies
that not only does chiropractic care
deliver effective
treatment, but it also promotes a
positive patient experience. Bonus:
Our Cox® Technic care has
documented patient satisfaction in
case reports and clinical studies!
