The Value of Juneau Healthy Living

Healthy living. How do you envision that? Do you embrace it? What are healthy living behaviors? Aurora Chiropractic Center is all for healthy living. Aurora Chiropractic Center sees chiropractic care as a healthy behavior! Juneau chiropractic patients can trust their Juneau chiropractor to be an escort to the healthy lifestyle behaviors that can not only assist them cope with exisiting spine pain issues but also ward off future bouts of spine pain, neck pain, and back pain, and other health issues that are best prevented.

HEALTHY BEHAVIORS

What are some healthy behaviors? A good diet. Exercise. Non-smoking. Low/No alcohol intake. Those make sense, do they not? A recent study proved that men who took advantage of more of these healthy choices had lower possibility of long lasting low back pain and women for neck pain. (1) Eating fruit and vegetables is an additional favorable healthy behavior. This plus the other behaviors are shown to reduce the chance of having long term disturbing low back pain in women and even potentially better the prognosis of low back pain relief. (2) Participating in a community based musculoskeletal physiotherapy program improves the health-related quality of life for patients. (3) Wearing a lumbar support belt increases postural control when standing on unlevel ground.  This may be particularly welcomed by34 patients with non-specific low back pain as they are predisposed to be more unsteady. (4) Aurora Chiropractic Center works with our Juneau back pain patients on their balance and proprioception to help improve their steadiness.

CHOICE OF CARE

Choice of care for health care issues results in more healthy behaviors. When patients are given the opportunity to choose their provider for back pain or neck pain relief (in one study: physical therapy care), costs were lower than if they went to their medical doctor first and were referred. Direct access makes a difference in costs and outcomes. (5) A study of women and their choices of providers for back pain relief found that their knowledge of the doctor’s treatment, social network endorsements, geographical proximity, and credentials of the doctor motivated their choice.
