Fernandina Beach Depression due to Back Pain Helped with Cox® Technic
The mind-body connection. It’s real. And in few other conditions is it more real than in spine-related pain conditions. The spine is the body’s support system. When it hurts, the body knows it. Amelia Chiropractic Clinic knows it, also. Fernandina Beach back pain and neck pain and spine-related pain patients know it, too. The chiropractic treatment plan at our office for spine-related pain effectively relieves both body and mind pain to allow our patients to find an enjoyable quality of life. Back pain’s depression often is relieved with our Cox® Technic System of decompression.
MIND AND BODY: DEPRESSION IN BACK PAIN PATIENTS
Leading causes of disability globally incorporate musculoskeletal diseases and mental disorders like anxiety and depression. A study of patients with lumbar spondylolisthesis demonstrated how anxiety and depression influence a person’s well-being. Emotional distress and disability that patients experience negatively affects their overall well-being. (1) A new review of medical studies links these two issues, too. Anxiety and cervical/lumbar disc herniation, mood/anxiety and lower bone mineral density in men, chronic low back pain and depression, life satisfaction improvement and bone loss prevention in postmenopausal women, quality of life decline and multiple osteoporotic fractures. Adults over 45 years of age with musculoskeletal diseases mentally wrestle with the impact these matters have on their lifestyle. (2) That’s where chiropractic care comes into play. Amelia Chiropractic Clinic offers evidence-based chiropractic care with the Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain Management to alleviate pain and give control of it in the hands of our Fernandina Beach patients. There is hope. There is life during and after treatment. Amelia Chiropractic Clinic is ready for our Fernandina Beach back pain patients every step of the way. Taking anti-depressants – anti-cholinergic drugs - may not be the answer for depressed patients. They are shown to raise the risk of dementia with long-term use. These drugs stop the neurotransmitter acetylcholine in the central and peripheral nervous system. (3) We all need clear minds to deal with life with and without back pain.
THE DEPRESSION AND ANXIETY OF BACK PAIN
Depression and anxiety are states of mind most everyone contends with at some point in life. For chronic low back pain patients, depression and anxiety often go together with their pain experience. Logically, higher levels of depression often result from more pain and a lower sense of personal control of pain and overall health. More anxiety often extends from deeper beliefs about negative effects of illness, negative emotional thoughts of the illness, and depression. These conclusions support the need for more honest advising of chronic back pain patients. (4) You can trust Amelia Chiropractic Clinic to be honest!
HELP FOR DEPRESSION: Fernandina Beach CHIROPRACTIC CARE
Help for back pain depression is built into the chiropractic treatment plan, especially exercise. Exercise is valuable for the body. That is a known fact. Is exercise good for the mind? For those of us dealing with chronic low back pain – Fernandina Beach chiropractic patients and your Fernandina Beach chiropractor – the more exact curiosity is whether exercise is good for chronic low back pain patients’ minds. A new study reports that symptoms of depression were reduced in such adults who used exercise (low dose) and manual therapy and/or general strengthening and moderate exercise. (5) Neither came out ahead of the other. Both showed promise in reducing depression. That’s good news. Amelia Chiropractic Clinic makes sure that Fernandina Beach chiropractic patients know this and delivers safe, gentle, effective, pain-relieving treatment.
