How Long Do I Have to See The Chiropractor?

"Why do I need continued chiropractic treatments for my back pain? Why can't you, my Fort Wayne chiropractor, just treat it and put a stop to the pain altogether so it doesn't come back?"

This is not an atypical question, and it's also very sensible. The answer is fairly simple, too, though two-fold: we are born with spinal issues or we develop them.

BORN-WITH-IT BACK PAIN

Some of us are born with spinal conditions that will be with us all life through. Such conditions as spondylolisthesis, transitional vertebrae, fused vertebrae, and spinal curvatures are unique to one's own spine. There is no path to "get a new back bone" if one of these conditions is our own. So we must learn how to use our spines so as to not trigger pain. Your Fort Wayne chiropractor at Aaron Chiropractic Clinic can deliver the spinal manipulation designed to alleviate your specific spinal condition. Then, you'll want to think about its 

It is in these continued spine problems that we - you and your Fort Wayne chiropractor - must work together for the most welcome outcome, even coming in for occasional spinal manipulation. (1)

LIFE-ACQUIRED BACK PAIN

Some of us hurt our backs. We do things that harm the seemingly healthiest of spines: tumbling off a snowmobile or ladder or wakeboard or lifting too much weight. You get the idea - things we do in our normal activities of daily living may harm us, and we end up with back pain. So, when we hurt the spine to the extent that we cause intervertebral disc degeneration, a herniated disc, arthritis, misaligned vertebrae, etc., we now will contend with a spinal weakness which may become the vulnerable link in our spinal health.

We all must nurture a strong, well-aligned spine and utilize the spine with the respect and knowledge of avoiding those situations that could cause it pain.

How? You and your Fort Wayne chiropractor see each other every so often. A recurring visit to Aaron Chiropractic Clinic for spinal alignment and assessment of healthy spine maintenance is helpful. Post-continued spinal manipulation after the original pain-relieving care is even described as a way to obtain long-term benefit. (1) Truly, prevention is much better than having to go through repetitive treatment of Fort Wayne back pain. It avoids pain and suffering in this moment and reduces the chance of further spine pain in the future.

PATIENT-CENTERED BACK PAIN CARE: CHIROPRACTIC

A recent report described the reality of low back pain being a major reason for disability globally. It is persistent or recurrent for many people. It is not common that it just goes away and never returns. Luckily, chiropractic maintenance care or management treatment plan has been found to be effective in reducing painful days for some sufferers. Patients for whom maintenance care was recorded to be of high value described such care as “patient-centered” while cost, (un)availability of care, and fear of treatment worried others. (2) Aaron Chiropractic Clinic strives to address all of these concerns which often go away as the back pain decreases.

Whether you were born with it or developed it, back pain is no fun. Remedy is possible with Aaron Chiropractic Clinic. Just understand that there is a logical necessity and even benefit for periodic spinal manipulation and chiropractic care for certain spine conditions. (1)
