Wouldn’t it be nice to take a
pill – or even better: a combination of pills! - and have your
West Palm Beach back pain or neck pain disappear
immediately? You are not alone! Chiropractic Care can empathize.
Pain disrupts our lives. Back pain keeps many
West Palm Beach back pain sufferers from working and from playing and from
doing activities of daily living that must be done (walking, showering, cooking, cleaning, dressing,
etc.). When back pain affects you or someone
close to you, come to Chiropractic Care for relief and chiropractic
advice regarding how to manage it without
drugs when or if drugs are not doing what you need or are not in
your treatment plan.
NOT CLEARLY SUPPORTED: DRUG COMBINATIONS
Having drugs in the treatment plan may be
successful for some back pain sufferers and not others. Pills may give
relief for a few hours, days, weeks, months or not at all.
A recent Cochrane Review, one of the most highly respected
medical review systems in the world, stated that a drug combination,
though possibly better for more pain relief, for low back pain and
sciatica is not supported. There is no clear evidence, as a matter of fact
there is a shortage of studies and overall low quality of evidence,
that backs combining drugs for low back
pain and sciatica. Further, the risk of adverse effects is lower
with single drug therapy over combined. (1) Have you had
a let-down from prescribed medications for your back pain? It’s ok.
Chiropractic Care works with back pain patients
like you.
RECOMMENDED: SPINAL MANIPULATION
Chiropractic Care’s use of the Cox® Technic System of Spinal
Pain Management which integrates a specialized
form of spinal manipulation has assisted countless
West Palm Beach back pain sufferers realize relief of their back pain. Spinal manipulation is recommended
as first line treatment of back pain by the American College of Physicians and the
American Board of Family Physicians. (2) Cox® Technic has been
shown in federally funded spinal research studies to reduce
intradiscal pressures, widen the intervertebral canal area, and improve
disc height. (3,4) In
clinical studies, Cox® Technic has shown that back pain
relief comes in 29 days and 12 visits. Of course, more severe disc
herniations and spinal stenosis may take more time than these
averages, but relief happens. (5) For many back pain sufferers, 50%
relief would be most welcome. What about you?
RESEARCH SUPPORTED: CHONDROITIN SULFATE, TURMERIC AND CURCUMIN

our West Palm Beach back pain patients, Chiropractic Care integrates
supplements into the West Palm Beach chiropractic treatment plan. Natural

anti-inflammatory properties (6) - and back pain-relieving turmeric and

the right combination of treatment approaches to reduce
