Satterwhite Chiropractics September 2017 Healthy Newsletter

Research documents that those who take advantage of rehab4 after back disc surgery experience more favorable treatment outcomes in the year following the back surgery. They return to work. (1) Some back surgery patients don’t undergo rehabilitation by their own decision or by not being directed to do so. For those who have continued pain after back surgery (also referred to as “failed back surgical syndrome”), Oxford chiropractic Cox Technic spinal manipulation care may help ease the pain without another surgical intervention. A study of 69 post-surgical continued pain patients seeing a chiropractor using Cox Technic documents that 81% of these patients achieved greater than 50% pain relief in 11 visits over a 49-day period of active care. (2) That can be sufficient relief to allow these patients to enjoy their lives again! If you, a loved one or a friend did not do any rehab work after back surgery and/or are feeling back pain post-back surgery, Satterwhite Chiropractic can help with gentle, research-documented, Oxford chiropractic care and treatment.

Exercise is good for the nutrition of your spinal discs! The discs are comprised of glycosaminoglycans which are made chondroitin sulfate, dermatan sulfate, glucosamine sulfate. Researchers explain that physical exercise does not reduce glycosaminoglycans; exercise enhances their concentration even in overtraining situations. (3) Plus doing some muscle strengthening activities twice a week lowers your odds of low back pain. (4) Talk with Satterwhite Chiropractic about chondroitin sulfate supplementation and exercise as additions to your Oxford chiropractic treatment plan for your disc’s health and healing!
