Satterwhite Chiropractic Offers Spinal Manipulation for Back Pain Relief

April 25, 2017

Spinal manipulation for back pain relief is “it,” and Satterwhite Chiropractic has it. Spinal manipulation is popping up in ever more medical guidelines for back pain relief. Medical care guidelines are recommending spinal manipulation as a conservative, non-drug way to relieve back pain, expressly in the wave of the opioid epidemic that often starts with medications for back pain control. Today, spinal manipulation is “it”! Satterwhite Chiropractic delivers Oxford spinal manipulation in a safe, gentle, relieving way with chiropractic Cox Technic Flexion Distraction Spinal Manipulation.

Non-Drug Care First for Back Pain

The latest medical back pain care guidelines published embrace those from the American College of Physicians (internists). Published in the Annals of Internal Medicine, these guidelines define three types of back pain: acute/subacute, chronic, and non-responsive. For the acute/subacute/chronic back pain patients, spinal manipulation is a treatment method recommendation. (1) It’s non-invasive and non-pharmacological. Satterwhite Chiropractic adds that it’s effective! It’s evidence-based.

The Journal of the American Medical Association released an article sanctioning spinal manipulation.  One is a review of published randomized clinical trials. (Satterwhite Chiropractic notes that these review studies are high level research!) This review focuses on acute low back pain (pain that persists for up to 6 weeks). It states that spinal manipulation exhibits modest improvement in pain and function with no adverse effects. (2) In contrast to recent reports of the opioid epidemic and the danger of oral steroids (3), no adverse effects is big! Oxford back pain sufferers have hope! The other is an editorial comment by a prominent medical doctor, Richard Deyo MD, who concurs that spinal manipulation for acute low back pain is appropriate and delivers at least equal if not better results than conventional medical care (drugs, rest, etc.). (4) Satterwhite Chiropractic mentions that Oxford chiropractic care with Cox Technic is evidence-based and gentle and safe.

What Care Is Offered 

Medicine knows that back pain is prevalent and life-altering. Drugs are short term help that may turn into long term concern. Surgery is proper for some back pain sufferers whose conditions necessitate it – progressive neurological deficit and/or cauda equina syndrome among others in most cases. Luckily, most Oxford back pain does not require such intervention and can be cared for conservatively.
