Older back pain patients benefit from combined chiropractic care: spinal manipulation and mobilization
plus exercise. That’s what new best practices guidelines
recommend. Surprised? Not likely! Your Richmond
chiropractor takes care of your spine, and you treat
your spine! Together, your Richmond chiropractor and you the Richmond
back pain sufferer form a great spine care team. Johnson Chiropractic
is your local Richmond chiropractic care center where Richmond
back pain patients meet their Richmond chiropractor to form
a treatment plan to relieve pain as well as future back pain prevention plan.
A new high-level research review reiterates
that spinal manipulation is a safe way to relieve back pain in older adults. Johnson Chiropractic appreciates
this verification! How did they do this? Researchers reviewed all published articles
from 7 years to update current recommendations. Thirty-seven panelists contributed to this best practices guidelinesupdate and review. In the end, they agreed on current statements regarding the best practices
for chiropractic care of older adults with back
pain. They reinforced the current
statement about how safe spinal manipulation is
for these patients. The panel added
two additional notes of advice that
(1) chiropractors should suggest exercise to these
older adult back pain patients and (2)
manipulation and mobilization do more than just reduce
pain; they improve overall outcomes of care. (1) Johnson Chiropractic agrees!
Richmond chiropractic patients often look for
care to eliminate
their back pain. Then, they find Richmond
chiropractic care that does more than just back pain relief. Chiropractic
incorporation of nutrition, exercise, and wellness care allows
them to embrace a healthier approach to life.
This chiropractic care starts with back pain
relief. The spinal manipulation method Johnson Chiropractic employs
is called Cox Technic. From the research studies about
this approach, it’s published that radiculopathy (leg
pain), chronic moderate/severe back pain and recurrent mild back pain (pain
than comes and goes) react better to
chiropractic Cox Technic than to medical conservative care. This study also documented
that chronic/recurrent – back pain that recurs several times a
year – reacts better to exercise. (2) Johnson Chiropractic knows exercise is important to control
back pain and prevent future back pain. Johnson Chiropractic encourages
all our Richmond chiropractic patients to help
themselves with exercise.
Schedule your Richmond chiropractic visit

relief and prevention in older adults with Richmond chiropractic care
