BACK PAIN RELIEF RECOMMENDATIONS
Suggestions and recommendations run the gamut. Apple Country Chiropractic hears about them all the time. Everyone from friends, family members, researchers, doctors, others, have ideas and stories. In light of the wide range of back pain care recommendations, researchers suggest that the standardization of care for back pain - exercise, spinal manipulation and opioid prescriptions – that may benefit back pain sufferers most. (1) We concur. We read the research and mingle it with our experience when developing an individualized treatment plan for our back pain patients. With the expected growth of low back pain through 2050 – from 619 million people around the world to more than 800 million (2) – effective, research-documented, non-drug, non-surgical choices for back pain are welcome, especially ones that are tested and verified as being beneficial. A new paper was just published regarding the care for one type of back pain - continued back pain after back surgery also called failed back surgery syndrome (FBSS) - that often develops into continued or increased opioid pain medication use. The study stated that FBSS patients treated with Cox® Flexion Distraction Decompression Manipulation reported reduction or discontinuation of opioid use during an initial 3-month course of treatment. (3) That’s a positive outcome of a treatment approach to incorporate into the standardized back pain treatment recommendations!
SPECIFIC RECOMMENDATIONS
So what can our Williamson chiropractic patients do to control their back pain and its impact on their lives? Sleep. Be active. Makes their appointments for spinal manipulation. Feedback from 2333 back pain sufferers listed that additional sleep, less sedentariness, and more moderate to vigorous intensity physical activity was beneficial. The authors shared an example of how swapping 30 minutes of sedentary behavior for 30 minutes of sleep reduced low back pain frequency odds by 5% and pain intensity by 2%. Sleep is important! (4) So too is a visit to the Williamson chiropractor for spinal manipulation as recommended in the guidelines published by the American College of Physicians and The American Pain Society as having good evidence of effectiveness for low back pain together with exercise, CBT, and rehabilitation.
