ADDING Richmond CHIROPRACTIC CARE
At one health center that integrated
chiropractic care into their services, a chronic pain patient with a long history of pain reported relief
when chiropractic care was added to her overall care approach. Most
recently, she experienced neck and back pain after a car
accident 3 years earlier. Additionally, she
had knee pain and pain due to over 20 surgeries in her life,
depression, opioid dependence, and low quality of life. After
6 months of chiropractic care which included manipulation
for neck and back pain as well as nutrition and exercise suggestions,
she stated improvement in pain and quality of life along
with discontinuation of opioid pain
medications. (2) Johnson Chiropractic uses the Cox Technic system of spine pain management with its comprehensive treatment plan inclusive of nutrition and exercise to enhance the odds of our Richmond chiropractic patients' recovery. Johnson Chiropractic enjoys witnessing
Richmond chiropractic patients’ joy when this happens.
GETTING Richmond CHIROPRACTIC CARE REGULARLY
Though third-party payers want to restrict
coverage for chiropractic care, seeing a chiropractor on an on-going basis for “maintenance care” is effective.
A new study compared patients who got chiropractic care
for annoying low back pain more often to those who received chiropractic care just when
symptoms appeared. Chiropractic care on a regular
basis was more effective in lessening the overall
number of days annually that patients
experienced troubling low back pain. Yes,
these patients had more chiropractic appointments, but
they reported less back pain. The researchers suggested
that maintenance care be taken into consideration a low back
pain prevention option. (3) Johnson Chiropractic is here to partner with any Richmond
back pain or neck pain patient seeking less
pain and improved quality of life.
