Continued Fernandina Beach Chiropractic Care Helps Back Pain Management

Regular Fernandina Beach chiropractic care. A good idea? Yes! Consider other good regular care ideas: Endocrinologists recommend that diabetics regularly check their blood sugars. Dentists recommend regular teeth cleanings a couple times annually to keep plaque at bay. Cardiologists at the American Heart Association recommend doing at least 150 minutes of moderate-to-vigorous aerobic physical activity each week to have an impact on heart health. Health experts recommend regular daily exercise for 30 minutes a day five days a week to keep the body in tune.  Nutritionists recommend proper food intake a day: fruits, veggies, proteins, fats, etc., to feed the body properly. Spinal manipulation for back pain relief is recommended by the American College of Physicians, American Pain Society, and the American Medical Association. (1,2) Chiropractors recommend spinal manipulation treatments regularly, too, not necessarily every day once the pain is under control, but on a regular schedule to prevent spine pain – back pain, neck pain, arm pain, leg pain. Amelia Chiropractic Clinic treats many Fernandina Beach chiropractic patients on a regular basis, Fernandina Beach chiropractic patients who choose such care to keep their spines as healthy and pain-free as possible.

BACK PAIN STATS

80% of us humans will have no less than one episode of back pain in our lifetime. One in 3 of us has back pain right now. Back pain comes and goes, not typically disappearing forever, depending on activities. Amelia Chiropractic Clinic often advises patients that the current episode of back pain is gaining your attention for a reason. If for no other reason, it is asking for care. It won’t be ignored. Your spine will value an effective treatment plan to get rid of the pain as well as a plan to keep it mobile and healthy.

CONTINUED CARE BENEFITS

That’s where regular chiropractic care comes into play. Certainly our Fernandina Beach chiropractic patients know that chiropractic care lessens back pain and neck pain and related extremity pain like arm and leg pain. They also understand that they don’t want to suffer with such pain again! While there is no guarantee that back pain or neck pain will not come back, preventing pain and/or its return to as mild as possible is a worthwhile goal as is a goal to be able to do daily activities as pain free and worry free as possible. A recent study titled the Nordic Maintenance Care Program reported that such chiropractic maintenance care decreased the number of days of bothersome pain that limited activities and boosted the number of pain free weeks between episodes. These outcomes may well facilitate patients’ and doctors’ realistically temper their expectations of care. Maintenance care is not a cure, doesn’t avert new episodes necessarily, but it is a plan to reduce life-routine disrupting pain for back pain sufferers with recurrent and persistent low back pain.

Listen to this PODCAST with Dr. Joel Dixon  on The Back Doctors Podcast with Dr. Michael Johnson as he shares how 20 years of maintenance care helped his veteran patient control his back pain so that he could live his life the way he wants to live it.
