Wouldn’t it be nice to take a
pill – or maybe better: a combination of pills! - and have your
Brooks back pain or neck pain fade away
right now? You are not alone! Soft Health and Healing Clinic can empathize.
Pain upsets our lives. Back pain prevents many
Brooks back pain sufferers from working and from playing and from
doing activities of daily living that must be done (dressing, cooking,
walking, doing laundry, etc.). When back pain bothers you or a loved one or friend, come to Soft Health and Healing Clinic for relief and chiropractic
advice regarding pain management without
drugs when or if drugs are not working or are not in
your treatment plan.
NOT CLEARLY SUPPORTED: DRUG COMBINATIONS
Having drugs in the treatment plan may be
successful for some back pain sufferers and not others. Pills may give
relief for a few hours, days, weeks, months or not at all.
A new Cochrane Review, one of the most highly respected
medical review systems in the world, reported that a drug combination,
though may be better for more pain relief, for low back pain and
sciatica is not supported. There is no clear evidence, as a matter of fact
there is a lack of studies and overall low quality of evidence,
that backs combining drugs for low back
pain and sciatica. Additionally, the risk of adverse effects is lower
with single drug therapy over a combination. (1) Have you experienced
a let-down from prescribed medications for your back pain? It is fine.
Soft Health and Healing Clinic works with back pain patients
like you.
RECOMMENDED: SPINAL MANIPULATION
Soft Health and Healing Clinic’s use of the Cox® Technic System of Spinal
Pain Management which integrates a specialized
type of spinal manipulation has helped countless
Brooks back pain sufferers find relief of their back pain. Spinal manipulation is recommended
as first line treatment of back pain by the American College of Physicians and the
American Board of Family Physicians. (2) Cox® Technic has been
shown in federally funded spinal research studies to drop
intradiscal pressures, widen the intervertebral canal area, and increase
disc height. (3,4) Clinical studies regarding Cox® Technic have revealed that back pain
relief comes in 29 days and 12 visits. Of course, more severe disc
herniations and spinal stenosis may take more time than these
averages, but relief happens. (5) For many back pain sufferers, 50%
relief would be most welcome. How about you?
RESEARCH SUPPORTED: CHONDROITIN SULFATE, TURMERIC AND CURCUMIN
To heighten the relief and help
our Brooks back pain patients, Soft Health and Healing Clinic incorporated
supplements into the Brooks chiropractic treatment plan. Natural
substances like spinal disc-supporting chondroitin sulfate – shown to have “genuine
anti-inflammatory properties (6) - and back pain-relieving turmeric and
curcumin come in handy in the short-term
as well as long term. Soft Health and Healing Clinic is ready to help you find
the right combination of treatment ways to reduce
your back pain.
