Continued Juneau Chiropractic Care Benefits Back Pain Management
Regular Juneau chiropractic care. A helpful idea? Yep! Consider other good regular care ideas: Endocrinologists recommend that diabetics regularly monitor their blood sugars. Dentists recommend regular teeth cleanings twice a year to keep plaque away. Cardiologists at the American Heart Association recommend doing at least 150 minutes of moderate-to-vigorous aerobic physical activity a week to make an impact on heart health. Health experts recommend regular daily exercise for 30 minutes a day five days a week to maintain optimal health for the body. Nutritionists recommend a good diet daily: fruits, veggies, proteins, fats, etc., to nourish the body properly. Spinal manipulation for back pain relief is recommended by the American College of Physicians, American Pain Society, and the American Medical Association. (1,2) Chiropractors recommend spinal manipulation treatments regularly, too, not necessarily every day once the pain is under control, but regularly to keep in check spine pain – back pain, neck pain, arm pain, leg pain. Aurora Chiropractic Center treats many Juneau chiropractic patients on a regular basis, Juneau chiropractic patients who choose such care to maintain healthy and pain-free spines as best they can.
BACK PAIN STATS
80% of us humans will have no less than one episode of back pain in our lifetime. One in 3 of us experiences back pain this moment. Back pain is known to wax and wane not disappear for life. Aurora Chiropractic Center often informs patients that the current episode of back pain is gaining your attention for a reason. If for no other reason, it is asking for care. It will not be disregarded. Your spine will value a solid treatment plan to get rid of the pain as well as a plan to maintain its mobility and health.
CONTINUED CARE BENEFITS
That’s where regular chiropractic care comes into play. Certainly our Juneau chiropractic patients realize that chiropractic care relieves back pain and neck pain and related extremity pain like arm and leg pain. They also know that they don’t want to suffer with that pain again! While there is no guarantee that back pain or neck pain will not come back, preventing pain and/or its return to as mild as possible is a worthwhile goal as is a goal to be able to do daily activities as pain free and worry free as possible. A recent study called the Nordic Maintenance Care Program found that such chiropractic maintenance care reduced the number of days of bothersome pain that restrained activities and boosted the number of pain free weeks between episodes. These outcomes may well help patients and doctors realistically temper their expectations of care. Maintenance care is not a cure, doesn’t stop new episodes necessarily, but it’s a plan to decrease life-routine disrupting pain for back pain sufferers with recurrent and persistent low back pain.
