When I check into a hotel for a conference, the conversation
often sounds like this:
Front desk staff: “So what are you here for?”
Me: “I’m a chiropractor from Montreal attending a
meeting.”
Front desk staff: “Really? My neck is
killing me!”
Your Montreal chiropractor loves
this and could converse about back pain and neck pain forever!
Montreal chiropractic patients at Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic know this for sure. Your Montreal chiropractor welcomes
the status as the Montreal back pain specialist.
Being a primary spine practitioner is so exciting and inviting!
Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic knows back pain and neck pain, is a specialty
clinic for spine pain patients, and isn’t shy
in the least about letting everyone know in
Montreal.
BEING THE PRIMARY SPINE PRACTITIONER
You have heard of the Gallup Poll. A consultant
for Gallup teamed up with the Palmer College of Chiropractic for
a study that revealed that 78% of American adults would rather use a non-drug option over a prescription medication to deal with
pain like low back or neck pain. Those same adults thought
physical therapy and chiropractic care as quite effective and safe
when compared to pain meds. Aaron Carroll MD writes for the New York Times, and
in a blog post called “For Bad Backs, It’s Time to Rethink Biases about
Chiropractors,” he stressed how bad the opioid crisis is in
the US and that evidence-based non-drug options like
spinal manipulation are rational
alternatives. (1) Chiropractic identity researchers concluded
that chiropractic is viewed by society as a profession of health
care providers who are experts in spine care as their
education, scope of practice, and educational accrediting and testing revolve
around spine care. (2) In one study 61.4% of US adults expressed
that chiropractic care successfully
relieved neck and back pain. 52.6% believed
chiropractors were trustworthy. (3) Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic gets
this. Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic grasps that Montreal back pain
and neck pain patients find relief with the
Montreal chiropractic care and then trust
Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic to point them in other healthy approaches to
control their back pain conditions and improve their health and
spine to prevent future unpleasant health and/or spinal
pain conditions.
BENEFITS OF PRIMARY SPINE PRACTITIONERS
Specially educated to care for patients with
spinal disease, primary spine practitioners take on many responsibilities:
diagnose, rule out serious pathology (cancer, fracture, infection, etc.), give
evidence-based care like spinal manipulation, manual therapy, rehab/exercise,
education about the condition, counseling to help the back pain sufferer accept
the condition and its outcome expectations as well as commit to its treatment plan, and organize
all phases of care (imaging, injections, surgery if/when
needed). (4) It is an extensive job with lots
of responsibility! It is absolutely the role
your Montreal chiropractor embraces! What do
Montreal back pain sufferers wants? Consumers want
access to non-drug therapies delivered by spine care
experts like chiropractors first. This helps
in several ways. One is improving the value of
spine care delivery. Two is helping address the primary care
shortage. (1,5) Three is lessening the cost of care. (6) Four is
possibly reining in the opioid epidemic. The American
College of Physicians’ recommendations for back pain sufferers specifically state
that opioids are the last option behind non-pharmacological treatment options
like spinal manipulation, exercise, acupuncture, etc. (7) Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic is
here to do its part to help.
