The Murfreesboro chiropractic patients have expectations of their care. Those are valuable to share!

WHAT DO YOU EXPECT? It matters!

Chiropractic patients have pretty clear expectations of their chiropractic spinal care provider – a thorough exam, a clear diagnosis of the cause of pain, precise information and guidance on how to deal with it, and pain relief – one who listens intently, confirms the realness of their pain, and involves them in the treatment plan. (1) Sound familiar? We believe it does! Our Murfreesboro chiropractic patients expect the same from our care at Most Chiropractic Clinic! Athletes and “geri-active” patients mix it up a bit. ATHLETES: Athletes presumed musculoskeletal assessment and treatment at and beyond the site of injury, improvement of symptoms, good communication, and expertise from their chiropractor in addition to reassurance, advantageous impact on their athletic performance, and injury prevention input. (2) "GERI-ACTIVEs": Older back pain sufferers want much the same, too: guidance through the healthcare system as necessary (important!), communicate clearly, develop an interpersonal relationship, have a passion for patient care (as well as comforting patience with the patient!), and possess clinical and diagnostic skill. They also expressed the value of interdisciplinary collaboration and their preference for hands-on treatment of musculoskeletal conditions. (3) Murfreesboro chiropractic patients want their chiropractors to be healthcare team players, clear communicators of realistic expectations, skilled hands-on musculoskeletal treatment providers, and great listeners! Your Murfreesboro chiropractor is all that…and more!

Listen to this PODCAST with Dr. Nate McKee on The Back Doctors Podcast with Dr. Michael Johnson as he meets patient expectations by clearly defining the problem – spinal stenosis and balance – and its treatment plan via the Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain Management which includes patient education, spinal manipulation, nutrition, and exercise.

Most Chiropractic Clinic presents support for core stabilization exercises at any age in the management and prevention of back pain.  

Murfreesboro CHIROPRACTIC TIP OF THE MONTH: Core Stabilization Exercise

Exercise isn’t just for the athlete! Back pain sufferers benefit from core stabilization to reduce chronic low back pain. A study of fighter pilots resulted in significantly less chronic low back pain and less incidence of neck pain following core stabilization exercise. (4) Older folks benefit, too, as those who experience with low back pain often experience poor postural control which leads to poor balance and a higher risk of falls. Core stability training in older women improved many outcome scores for them: VAS visual analog scale of pain level, Oswestry disability, timed-up-and-go test, 10-minute walking, and four-square step test. (5) Athlete or not, young or old, exercise works! Most Chiropractic Clinic is ready to talk with you about what would work for you.
