“Do I have to see my chiropractor forever?” is a normal
question Most Chiropractic Clinic gets when Murfreesboro
folks talk about chiropractic. Murfreesboro chiropractic patients are a mixed
lot. Some Murfreesboro chiropractic patients come for a
specific spinal pain relief issue and stop coming. Some Murfreesboro
chiropractic patients come and go as their back pain or neck pain issue requires
(though following closely the at-home care program that includes
lifestyle issues, diet, nutrition, and exercise keeps these
issues at bay for many!). Some Murfreesboro chiropractic patients discover
that coming for a Murfreesboro chiropractic spinal manipulation
visit on a normal basis after pain relief is attained
benefits them: feeling better and keeping that better feeling when reminded
to keep doing healthy things like exercising, eating right and
being adjusted. Most Chiropractic Clinic appreciates every Murfreesboro
chiropractic patient who trusts their spine’s healing and
on-going health to this Murfreesboro chiropractic practice.
OPTIMAL NUMBER OF CHIROPRACTIC VISITS FOR CHRONIC LOW BACK PAIN
Now, just how frequently a Murfreesboro
chiropractic patient can profit from Murfreesboro chiropractic
care visits is a well-researched answer for chronic
low back pain patients. Most Chiropractic Clinic presents a new
study in which chronic low back pain patients were treated three times a
week for 6 weeks. Some visits were with spinal manipulation; some were with
light massage; some not treatment at all. Finally,
12 chiropractic spinal manipulation treatments created the most promising
outcomes for chronic low back pain patients. At
one year follow up, the 18 visits patients showed peak
outcomes for disability and pain relief. (1) Most Chiropractic Clinic uses the Cox
Technic System of Spinal Pain Management which has researched and documented for other specific spinal issues
the number of visits and days to maximum improvement. Such evidence lets
Most Chiropractic Clinic to really aid our Murfreesboro back pain
patients’ understanding of what to expect with
Murfreesboro chiropractic care.
NUMBER OF CHIROPRACTIC VISITS BY CONDITION
The number of visits for low back pain episodes varies
often with the underlying cause of the back pain episode. A study from 30
chiropractic clinics’ chiropractic care with flexion distraction (aka Cox
Technic) gathered data on 1000 back pain patients. It recorded
the types of conditions treated, the days, visits and patient outcomes. Globally35,
12 visits in 29 days were the mean outcomes for maximum
improvement. For specific conditions like spondylolisthesis,
disc herniation (even L4 vs L5 disc herniation), sprain/strain, etc., the days
and visits varied. There is a difference in treating a disc
herniation versus a sprain understandably. One is more difficult to treat than the
other. 91% of patients found relief of their low back pain
and leg pain on average in fewer
than 90 days (when the condition turns "chronic") and
12 visits. (2)
Whatever your underlying condition of spinal
pain, a Murfreesboro chiropractic treatment plan can be planned
for its relief with a recommendation for on-going chiropractic care if that is wanted.
