A one-tract mind on back pain relief. Yes!
We chiropractors seem single-focused at times, don’t we? Spine
pain relief! Chiropractors study back
pain, neck pain, spine pain and its diagnosis and treatment to relieve
pain. Your Buffalo, NY chiropractor is very involved in helping our patients. A recent paper that highlighted
how chondroitin sulfate may benefit our diabetic osteoporotic patients
really got our attention! Nutrition and manipulation (and a little exercise!) go hand in hand for spine pain relief. Following
is the latest on chondroitin sulfate, B vitamins, and spine
nutritional health, all parts of the general
treatment plan for spine pain relief with the Cox® Technic System.
CHONDROITIN SULFATE
We’ve known a
lot about chondroitin sulfate’s benefit for disc cartilage for some time. Innovative research is demonstrating its ability to repair bone microstructure and alleviate
diabetic osteoporosis after 8- and 10-weeks of use. Granted,
the studies were performed with rats, but
the transfer of information is exciting. The
anti-oxidative, anti-inflammatory, and bone metabolism-regulating advantages
are guiding researchers to find dietary
interventions to help, too. Bone mineral density improvement was also found. (1) Chondroitin sulfate is a valuable
addition to the chiropractic nutritional treatment of Buffalo, NY back
pain.
B VITAMINS
And B vitamins, long recognized for
their advantages for immunity, nervous system, and more, are now
reported for their help for back pain and musculoskeletal
conditions. A combination of thiamine, pyridoxine, and
cyanocobalamin has pain-reducing effects due to
their neuropathic and nociceptive effects due to their
anti-inflammatory, anti-nociceptive, neuroprotective, and neuromodulatory action.
(2) Those are quite worthy benefits! Another study
presented how treatment
with NSAIDs and B vitamins proved effective for improving general
well-being and increasing in the quality of sleep by the 10th day of treatment observation of patients suffering
with acute lumbar dorsalgia (back pain). (3) Buffalo, NY chiropractic
care of back pain includes nutritional options
along with gentle spinal manipulation as outlined in the Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain
Management.
