Williamson chiropractic patients can believe their Williamson chiropractor to be an escort to the healthy lifestyle behaviors that can not only assist them cope with current spine pain issues but also ward off future episodes of spine pain, neck pain, and back pain, and other health issues that are best avoided.
HEALTHY BEHAVIORS
What are some healthy behaviors? A good diet. Exercise. Not smoking. Low/No alcohol intake. Those make sense, don’t they? A recent study proved that men who took advantage of more of these healthy choices had decreased possibility of long duration low back pain and women for neck pain. (1) Eating fruit and vegetables is an additional advantageous healthy behavior. This in addition to the other behaviors are shown to lessen the risk of having long term disturbing low back pain in women and even potentially better the prognosis of low back pain relief. (2) Taking part in a community based musculoskeletal physiotherapy program enhances the health-related quality of life for patients. (3) Using a lumbar support belt increases postural control when standing on unstable ground. This may be notably welcomed by34 patients with non-specific low back pain as they are prone to be more unsteady. (4) Apple Country Chiropractic works with our Williamson back pain patients on their balance and proprioception to help improve their steadiness.
CHOICE OF CARE
Choice of care for health care issues leads to more healthy behaviors. When patients are able 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 results in a difference in costs and outcomes. (5) A study of women and their choices of providers for back pain relief reports that their knowledge of the doctor’s treatment, social network endorsements, geographical proximity, and credentials of the doctor motivated their choice.
