DON’T FEAR! BE CONFIDENT WITH YOUR SPINE.
Chiropractors see it every day. Williamson back pain patients stay away from
lifting or worry about using their spines for things
like lifting out of fear of (re)injury and pain. Researchers state that chronic
low back pain patients are inclined to protect their spines by lifting
utilizing a reduced lumbar spine range of motion. Doing
this for a long period of time may end up hurting more than
helping. The lumbar spine tissues may experience extra
loading due to altered spine motion. (1) Fear-avoidance is a natural reaction in back pain patients. Don’t
feel funny if you do this for a while! Within our
Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain
Management, we encourage our back pain patients to get back to normal spinal motions gradually as their pain lowers
and their exercise routine strengthens their spines via Williamson chiropractic
treatment, exercise, and nutrition. Apple Country Chiropractic and you will get there
together! Apple Country Chiropractic is your partner in controlling back pain, so it doesn’t control you.
Listen to this PODCAST
with Dr. Clint Dickason on The
Back Doctors Podcast with Dr. Michael Johnson as he describes
his care of a nurse with back pain and sciatic leg pain using the Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain
Management to help her get back to doing the activities
of daily life and her job, including bending, lifting and
twisting.
Williamson CHIROPRACTIC TIP OF THE MONTH: CURCUMIN FOR CHRONIC PAIN RELIEF AND
IMPROVED COGNITION
Cognitive impairment is observed
in patients with chronic neuropathic pain. A recent study on the
effects of curcumin describes improvement in cognitive impairment
and reduction of chronic pain as a result of compressed
sciatic nerves in rats. Curcumin is reported to ease
chronic constriction injury related behaviors and memory deficits by lowering
inflammatory cytokines. (2) Sciatica
is irritation of the sciatic nerve causing leg pain. If
you have sciatica, do you notice issues with cognition? Curcumin’s
anti-inflammatory properties are something to be considered
in the nutritional approach to chronic pain and Williamson sciatic leg
pain. Apple Country Chiropractic does!
