Poulin Chiropractic of Herndon and Ashburns September 2017 Healthy Newsletter

Research states that those who go through rehabilitation after back disc surgery experience better treatment outcomes in the year after the back surgery. They go back to work. (1) Some back surgery patients do not undergo rehabilitation by choice or by not being told to do it. For those who face continued pain after back surgery (also called “failed back surgical syndrome”), Ashburn and Herndon chiropractic Cox Technic spinal manipulation care may help ease the pain without further surgical intervention. A study of 69 post-surgical continued pain patients seeing a chiropractor using Cox Technic documents that 81% of these patients achieved greater than 50% pain relief in 11 visits over a 49-day period of active care. (2) That can be ample relief to return these patients to enjoy their lives again! If you, a loved one or a friend didn’t do any rehabilitation after back surgery and/or are experiencing back pain post-back surgery, Poulin Chiropractic of Herndon and Ashburn can help with gentle, research-documented, Ashburn and Herndon chiropractic care and treatment.

Exercise is good for the nutritional state of your spinal discs! The discs are comprised of glycosaminoglycans which are made chondroitin sulfate, dermatan sulfate, glucosamine sulfate. Researchers explain that physical exercise doesn’t reduce glycosaminoglycans; exercise increases their concentration even in overtraining situations. (3) Plus doing some muscle strengthening activities twice a week lowers your chances of low back pain. (4) Ask Poulin Chiropractic of Herndon and Ashburn about chondroitin sulfate supplementation and exercise as accompaniments to your Ashburn and Herndon chiropractic treatment plan for your disc’s health and healing!
