Executive Chiropractic of Iowa Works to Deliver Back Pain Relief Goals You Want
Results. Pain Relief. That is what our West Des Moines back pain and neck pain patients want from our West Des Moines chiropractic care. Executive Chiropractic of Iowa gets this and provides this with reasonable expectations lining up with what our spine pain patients want. Relief is feasible. We’ll discuss how, how much, and when.
PATIENT INPUT REGARDING WHAT RELIEF MEANS
Executive Chiropractic of Iowa keeps our back pain and neck pain patients at the core of care. We pay attention to what our West Des Moines chiropractic patients want to do that they can’t do presently. It is sensible to put such a goal/goals at the center of care! A review of 12 studies about the non-surgical care of chronic low back pain indicates that patient-led goal setting is important in and of itself as a treatment element to attaining desired back pain relief. (1) This is welcome news to the millions of annual chronic low back pain sufferers. They can help in their own relief! That’s why we question our West Des Moines back pain and neck pain sufferers what they want to do that they miss doing now. The one thing - or many things – our patients want to do are motivating for us both1!
SURGICAL OR NON-SURGICAL
Executive Chiropractic of Iowa purposely wants to set realistic expectations that motivate us all. Many West Des Moines back pain sufferers question if surgery is better/quicker than non-surgical, chiropractic spinal manipulative care. A recent article proposes a few thoughts on surgery for lumbar disc herniation due to pre- and post-surgery issues: (A) evidence that immune/auto-immunity may play a role in spontaneous resolution of a lumbar disc herniation, (B) documented 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 issues spinal implant removal is warranted, and (E) postoperative lumbar spinal stiffness. (2) With these ideas 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. Admittedly, baseline stiffness, BMI, waist circumference and sex may influence the outcomes. (3) At Executive Chiropractic of Iowa, 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
West Des Moines 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 reducing the progression of intervertebral disc degeneration at the mitochondrial cell level by eliminating reactive oxygen species!
