BACK PAIN RELIEF RECOMMENDATIONS

Suggestions and recommendations run the gamut. Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. knows. Everyone from friends, family members, researchers, doctors, etc., have ideas and stories. In light of the inconsistency of back pain care recommendations, researchers suggest that the standardization of back pain care - exercise, spinal manipulation and opioid prescriptions – that may benefit back pain sufferers most favorably. (1) We concur. We examin the research and mix it with our clinical experience to develop a personalized treatment plan for our back pain patients. With the expected growth of low back pain through 2050 – from 619 million people globally to more than 800 million (2) – effective, research-documented, non-drug, non-surgical options for back pain are welcome, particularly ones that are tested and verified as being beneficial.  A a newly published paper regarding the care for one type of back pain - continued back pain after back surgery known as failed back surgery syndrome (FBSS) - that often develops into continued or increased opioid pain medication use.  The study found that FBSS patients treated with Cox® Flexion Distraction Decompression Manipulation experienced decreased or discontinued use of opioids during an initial 3-month course of treatment. (3) That’s an encouraging outcome of a treatment approach to include in the standardized back pain treatment recommendations!

SPECIFIC RECOMMENDATIONS

So what can our Auburn chiropractic patients do to limit their back pain and its impact on their lives? Sleep. Keep active. Get to their appointments for spinal manipulation. Feedback from 2333 back pain sufferers listed that more sleep, less sedentariness, and increased moderate to vigorous intensity physical activity was beneficial. The authors described an example of how swapping 30 minutes of sedentary behavior for 30 minutes of sleep decreased low back pain frequency odds by 5% and pain intensity by 2%. Sleep is vital! (4) So too is a visit to the Auburn chiropractor for spinal manipulation as recommended in the guidelines published by the American College of Physicians and The American Pain Society as having good evidence of effectiveness for low back pain along with exercise, CBT, and rehabilitation.
