Results. Pain Relief. That is what our Montreal
back pain and neck pain patients want from our
Montreal chiropractic care. Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic knows
this and delivers this with reasonable expectations lining up with what our spine pain patients want. Relief
is possible. We will discuss how, how
much, and when.
PATIENT INPUT REGARDING WHAT RELIEF MEANS
Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic always puts our back pain and
neck pain patients at the center of care. We pay attention
to what our Montreal chiropractic patients want to do that they cannot
do presently. It is sensible to place such
a goal/goals at the center of care! A review of 12 studies regarding
the non-surgical care of chronic low back pain explains
that patient-led goal setting is effective in and of
itself as a treatment element to attaining
desired back pain relief. (1) This is longed-for news to the
millions of annual chronic low back pain sufferers. They can boost the chances of their own relief! That is why we question
our Montreal back pain and neck pain sufferers what they want to do
that they can’t do now. The one thing - or many
things – our patients want to do motivate all of us1!
SURGICAL OR NON-SURGICAL
Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic intentionally wants to establish
realistic expectations that motivate all of us. Many Montreal
back pain sufferers question if surgery is
better/quicker than non-surgical, chiropractic spinal manipulative care. A recent article offers a few ideas
on surgery for lumbar disc herniation due to pre- and post-surgery considerations:
(A) evidence that immune/auto-immunity may play a role in
spontaneous resolution of a lumbar disc herniation, (B) recorded
long-term complications of lumbar spine fusion (adjacent segment disease, implant
failure, etc.), (C) systemic and local reactions to metal instrumentation, (D) ambiguous
parameters as to when and for what conditions spinal implant
removal is warranted, and (E) postoperative lumbar spinal
stiffness. (2) With these concerns in mind, let’s consider another report that focuses on the immediate beneficial
effects of spinal mobilization for low back pain sufferers: reduced
muscle stiffness, elasticity, and tone. The researchers acknowled that
baseline stiffness, BMI, waist circumference and sex may have something
to do with the outcomes. (3) At Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic, our Cox® Technic
System of Spinal Pain Management is documented to be beneficial for
a range of patient conditions.
HOW CHIROPRACTIC CAN HELP WITH RELIEF…AND IN WHAT TIMEFRAME
Montreal chiropractic care of back and neck pain addresses a multitude of spinal conditions in patients
of all sizes and shapes. Published studies about Cox® Technic have shown
how spinal stiffness may play a role in positive outcomes. Spinal
manipulation via Cox® Technic may be delivered in the gentlest manner
in a variety of doctor-controlled situations that are comfortable
for the patient. Exercise and nutrition round out the
treatment plan. (For wine lovers, new nutritional research reported on
the benefits of reservatrol and its anti-oxidant effects in slowing
the progression of intervertebral disc degeneration at the mitochondrial cell
level by getting rid of reactive oxygen species! (4)) Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic
has a way to help our patients get what they want:
results.
