When I check into a hotel for a conference, the conversation
often goes like this:
Front desk staff: “So what are you here for?”
Me: “I’m a chiropractor from Auburn attending a
meeting.”
Front desk staff: “Oh! My neck is
killing me!”
Your Auburn chiropractor welcomes
this and could talk back pain and neck pain all day long!
Auburn chiropractic patients at Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. know this for sure. Your Auburn chiropractor accepts
the reputation as the Auburn back pain specialist.
Being a primary spine practitioner is so stimulating and inviting!
Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. understands back pain and neck pain, is a specialty
clinic for spine pain patients, and is not shy
in the least about telling everyone in
Auburn.
BEING THE PRIMARY SPINE PRACTITIONER
You’ve heard of the Gallup Poll. A consultant
for Gallup partnered with the Palmer College of Chiropractic for
a study that found that 78% of American adults would prefer
to use a non-drug option over a prescription medication to cope with
pain like low back or neck pain. Those same adults believed
physical therapy and chiropractic care as quite effective and safe
when compared to pain meds. Aaron Carroll MD writes for the New York Times, and
in a blog post called “For Bad Backs, It’s Time to Rethink Biases about
Chiropractors,” he stressed how bad the opioid crisis is in
the US and that evidence-based non-drug methods like
spinal manipulation are practical
alternatives. (1) Chiropractic identity researchers concluded
that chiropractic is viewed by society as a profession of health
care providers who are specialists in spine care as their
education, scope of practice, and educational accrediting and testing revolve
around spine care. (2) In one study 61.4% of US adults believed
that chiropractic care successfully
relieved neck and back pain. 52.6% thought
chiropractors were trustworthy. (3) Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. gets
this. Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. grasps that Auburn back pain
and neck pain patients find relief with the
Auburn chiropractic care and then trust
Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. to lead them in other healthy approaches to
control their back pain conditions and improve their health and
spine to avert future adverse health and/or spinal
pain conditions.
BENEFITS OF PRIMARY SPINE PRACTITIONERS
Specially educated to care for patients with
spinal disease, primary spine practitioners play many responsibilities:
diagnose, rule out serious pathology (cancer, fracture, infection, etc.), present
evidence-based care like spinal manipulation, manual therapy, rehab/exercise,
education about the condition, counseling to help the back pain sufferer accept
the condition and its outcome expectations as well as commit to its treatment plan, and coordinate
all aspects of care (imaging, injections, surgery if/when
needed). (4) It’s a big job with plenty
of responsibility! It’s precisely the job
your Auburn chiropractor enjoys most! What do
Auburn back pain sufferers wants? Consumers desire
access to non-drug therapies provided by spine care
experts like chiropractors initially. Such access helps
in a few ways. One is increasing the value of
spine care delivery. Two is helping address the primary care
shortage. (1,5) Three is reducing the cost of care. (6) Four is
possibly reining in the opioid epidemic. The American
College of Physicians’ recommendations for back pain sufferers specifically say
that opioids are the last option behind non-pharmacological treatment options
like spinal manipulation, exercise, acupuncture, etc. (7) Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. is
here to do its part to help.
