Geriatric back pain patients benefit from combined chiropractic care: spinal manipulation and mobilization
plus exercise. That’s what new best practices guidelines
recommend. Surprised? Of course not! Your Carrolltown
chiropractor treats your spine, and you take care of
your spine! Together, your Carrolltown chiropractor and you the Carrolltown
back pain sufferer create a great spine care team. Gormish Chiropractic & Rehabilitation
is your local Carrolltown chiropractic care center where Carrolltown
back pain patients meet their Carrolltown chiropractor to set
a treatment plan to relieve pain as well as future back pain prevention plan.
A recent high-level research review reiterates
that spinal manipulation is safe
for older adults suffering with back pain. Gormish Chiropractic & Rehabilitation values
this confirmation! How did they do this? The systematic review of all published articles over a 7
year period updated current recommendations. Thirty-seven panelists participated
in this best practices guidelinesupdate and review. Conclusively, they agreed on current statements about the best practices
for chiropractic care of older adults with back
pain. They reinforced the current
statement about how safe spinal manipulation is
for these patients. The panel inserted
two supplementary notes of advice that
(1) chiropractors should suggest exercise to back pain patients who are older and (2)
manipulation and mobilization do more than just reduce
pain; they improve overall outcomes of care. (1) Gormish Chiropractic & Rehabilitation agrees!
Carrolltown chiropractic patients often look for
care that will reduce their back pain. Then, they find Carrolltown
chiropractic care that goes beyond just back pain relief. Chiropractic
incorporation of nutrition, exercise, and wellness care allows
them to welcome a healthier approach to life.
This chiropractic care starts with back pain
relief. The spinal manipulation method Gormish Chiropractic & Rehabilitation applies
is known as Cox Technic. In research studies about
this approach, it’s known that radiculopathy (leg
pain), chronic moderate/severe back pain and recurrent mild back pain (pain
than comes and goes) react better to
chiropractic Cox Technic than to medical conservative care. This study also demonstrated
that chronic/recurrent – back pain that returns several times a
year – responds better to exercise. (2) Gormish Chiropractic & Rehabilitation knows exercise is critical to manage
back pain and prevent future back pain. Gormish Chiropractic & Rehabilitation urges
all our Carrolltown chiropractic patients to help
themselves with exercise.
