Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. Helps Back Pain Patients Manage Their Back Pain

Chiropractic’s goal is to give the back pain sufferer a sense of control over the back pain and to live through the pain and not avoid life. That’s also the goal of your Auburn chiropractor: gentle, pain-relieving, conservative care of spine pain. It is 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 recent survey reported that chiropractors like yours at Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. enjoy their profession most as they are capable to reduce pain and increase strength, flexibility, and power with their patients through an inclusive treatment plan. Two of the top features of being a chiropractor were noted 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 agrees! Being your healthcare partner - your back pain specialist - particularly in managing spine pain issues is the best part of daily practice.

EFFECT OF HEALTHCARE PROVIDER AVAILABILITY: MD/Surgeon, DC, PCP

Researchers questioned how a community’s healthcare workforce impacted the care of low back pain sufferers. They discovered that one new spine surgeon added to the number of non-conservative care episodes by 31.3 per 1000 older adults, the addition of one primary care physician decreased 2.5 conservative care episodes per 1000 elder adults, and the addition of one chiropractor increased 18.7 conservative care episodes and subtracted 3.6 non-conservative care episodes per 1000 mature adults. The researchers state certain limitations in their study as they extracted a certain set of patients from the 16 million Medicare Part B enrollees (who had at least one episode of low back pain and relocation) which left 402,372 persons in the analysis set. (2) In the Medicare population, healthcare provider availability impacts how much is spent on each beneficiary. The effect is transformed by provider type and whether the provider availability rises or falls. Spine surgeon availability was most strongly linked with increased spending. The loss of one spine surgeon in a community reduced spending. (3) In Auburn, back pain sufferers get a partner at Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. who can help them with in-office care as well as at-home self-care.

EFFECT OF BACK PAIN PATIENT SELF CARE

Medicine is recognizing that the one who is truly at the center of managing pain and chronic disorders is the person experiencing pain and chronic disorder. When back pain is the chronic issue, the low back pain sufferer self-manages much of the time anyway and needs suggestions about how best to do that: when to pursue 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 support from clinicians along the lines of education about the condition and the collaboration of the patient and the healthcare provider. (4) Auburn back pain sufferers and their healthcare providers like your chiropractor at Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. need to communicate how each views back pain management to best reduce the pain!
