Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C.s September 2017 Healthy Newsletter

Research states that those who go through rehabilitation after back disc surgery find themselves with better treatment outcomes in the year following the back surgery. They go back to work. (1) Some back surgery patients do not undergo rehabilitation by choice or by not being told to do so. For those who face continued pain after back surgery (also referred to as “failed back surgical syndrome”), Auburn chiropractic Cox Technic spinal manipulation care may help relieve the pain without further surgery. A study of 69 post-surgical continued pain patients visiting a chiropractor using Cox Technic finds that 81% of these patients acquired greater than 50% pain relief in 11 visits over a 49-day period of active care. (2) That can be enough relief to get these patients to enjoy their lives again! If you, a loved one or a friend didn’t do any rehabilitation after back surgery and/or are experiencing back pain post-back surgery, Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. can help with gentle, research-documented, Auburn chiropractic care and treatment.

Exercise is good for the nutritional state of your spinal discs! The discs are comprised of glycosaminoglycans which are comprised of chondroitin sulfate, dermatan sulfate, glucosamine sulfate. Researchers describe that physical exercise doesn’t reduce glycosaminoglycans; exercise increases their concentration even in overtraining situations. (3) Plus doing some muscle strengthening activities twice a week lowers your chances of low back pain. (4) Talk with Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. about chondroitin sulfate supplementation and exercise as additions to your Auburn chiropractic treatment plan for your disc’s health and healing!
