September 2020 Healthy News from Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C.: Cox Technic Relieves Back Pain due to Disc Extrusion with Spondylolytic Spondylolisthesis and Eat an Apple!

Extruded discs alone are painful and many times considered surgical issues. Spondylolytic spondylolisthesis alone is a disabling, painful condition and many times thought to be a surgical issue needing fusion. Bring these two conditions together in in one patient and the Auburn chiropractic patient and the treating physician like your Auburn chiropractor face a challenge that demands gentle, experienced care. A recently published case report of a patient with an extruded disc – one that has escaped its outer bands and entered into the spinal canal space – and spondylolytic spondylolisthesis – involving separation of the pars interarticularis – described how just 9 visits in 4 weeks resulted in pain relief. The patient who rated his pain a 9 out of 10 (a 10 being the worst pain) on visit 1 rated it 0 out of 10 on visit 9. Follow-up at 10 years revealed that the patient demonstrated no orthopedic or neurological issues and reported no recurrence of the original symptoms. (1) What was the treatment plan?

Auburn CHIROPRACTIC TIP OF THE MONTH:

Delight in This Apple Season!

Feed the gut. Lose some weight and raise your bone density to improve your spine. Lower your risk of diabetes and heart disease. Protect the brain. How? Eat an apple! Apples are amazingly healthy! They have hardly any calories, good pre-biotic pectin that feeds the good gut bacteria, lots of fiber and water to fill you up, lots of antioxidant polyphenols in the peel, acetylcholine-level-preserving factors to protect the brain, and flavonoids that may lower blood pressure, cholesterol, and stroke risk. (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8) Apples round out a healthy chiropractic approach to life!
