The WORLDWIDE Role of Chiropractic for Back
Pain
Now is the time for chiropractic!
Soft Health and Healing Clinic is excited to offer chiropractic services in
Brooks and be a part of this time in healthcare. Lancet, one of the foremost
medical journals, published a series of pieces
on the sad state that healthcare
systems around the globe are managing low back pain. Back pain is a huge issue everywhere and
growing worse. And chiropractic is “perfectly placed to be a
major player in providing a part of the solution to the global challenge of low
back” as long as its providers follow guidelines (like your chiropractor strives to do!) to
not order excessive x-rays, stick to evidence-based
care clinical practice guidelines, and keep well-informed
of the most recent research (and even taking part
in research when able!). Chiropractic is known
for its reputation in caring for back pain. It needs to find its way into mainstream
healthcare to relieve more back pain and neck pain
sufferers non-pharmacologically and non-surgically. (1) The World Federation of
Chiropractic is creating27 toolkits for chiropractors to participate more with public health communities and be of greater
service to patients and communities inside
the health system as respected partners for their health
and well-being. (2) Your Brooks chiropractor at Soft Health and Healing Clinic appreciates this support and foreshight
from a world chiropractic organization as that is just what this Brooks
chiropractic practice of Soft Health and Healing Clinic plans to do here in
Brooks.
Listen in to this PODCAST
with Dr. Christophe Dean on The
Back Doctors Podcast with Dr. Michael Johnson about how he incorporates
Cox® Technic into his Brooks patient care to help relieve
back pain.
TIP OF THE MONTH: Wear a Back Support
Low back pain patients at Soft Health and Healing Clinic may benefit
from wearing a lumbar support belt. New research shows
that a lumbar support belt does not certainly
cause muscle weakness but rather increases
walking distance ability for spinal stenosis patients with
intermittent claudication, reduces pain and fear of pain,
reduces use of pain medications, and fosters
muscle strength, flexibility, and activities of daily living. (3-10) Great benefits! Your chiropractor cautiously considers
when and if to recommend back braces for each individual Brooks
back pain patient as he or she heals with Brooks
chiropractic care, knowing the advantages
back braces may provide along the way.
