Amelia Chiropractic Clinic Encourages Adding Mindfulness to Chiropractic Back Pain Care
Mind-body-SPINE connection. We hear much about the mind-body connection. Being a member of the chiropractic profession, Amelia Chiropractic Clinic inserts “spine” to this connection, making it much more specific to what we see in our Fernandina Beach back pain and neck pain patients. When the spine hurts, the mind and body cannot help but hurt, too. Amelia Chiropractic Clinic designs individualized Fernandina Beach chiropractic treatment plans for spine pain, back pain, neck pain and related arm and leg pain sufferers that incorporate chiropractic treatment, nutrition, and home exercise. The addition of mindfulness practices to these spine care practices is many times beneficial and encouraged.
MIND-BODY-SPINE PAIN
Spine pain, back pain, neck pain wears on a person. Pain often keeps a sufferer from accomplishing what he or she wants/needs to do and from experiencing a joyful life. When working with your Fernandina Beach chiropractor at Amelia Chiropractic Clinic on the physical pain relief, a back pain sufferer can take a mindful approach to dealing with the mind and its struggle with the pain and associated depression and/or varying levels of sadness is reported to be helpful. In a study of mindfulness-based therapy specifically for back pain sufferers with a lumbar disc herniation, researchers found that mindfulness-based treatment had a positive effect on pain beliefs and psychological well-being. (1) Additionally, researchers found that even in countries with well-developed and accessible mental health services, underutilization of those services is common. It is better than it once was with all the attention mental health has received lately. Many do not seek it out as they could. One interesting note about those who do seek help resulted from their knowing someone with a mental health issue which positively motivated them to seek help for their own issue. (2) Whether you know someone who suffers with a mental health issue or not, don’t avoid pursuing help with depression related to Fernandina Beach back pain. Today, there are numerous options to get support for pain-related depression. Amelia Chiropractic Clinic offers evidence-based treatment via the Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain Management to deal with the physical part of spine pain and encourages our Fernandina Beach back pain sufferers to consider utilizing a mindfulness practice to cope with the mind’s mental aspect of spine pain.
