As the saying goes:
“When Harvard talks, people listen.” Ok,
that’s a variation of the motto,
but Harvard’s reputation does catch people’s attention. In the
November 2017 edition of the
Harvard
Health Letter, a prime 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 turn to
for help. The Harvard recommendation is a chiropractor (like your West Palm Beach
chiropractor at Chiropractic Care 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, remarks
that 35% to 42% of back pain sufferers seek care from a
chiropractor for their initial episode of back pain.
(1) Chiropractic Care concurs that many of the West Palm Beach
back pain sufferers seeking West Palm Beach chiropractic
care do so with a first episode of West Palm Beach back pain.
CONTROL OF BACK PAIN
That first episode of West Palm Beach back pain care is critical
as to how the first West Palm Beach 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 West Palm Beach back pain episodes, but that may not always be realistic.
And that is 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 resilient.
Control of diet to reduce inflammatory consumption and
improve the intake of joint supporting
nutrients. Control is important. Chiropractic Care designs
a well-rounded West Palm Beach treatment plan that comprises
these control factors once the current pain subsides as Harvard’s
newsletter points out, chiropractors like your West Palm Beach chiropractor
uses hands-on spinal manipulation (particularly Cox Technic at Chiropractic Care)
and exercise, diet and stretching programs to help
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 makes
clear, the well-trained chiropractor (and your
West Palm Beach chiropractor at Chiropractic Care is!) will direct
your case. If the back pain sufferer should need another
form of care, the chiropractor will organize
that care and appointment should it be with a neurologist,
physiatrist, physical therapist, pain management doctor, or spinal surgeon.
Chiropractors collaborate
with all types of healthcare
specialists. For back sprains/strains and herniated discs, Harvard’s health
newsletter exclaims that “a visit to your primary care
physician or chiropractor may be all it takes to feel better.”
