Oxford Back Pain and Spinal Stenosis and Osteoarthritis (Hip or Knee)

Osteoarthritis, knee or hip, may accompany low back pain for some folks. Lumbar spinal stenosis is a specific spinal condition that is growing as our population ages. Its symptoms often show up with other osteoarthritic conditions and stenosis symptoms. Satterwhite Chiropractic shares pain relieving Oxford chiropractic care for spine pain relief for spinal stenosis and other spine pain conditions.

THE COMBINATION: Back Pain and Osteoarthritis

New research reported that 15% of knee and 23% of knee osteoarthritic patients also had lumbar spinal stenosis symptoms. They both experienced improvements in knee or hip associated pain, function and quality of life when they underwent a patient education and exercise program. So what brings about relief for these patients? Research study after research study reports that exercise therapy likely enhances patient outcomes for patients with knee or hip osteoarthritis while no one kind is said to be better than the others. (1,2,3,4) Satterwhite Chiropractic includes spinal manipulation to boost the Oxford chiropractic care and clinical outcomes.

TREATMENT FOR BACK PAIN AND OSTEOARTHRITIS

Not startling to any of our current Oxford chiropractic patients, hands-on spinal manipulation is pivotal to our treatment plan. A study of conservative treatment of low back pain as a result of lumbar spinal stenosis reported that incorporating flexion distraction spinal manipulation produced a more significant decrease in pain and disability scores. (5) Another study using a Cox® flexion distraction influenced treatment of knee pain and osteoarthritis recorded a mean decrease in VAS (visual analog scale 0-10)-patient reported pain scores from 7.7 to 1.8 in 5.3 treatments in 3 weeks. This study documented clinical improvement for patients with knee pain. (6) Pain relief is our goal here at Satterwhite Chiropractic and is surely yours as well!
