Back pain is not picky. Back pain may
choose any of us at any time whether we’re
stay-at-home workers or out-in-the-world workers, active
military folks or veterans. Chiropractic’s
reputation for helping back pain sufferers persists
and grows in the civilian and veteran/military
care systems. The newer curiosity has been how
much chiropractic care is optimal for back pain relief.
The Novelli Wellness Center follows this research since
military/veteran back pain resembles our civilian
Buffalo, NY back pain!
BACK PAIN INCIDENCE
80% of us will get back pain at some time
in our lives, in our youth, middle years, or old age. 264 million
work days were documented to be lost in one year because of back pain. (1) Buffalo, NY chiropractic care is created
to help all ages! Somewhere between 25 and 33% of older folks reportedly
experience low back pain annually. Low back pain for older adults is described
as being debilitating as it often limits their
independence and increases the number of doctor visits they
have. A study that combined chiropractic and primary care for their back pain resulted in modest improvements in their back
pain and disability and higher patient satisfaction and perceived
improvement over primary care only. (2)
The Novelli Wellness Center witnesses these same outcomes for our
Buffalo, NY back pain patients! Older patients with chronic low back
pain along with other medical issues who used
only chiropractic spinal manipulation for their back pain had lower
overall costs of care, briefer occurrences of back
pain, and lower costs of care per back pain episode. (3) Back
pain relief in a briefer time at less expense…a triple
bonus with Buffalo, NY chiropractic care for
back pain sufferers!
BACK PAIN CARE WITH CHIROPRACTIC
Like the rest of us, military personnel and veterans
struggle with back pain and experience relief
with chiropractic care. Chiropractic is well-integrated into
the VA system for veterans with low back pain and other musculoskeletal
conditions. A newly proposed study of chiropractic care in
Veterans Affairs healthcare facilities for low back pain seeks
to see if low dose (one to 5 visits) or higher dose (eight to twelve visits) chiropractic care for 10 weeks is most beneficial
for chronic low back pain relief. (4) (The Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain
Management discovered in a study of 1000 back pain
patients that 12 visits and 29 days were the mean number of visits and days to get patients maximally improved. (5))
A similar finding was made when chiropractic care was added to usual medical care for active-duty military personnel with low back pain. Moderate short-term improvement in back pain intensity and disability was reported.
Multidisciplinary care of back pain that incorporates
chiropractic is suggested to be beneficial. (6) The goal
of Buffalo, NY chiropractic for back pain sufferers – civilian and
military alike – is back pain relief. The Novelli Wellness Center is prepared to deliver
that!
