Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. Helps Back Pain Patients Manage Their Back Pain
Chiropractic’s goal is to provide the back pain patient a sense of control over the back pain and to live through the pain while not avoiding life. That’s also the goal of your Auburn chiropractor: gentle, pain-relieving, conservative care of spine pain. It’s a partnership involving the Auburn back pain sufferer, the back pain care giver, and even the back pain payer (ie Medicare).
CHIROPRACTIC ENTHUSIASM FOR THE ROLE OF BACK PAIN PROVIDER
Being a chiropractor is amazing! A new survey found that chiropractors like yours at Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. relish their profession most as they are capable to decrease pain and build strength, flexibility, and power with their patients via a comprehensive treatment plan. Two of the top features of being a chiropractor were reported as “being trained to diagnose” – the foundation for quality care and desirable clinical outcomes! - and “being able to transform peoples’ quality of life.” (1) Your Auburn chiropractor concurs! Being your healthcare partner - your back pain specialist - particularly in managing spine pain issues is a highlight of daily practice.
EFFECT OF HEALTHCARE PROVIDER AVAILABILITY: MD/Surgeon, DC, PCP
Researchers questioned how a community’s healthcare workforce influenced the care of low back pain sufferers. They found that one new spine surgeon increased non-conservative care episodes by 31.3 per 1000 older adults, the increase of one primary care physician reduced 2.5 conservative care episodes per 1000 mature adults, and the addition of one chiropractor increased 18.7 conservative care episodes and subtracted 3.6 non-conservative care episodes per 1000 older adults. The researchers admit certain limitations in their study as they pulled a certain set of patients from the 16 million Medicare Part B enrollees (who had at least one occurrence of low back pain and relocation) which left 402,372 persons in the analysis set. (2) In the Medicare population, healthcare provider availability influences how much is spent on each beneficiary. The effect is transformed by provider type and whether the provider availability increases or decreases. Spine surgeon availability was most strongly associated with increased spending. The loss of one spine surgeon in a community decreased spending. (3) In Auburn, back pain sufferers get a partner at Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. who can guide them with in-office care as well as at-home self-care.
EFFECT OF BACK PAIN PATIENT SELF CARE
Medicine is realizing that the one who is truly at the center of managing pain and chronic disorders is the person dealing with pain and chronic disorder. When back pain happens to be the chronic issue, the low back pain sufferer self-manages most of the time anyway and desires suggestions regarding how best to do that: when to request more care (symptoms, imaging, advice), how to handle pain (behavioral changes to handle and prevent pain), and how to be assured of their independent pain management’s effectiveness. These all take guidance from clinicians regarding education about the condition and the collaboration of the patient and the healthcare provider.
