Before undergoing back surgery, Oxford back pain
sufferers can benefit
from pre-back surgery chiropractic care and exercise. Research keeps documenting the usefulness
of non-surgical treatment for back pain relief. InOxford Satterwhite Chiropractic
is the chiropractic care clinic for both!
CHIROPRACTIC SPINAL MANIPULATION BEFORE BACK SURGERY
Self-care is frequently proposed
as initial treatment for back pain patients. If that does
not produce the desired results, adding non-drug
therapy for acute low back pain – spinal manipulation – and for chronic or subacute
back pain – spinal manipulation, intensive interdisciplinary rehab, exercise,
acupuncture, massage, yoga, cognitive behavioral therapy - is suggested
by medical physician groups like the American College of Physicians
and American Pain Society. (1) Satterwhite Chiropractic uses
a gentle, evidence-based spinal manipulation treatment known
as Cox® Technic to relieve back pain that may well help
Oxford back pain sufferers evade back
surgery and control their back pain more independently.
EXERCISE FOR BACK PAIN RELIEF
Back pain sufferers want to help themselves
as much as possible. Satterwhite Chiropractic knows this. Exercise is documented
to be advantageous for non-surgical
pain relief for patients with spinal stenosis. (2) The right form
of exercise is key, so we’ll talk
about what is proper for you! Maybe
Pilates would be your exercise of choice. A study of chronic
musculoskeletal pain patients who undertook a Pilates-based
exercise program discovered that the pain patients better functioned
and coped with their pain condition more independently
and efficiently. They did better at work, took
pleasure in hobbies more, were motivated to keep exercising,
did more to make do with their own pain conditions without
outside help. These, in turn, motivated them to enjoy
a healthier way of life. (3) These benefits came
without back surgery.
EXERCISE BEFORE BACK SURGERY
Researchers set up a trial of exercise for
back pain patients headed to back surgery. They explained
the back pain condition to the patients carefully. They set
up exercise programs for each patient to perform. They
found that back pain patients who experienced
this pre-surgery program of description and exercise gained
benefit in several ways: The back pain sufferers noticed improvement
exercising than being inactive while waiting for surgery. The back pain
sufferers’ disposition improved as they exercised. They had time to mull
over their treatment and lifestyle options. Even patients who didn’t
describe symptom improvement reacted well to this
program as they thought themselves more confident in being able to
do some self-management of their pain. (4)
These are all positive outcomes Oxford back pain
patients discover in their chiropractic care at Satterwhite Chiropractic.
Control not cure is a realistic goal when coping
with back pain.
