BACK PAIN RELIEF RECOMMENDATIONS

They run the gamut. Poulin Chiropractic of Herndon and Ashburn hears about them all the time. Everyone from friends, family members, researchers, doctors, etc., have ideas and stories. In light of the wide range of back pain care recommendations, researchers suggest that the standardization of care for back pain - exercise, spinal manipulation and opioid prescriptions – that may benefit back pain sufferers most favorably. (1) We agree. We read the research and mingle it with our clinical experience to develop an individualized treatment plan for our back pain patients. With the predicted growth of low back pain through 2050 – from 619 million people around the world to more than 800 million (2) – effective, research-documented, non-drug, non-surgical choices for back pain are welcome, especially ones that are tried and verified as being beneficial.  A recent paper was just published regarding the care for a specific type of back pain - continued back pain after back surgery known as failed back surgery syndrome (FBSS) - that often results in continued or increased opioid pain medication use.  The study reported that FBSS patients treated with Cox® Flexion Distraction Decompression Manipulation described reduction or discontinuation of opioid use in the course of an initial 3-month course of treatment. (3) That is an encouraging outcome of a treatment approach to incorporate into the standardized back pain treatment recommendations!

SPECIFIC RECOMMENDATIONS

So what can our Ashburn chiropractic patients do to limit their back pain and its effect on their lives? Sleep. Keep active. Makes their appointments for spinal manipulation. Feedback from 2333 back pain sufferers noted that additional sleep, less sedentariness, and more moderate to vigorous intensity physical activity was beneficial. The authors shared an example of how swapping 30 minutes of sedentary behavior for 30 minutes of sleep lessened low back pain frequency odds by 5% and pain intensity by 2%. Sleep is vital! (4) So too is a visit to the Ashburn chiropractor for spinal manipulation as recommended in the guidelines published by the American College of Physicians and The American Pain Society as having good evidence of effectiveness for low back pain along with exercise, CBT, and rehabilitation.
