Chiropractic Care for Fort Wayne Back Pain Advised by Harvard

December 17, 2017

As the saying goes: “When Harvard talks, people listen.” Ok, that is a reworked version of the saying, but Harvard’s reputation does get people’s attention. In the November 2017 edition of the Harvard Health Letter, a central report titled “Where to turn for low back pain relief. In most cases, a primary care doctor or chiropractor can help you resolve the problem.” presents back pain and whom back pain sufferers ought to seek for help. The Harvard recommendation is a chiropractor (like your Fort Wayne chiropractor at Aaron Chiropractic Clinic or primary care doctor. Dr. Matthew Kowalski, a chiropractor on staff at Harvard’s Osher Clinical Center for Integrative Medicine at the Harvard-affiliated Brigham and Women’s Hospital, notes that 35% to 42% of back pain sufferers turn to a chiropractor for their first attack of back pain. (1) Aaron Chiropractic Clinic concurs that many of the Fort Wayne back pain sufferers seeking Fort Wayne chiropractic care do so with a first episode of Fort Wayne back pain.

CONTROL OF BACK PAIN

That first episode of Fort Wayne back pain care is important as to how the first Fort Wayne back pain episode goes as well as how future back pain incidents may be controlled. The objective, of course, would be to put off all future Fort Wayne back pain episodes, but that may not always be realistic. And that’s ok, too. There is control. Control of body motions like bending, lifting and twisting. Control of body muscle like exercising what there is (or isn’t of muscle!) to make it strong and flexible. Control of diet to decrease inflammatory intake and increase the intake of joint supporting nutrients. Control is fundamental. Aaron Chiropractic Clinic encourages a well-rounded Fort Wayne treatment plan that comprises these control factors once the current pain subsides as Harvard’s newsletter points out, chiropractors like your Fort Wayne chiropractor uses hands-on spinal manipulation (particularly Cox Technic at Aaron Chiropractic Clinic) and exercise, diet and stretching programs to alleviate back pain. It’s a whole-body approach!

CHIROPRACTIC MANAGEMENT OF CARE OPTIONS

The chiropractor as the first episode consultant knows back pain and the options appropriate to help. As Harvard’s Dr. Kowalski explains, the experienced chiropractor (and your Fort Wayne chiropractor at Aaron Chiropractic Clinic is!) will manage your case. If the back pain sufferer should need a different form of care, the chiropractor will orchestrate that care and appointment should that be with a neurologist, physiatrist, physical therapist, pain management doctor, or spinal surgeon. Chiropractors work agreeably with all these of healthcare specialists. For back sprains/strains and herniated discs, Harvard’s health newsletter states that “a visit to your primary care physician or chiropractor may be all it takes to feel better.”
