Fort Wayne Depression due to Back Pain Helped with Cox® Technic
The mind-body connection. It’s real. And in no other condition than one related to the spine is this more real. The spine is the body’s support system. When it hurts, the body knows it. Aaron Chiropractic Clinic knows it, also. Fort Wayne back pain and neck pain and spine-related pain patients know it, too. The chiropractic treatment plan at our office for spine-related pain effectively soothes both body and mind pain to let our patients discover an enjoyable quality of life. Back pain’s depression often is lessened with our Cox® Technic System of decompression.
MIND AND BODY: DEPRESSION IN BACK PAIN PATIENTS
Top causes of disability globally incorporate musculoskeletal diseases and mental disorders like anxiety and depression. A report of patients with lumbar spondylolisthesis exemplified how anxiety and depression affect a person’s well-being. Emotional distress and disability that patients experience negatively impacts their overall well-being. (1) A new review of medical studies links these two concerns, too. Anxiety and cervical/lumbar disc herniation, mood/anxiety and lower bone mineral density in men, chronic low back pain and depression, life satisfaction improvement and bone loss prevention in postmenopausal women, quality of life decline and multiple osteoporotic fractures. Adults over 45 old with musculoskeletal diseases mentally struggle with the impact these matters have on their lifestyle. (2) That’s where chiropractic care comes into play. Aaron Chiropractic Clinic offers evidence-based chiropractic care in the form of the Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain Management to alleviate pain and give control of it in the hands of our Fort Wayne patients. There is hope. There is life during and after treatment. Aaron Chiropractic Clinic is here for our Fort Wayne back pain patients all along the way. Taking anti-depressants – anti-cholinergic drugs - may not be the answer for depressed patients. They are shown to increase the risk of dementia with long-term use. These drugs block the neurotransmitter acetylcholine in the central and peripheral nervous system. (3) We all need clear minds to deal with life with and without back pain.
THE DEPRESSION AND ANXIETY OF BACK PAIN
Depression and anxiety are states of mind most of us contend with at some point in life. For chronic low back pain patients, depression and anxiety often go together with their pain experience. Logically, higher levels of depression often result from more pain and a lower sense of personal control of pain and overall health. More anxiety often comes from deeper beliefs about negative consequences of illness, negative emotional views of the illness, and depression. These findings support the need for more honest advising of chronic back pain patients. (4) You can trust Aaron Chiropractic Clinic to be honest!
HELP FOR DEPRESSION: Fort Wayne CHIROPRACTIC CARE
Help for back pain depression is built into the chiropractic treatment plan, especially exercise. Exercise is good for the body. That is an accepted fact. Is exercise good for the mind? For those of us dealing with chronic low back pain – Fort Wayne chiropractic patients and your Fort Wayne chiropractor – the more specific curiosity is whether exercise is good for chronic low back pain patients’ minds. A new study states that symptoms of depression were decreased in such adults who did exercise (low dose) and manual therapy and/or general strengthening and moderate exercise. (5) Neither came out ahead of the other. Both indicated promise in lessening depression. That’s good news. Aaron Chiropractic Clinic makes sure that Fort Wayne chiropractic patients know this and provides safe, gentle, effective, pain-relieving treatment.
