Best to See Your Fort Wayne Chiropractor As Long As You Need
“Do I have to see my chiropractor forever?” is a familiar question Aaron Chiropractic Clinic gets when Fort Wayne folks talk about chiropractic. Fort Wayne chiropractic patients are a assorted group. Some Fort Wayne chiropractic patients come for a specific spinal pain relief issue and stop coming. Some Fort Wayne chiropractic patients come and go as their back pain or neck pain issue requires (though following closely the at-home care program that includes lifestyle issues, diet, nutrition, and exercise keeps these issues at bay for many!). Some Fort Wayne chiropractic patients discover that making a Fort Wayne chiropractic spinal manipulation visit on a normal basis after pain relief is attained benefits them: feeling better and keeping that better feeling when reminded to keep doing healthy things like exercising, eating right and being adjusted. Aaron Chiropractic Clinic is grateful for every Fort Wayne chiropractic patient who trusts their spine’s healing and on-going health to this Fort Wayne chiropractic practice.
Now, just how often a Fort Wayne chiropractic patient can profit from Fort Wayne chiropractic care visits is a research-documented answer for chronic low back pain patients. Aaron Chiropractic Clinic presents a new study in which participants with chronic low back pain were treated three times a week for 6 weeks. During each visit the patient would receive spinal manipulation or light massage or no treatment. Finally, 12 chiropractic spinal manipulation treatments produced the most positive results for chronic low back pain patients. A year after care, the 18 visits patients showed greatest outcomes for disability and pain relief. (1) Aaron Chiropractic Clinic uses the Cox Technic System of Spinal Pain Management which has researched and documented for other specific spinal conditions the number of visits and days to maximum improvement. Such evidence allows Aaron Chiropractic Clinic to really aid our Fort Wayne back pain patients’ understanding of what to expect with Fort Wayne chiropractic care.
The number of visits for low back pain episodes fluctuates often with the underlying cause of the back pain episode. A study from 30 chiropractic clinics’ chiropractic care with flexion distraction (aka Cox Technic) gathered data on 1000 back pain patients. It documented the types of conditions treated, the days, visits and patient outcomes. Globally35, 12 visits in 29 days were the mean results for maximum improvement. For specific conditions like spondylolisthesis, disc herniation (even L4 vs L5 disc herniation), sprain/strain, etc., the days and visits varied. There is a difference in treating a disc herniation versus a sprain understandably. One presents a greater challenge to treat than the other. 91% of patients found relief of their low back pain and leg pain on average in less than 90 days (when the condition turns "chronic") and 12 visits.
