Fort Wayne Chiropractic and Manipulation Ease and Keep Pain At Bay
“An apple a day…” Everyone can finish that saying! Access to chiropractic and spinal manipulation for Fort Wayne back pain and neck pain sufferers is reported to do the same. Access just needs to be as easy as access to apples! According to research, chiropractic and spinal manipulation relieve pain and diminish the need for escalated treatments and tests when they are easily accessible to back and neck pain sufferers. (Even dogs benefited from veterinary chiropractic spinal manipulation!) Aaron Chiropractic Clinic presents gentle spinal manipulation via a well-informed chiropractic treatment plan.
CHIROPRACTIC CARE AND SPINAL MANIPULATION AND BACK PAIN MANAGEMENT
Spinal manipulation is a staple treatment at Aaron Chiropractic Clinic with good reason! A rat study of the effect of manipulation and mobilization and sham treatment on reducing neuroinflammation in acute lumbar radiculopathy (leg pain) showed that manipulation and mobilization resulted in more pain relief. Manipulation was a bit quicker in delivering relief and easing severe radiculopathy. (1) Spinal manipulation and mobilization are leading treatments at Aaron Chiropractic Clinic for back pain and radiculopathy. We’re here for you as soon as you bring your back pain and/or leg pain to our office! Aaron Chiropractic Clinic also understands that our Fort Wayne chiropractic patients are motivated to receive in-office care but not always as eager to do their at-home care. They are not alone! 89% of chiropractic patients said they made their appointments. That is the easier part! 82% said their chiropractor’s recommendations for treatment and at-home care (stretching and exercise) were understandable, but only 44% of them actually did the at-home care. (2) We know it is tough to make time at home, and we’ll keep doing our best at every visit to care for your spinal condition…and supportively remind you to do yours!
SPINAL MANIPULATION AND ACCESS TO CHIROPRACTIC REDUCED NEED FOR MORE ADVANCED CARE
Researchers wondered just how access to chiropractic influenced medical care for older adults with spinal pain. In an analysis of Medicare claims for 39,278 older adult chiropractic users, less access to chiropractic care increased the use of medical services (primary care physician visits and spine surgeries) for spine pain conditions. The researchers equated this to an additional cost of $114,967 per 1000 beneficiaries ($391 million nationally). (3) That is a lot of money and suffering. Aaron Chiropractic Clinic makes itself accessible to our Fort Wayne spine pain sufferers! Further, 42% of neck pain patients get escalated treatments like imaging, injection, emergency room, surgery. Neck pain patients managed with spinal manipulation – 90% of which is delivered by chiropractors in the US – were less likely to undergo escalated care. Only 26% of spinal manipulation patients underwent escalated care whereas 46% of neck pain sufferers who sought other types of care did. Their risk of treatment escalation was double. (4) Aaron Chiropractic Clinic offers spinal manipulation. Your Fort Wayne chiropractor is experienced in performing safe, gentle, relieving spinal manipulation.
EVEN DOGS BENEFIT FROM CHIROPRACTIC TREATMENT
There are chiropractic colleagues who also are very good at performing spinal manipulation on animals! Interesting! Some dog breeds like boxers tend to develop spondylosis deformans, a spinal disease distinguished by disc degeneration and bone spurs. A study of boxer puppies aged 8 weeks to one year compared puppies treated with veterinary chiropractic each month to same aged boxers not treated with chiropractic. At one year of age, the treated puppies had spondylosis significantly less (only 25% were found to have it on imaging) than the the control puppies (46.5% had it on imaging). This suggests that veterinary chiropractic treatment may successfully lessen the probably of young boxers developing spondylosis. (5) Our Fort Wayne furry companions are helped with chiropractic treatment, too!
