BACK PAIN RELIEF RECOMMENDATIONS

They run the gamut. Satterwhite Chiropractic knows. Everyone from friends, family members, researchers, doctors, etc., have ideas and stories. In light of the variability of back pain care recommendations, researchers propose that the standardization of care for back pain - exercise, spinal manipulation and opioid prescriptions – that may benefit back pain sufferers most. (1) We concur. We review the research and mix it with our clinical experience to develop a personalized treatment plan for our back pain patients. With the predicted growth of low back pain through 2050 – from 619 million people globally to more than 800 million (2) – effective, research-documented, non-drug, non-surgical choices for back pain are welcome, especially ones that are tried and documented as beneficial.  A a newly published paper regarding the care for one type of back pain - continued back pain after back surgery also called failed back surgery syndrome (FBSS) - that often develops into continued or increased opioid pain medication use.  The study reported that FBSS patients treated with Cox® Flexion Distraction Decompression Manipulation described decreased or discontinued use of opioids in the course of an initial 3-month course of treatment. (3) That’s an encouraging outcome of a treatment approach to include in the standardized back pain treatment recommendations!

SPECIFIC RECOMMENDATIONS

So what can our Oxford chiropractic patients do to control their back pain and its impact on their lives? Sleep. Keep active. Undergo spinal manipulation. Feedback from 2333 back pain sufferers noted that more sleep, less sedentariness, and more moderate to vigorous intensity physical activity was beneficial. The authors shared an example of how swapping 30 minutes of sedentary behavior for 30 minutes of sleep lessened low back pain frequency odds by 5% and pain intensity by 2%. Sleep is important! (4) So too is a visit to the Oxford chiropractor for spinal manipulation as recommended in the guidelines published by the American College of Physicians and The American Pain Society as having good evidence of effectiveness for low back pain along with exercise, CBT, and rehabilitation. (5) Satterwhite Chiropractic is experienced in delivering gentle, safe spinal manipulation via Cox® Technic protocols, designing an easy exercise plan, and recommending therapy and/or more advance rehab as necessary or desired. Trust us to help! Our Oxford back pain patients are in good hands.
