Have you noticed that if you see someone with a pin approach a
balloon, you flinch or cover your ears? You know there is a
noise coming. It’s similar with Auburn
back pain. If you expect your back to hurt, it often is. Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. cares for back pain
patients every day with that balloon-pop instinct for back pain’s
intensity. Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. works to help our Auburn
back pain patients feel back pain relief and find a
way to not expect their backs to hurt.
Auburn BACK PAIN PERCEPTION
Researchers write that perception of pain is influenced
by both the expectation of pain (or no pain) and the actual
sensation of pain. However, the greater the difference between the
expectation and the pain, the less the expectation of pain or no pain influences
the real experience of pain. (1) It's not
surprising, then, that back pain patients - those with spondylosis,
intervertebral disc disorders among others – have issues with
depression. (2) They expect a life without back pain, yet
they suffer with back pain. There’s a
disconnect between perception and reality. Caring for
Auburn back pain patients consists of not just treating
the source of back pain but its influences on the
whole person, mind and body.
Auburn BACK PAIN FEAR
Patients fear Auburn back pain. Patients want
a diagnosis, pain control and imaging (often despite what
the medical guidelines say). These perceived needs
patient by patients with back pain influence patient outcomes.
(3) Back pain specialists who understand these perceived needs can deal with
these needs, can discuss these needs and can explain
how these needs are being met with the Auburn chiropractic
treatment plan. Your chiropractor wants what is best for you
and your desired and deserved pain relief.
Auburn BACK PAIN RELIEF WITH SPINAL MANIPULATION
Luckily, spinal manipulation shows
itself worthy of use by Auburn back pain patients as research states
that it may reduce the expectation of pain, the fear of movement
and other associated brain responses that chronic low back pain
patients need. (As an aside, how were
these findings documented? With amazing new MRI
technology that examines brain function and blood
oxygen level signaling! Amazing!). (4)
Your Auburn chiropractor at Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. delivers
the gentlest form of spinal manipulation, Cox Technic, that itself
is amazing. Another research study reported that manipulation
and mobilization likely decrease pain and improve
function for chronic low back pain. Manipulation has a better
effect than mobilization. Both seemed to be safe interventions guiding
the researchers to propose that a multimodal treatment plan may be encouraging.
(5) Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. understands this to be true! Your treatment plan will involve a variety
of treatment tactics to help get you the relief you want.
