Auburn Chiropractic Care of Chronic Low Back Pain Can Help Reduce Cost & Pain

Chiropractic can help chronic low back pain in pain relief, healthcare coordination, and in cost-of-care reduction. Chiropractic care first aims to stop back pain from turning chronic, keeping it from continuing to last over 3 months. Chiropractic care offers spinal manipulation therapy which is documented to help alleviate chronic low back pain and enhance coordination of care with other health professionals to help our patients best. Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. helps the care of Auburn chronic back pain patients economically using gentle, safe, research-recorded protocols of the Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain Management. We’re here for you!

SPINAL MANIPULATION LOWERS COST OF BACK PAIN CARE

Back pain isn’t inexpensive. With the cost of spine pain in the US estimated to be $134.5 billion (1), Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. is fairly certain that our chiropractic patients would appreciate cost-effective care. A newer Canadian study of high-cost back pain patients in the healthcare system reported that they accounted for almost 50% of the healthcare spending in a year. (2) Another paper reported results revealing that spine-related pain patients who seek care from a chiropractor initially also experienced lower costs and healthcare services compared with medical management. (1) We know our Auburn chiropractic patients would appreciate coordination of care whenever possible among their healthcare providers to get the most economical and effective care.

HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS WORKING TOGETHER

Healthcare professionals working together benefit patients dealing with Auburn back and other spine pain conditions. A study in South Africa analyzed the relationship and understanding of each other’s professions between chiropractors and physiotherapists. Interesting outcomes! Each profession assessed the other’s in terms of what conditions it treated, what modalities it utilized, how well each did at treating neuromusculoskeletal conditions. Interprofessional referrals for chiropractors were 82% and 55% for physiotherapists though 69% of chiropractors and 55% of physiotherapists wanted to collaborate in managing patients for their pain relief. (3) We healthcare providers strive to keep our patients in the center of  a treatment plan to lower their pain and healthcare usage.

SMT REDUCES PAIN OF BACK PAIN

For chronic low back pain patients, those whose pain lasts over 3 months that leads to emotional distress and physical disability and more healthcare utilization, 12 sessions of spinal manipulation delivered greater pain relief than a control intervention.  (4) Another study of 1000 low back pain sufferers treated with Cox® Technic flexion distraction protocols also showed that a mean of 12 visits in 29 days produced maximum clinical improvement. Plus, less than 9% of the low back pain patients continued to the chronic phase. (5) Chronic pain prevention is a worthy effort!
