Fernandina Beach Chiropractic Care Works for Those Who Have Access and Use It
Access and concordance. Agreement with the plan and access to the plan. These are the keys to optimal outcomes with chiropractic care. In Fernandina Beach, access to chiropractic is simple. Amelia Chiropractic Clinic welcomes back pain and neck pain sufferers to describe their pain symptoms openly to foster a pain relieving treatment plan which they will follow.
CONCORDANCE IS A BIG KEY TO BEST CLINICAL OUTCOMES
Chiropractic services for neck and back pain have been shown efficacious as many randomized clinical trials have been completed. Chiropractic services are accepted as effective for neck pain and back pain relief. A new study describes the satisfaction of patients who either adhere to the suggested treatment frequency guidelines or do not. Neck pain and back pain patients were said to be “concordant” (5 or more visits within any 2-month time period or at least 12 visits throughout the year) or “discordant” (not having 5 or more visits in a 2-month time frame or 12 visits in a year) and their characteristics were documented. Most chiropractic users with diagnosed neck or back pain were considered “discordant” with treatment frequency guidelines and their healthcare costs for chiropractic care were only $434 versus $2555 for “concordant” patients. Physical function issues played a role among other items for these patients. (1) Do not allow physical function make you discordant or hold you back from coming to your appointments! Make your visits. Amelia Chiropractic Clinic knows the treatment plan with the Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain Management that is most beneficial for your condition.

In Fernandina Beach, you have easy access to quality chiropractic care at Amelia Chiropractic Clinic.
ACCESS TO CHIROPRACTIC SERVICES
Older adults who do not have such access to chiropractic care are known to more frequently utilize some medical services for spine conditions. Medicare data of 39,278 chiropractic care users who moved geographically from an area which had more access to chiropractic care to an area with less access to revealed that these patients ended up experiencing more visits to primary care physicians for spine issues (an increase of 32.3 visits more a year) and were more likely to get spinal surgery (5.5 more surgeries per annum). Financially, this decreased access to chiropractic care for spine issues resulted in more expense to Medicare: an extra $114,967 per 1,000 beneficiaries on medical services (equaling $391 million nationally).

YOU AND YOUR INPUT MATTER
Sharing everything about your back pain experience with your Fernandina Beach chiropractor is crucial to your pain-relieving treatment plan. An Australian study of chiropractors found that chiropractors utilize patient documented outcome measures (PROMs) to guide the treatment plan and gauge the treatment response of lumbar spine pain patients.
