Chiropractic Care for Auburn Back Pain Advised by Harvard

December 17, 2017

Harvard Health Letter suggests chiropractic for disc herniation back pain.

As the saying goes: “When Harvard talks, people listen.” Ok, that’s a reworked version of the motto, but Harvard’s reputation does get people’s attention. In the November 2017 edition of the Harvard Health Letter, a lead report titled “Where to turn for low back pain relief. In most cases, a primary care doctor or chiropractor can help you resolve the problem.” discusses back pain and whom back pain sufferers ought to consult for help. The Harvard recommendation is a chiropractor (like your Auburn chiropractor at Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. or primary care doctor. Dr. Matthew Kowalski, a chiropractor on staff at Harvard’s Osher Clinical Center for Integrative Medicine at the Harvard-affiliated Brigham and Women’s Hospital, remarks that 35% to 42% of back pain sufferers turn to a chiropractor for their initial episode of back pain. (1) Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. agrees that many of the Auburn back pain sufferers coming for Auburn chiropractic care do so with a first episode of Auburn back pain.
 

CONTROL OF BACK PAIN

That first episode of Auburn back pain care is important as to how the first Auburn back pain episode goes as well as how future back pain episodes may be controlled. The goal, of course, would be to block all future Auburn back pain episodes, but that may not always be realistic. And that’s ok, too. There is control. Control of body motions like bending, lifting and twisting. Control of body muscle like exercising what there is (or is not of muscle!) to make it strong and flexible. Control of diet to reduce inflammatory consumption and improve the consumption of joint supporting nutrients. Control is key. Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. presents a well-rounded Auburn treatment plan that comprises these control factors once the current pain eases as Harvard’s newsletter points out, chiropractors like your Auburn chiropractor uses hands-on spinal manipulation (particularly Cox Technic at Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C.) and exercise, diet and stretching programs to alleviate back pain. It’s a whole-body approach!

CHIROPRACTIC MANAGEMENT OF CARE OPTIONS

The chiropractor as the first episode consultant knows back pain and the options appropriate to help. As Harvard’s Dr. Kowalski describes, the experienced chiropractor (and your Auburn chiropractor at Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. is!) will oversee your case. If the back pain sufferer should require another form of care, the chiropractor will arrange that care and appointment should that be with a neurologist, physiatrist, physical therapist, pain management doctor, or spinal surgeon. Chiropractors collaborate with all these of  healthcare specialists. For back sprains/strains and herniated discs, Harvard’s health newsletter exclaims that “a visit to your primary care physician or chiropractor may be all it takes to feel better.”
