DON’T FEAR! BE CONFIDENT WITH YOUR SPINE.
Chiropractors see it every day. Oxford back pain patients avoid
lifting or worry about using their spines for things
like lifting out of fear of (re)injury and pain. Researchers report that chronic
low back pain patients tend to protect their spines by lifting
using a diminished lumbar spine range of motion. Doing
this for a long stretch of time may end up hurting more than
helping. The lumbar spine tissues may encounter extra
loading because of altered spine motion. (1) Fear-avoidance is a pretty
normal reaction in back pain patients. Do not
feel weird if you do this for some time! Within our
Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain
Management, we guide our back pain patients to return
to normal spinal motions gradually as their pain lowers
and their exercise routine strengthens their spines via Oxford chiropractic
treatment, exercise, and nutrition. Satterwhite Chiropractic and you will get there
together! Satterwhite Chiropractic is your partner in controlling back pain, so it does
not control you.
Listen to this PODCAST
with Dr. Clint Dickason on The
Back Doctors Podcast with Dr. Michael Johnson as he explains
his care of a nurse with back pain and sciatic leg pain using the Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain
Management to help her get back to doing normal motions of daily life and her job, like bending, lifting and
twisting.
Oxford CHIROPRACTIC TIP OF THE MONTH: CURCUMIN FOR CHRONIC PAIN RELIEF AND
IMPROVED COGNITION
Cognitive impairment is observed
in patients with chronic neuropathic pain. A new study on the
effects of curcumin reports improvement in cognitive impairment
and reduction of chronic pain due to compressed
sciatic nerves in rats. Curcumin is said to alleviate
chronic constriction injury related behaviors and memory deficits by lowering
inflammatory cytokines. (2) Sciatica
is irritation of the sciatic nerve causing leg pain. If
you have sciatica, do you notice issues with cognition? Curcumin’s
anti-inflammatory properties are something to be considered
in the nutritional approach to chronic pain and Oxford sciatic leg
pain. Satterwhite Chiropractic does!
