Healthy News April 2023 Choosing the Back Pain Care Option for You and Adding Turmeric for Anti-Inflammatory Help
“Supermarkets” are great for food shopping but not necessarily for finding relief of Fernandina Beach back pain, grasping the basis of back pain, nor getting up in the morning without pain and welcoming the day. A new back pain sufferer may well get lost in today’s “supermarket” of healthcare options. Researchers came up with this comparison of back pain care options to goods on shelves in a supermarket as they witnessed this at their meetings where the latest in back pain care options were excitedly presented next to each other with each approach’s supporters sharing their outcomes (some with solid, accurately presented research evidence, some without).

Listen to this PODCAST with Dr. Kurt Olding on The Back Doctors Podcast with Dr. Michael Johnson as he describes both The Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain Management as well as the healthcare path for back pain relief that is often perplexing and non-congruent with current suggestions for the non-surgical, conservative care of back pain.
Turmeric (curcuma longa L.) is a plant well-known for its anti-inflammatory properties due to its polyphenolic curcuminoids. In a scoping review of published papers, researchers concluded that current evidence is great that suggests clinical benefit from supplementing turmeric for its anti-inflammatory benefits, especially in inflammation-linked diseases like obesity-related metabolic disorders or musculoskeletal disorders (like back and neck pain).

In the interim, Amelia Chiropractic Clinic and you can have a conversation about how turmeric’s addition to your nutrition plan may benefit your pain relief and healing.
