Back surgery. It’s an option some choose for back pain relief. About 50% of them report relief at one year
later. What then? More back surgery? More
pain medications? A spine stimulator? Physical therapy? Chiropractic?
Most Chiropractic Clinic would add chiropractic care as a viable option
before back surgery, and Most Chiropractic Clinic welcomes back pain patients to the
Murfreesboro back pain specialty practice even if they’ve
already undergone back surgery and still have pain. Chiropractic
is a non-surgical method to alleviate
Murfreesboro spine pain, and Cox Technic is the chiropractic treatment
protocol that is based on evidence-based research with documented clinical
outcomes of alleviating and controlling back pain. It fulfills Murfreesboro back pain patients’ desire for
relief.
Most Chiropractic Clinic presents it to their Murfreesboro back pain patients
if they find themselves with post-surgical continued pain or the condition diagnosis of “failed
back surgery syndrome” (FBSS).
Post Surgical Continued Pain Diagnosis
A FBSS diagnosis is surely not one a
post-surgical back pain patient wants to ponder let alone experience. It happens though. Often another surgery isn’t the desired answer for these types of back pain sufferers.
Often such a patient is referred for physical therapy, advised to try
medications or injections, even implanted with a spine stimulator. Often such a
patient wants to try anything but those medical
approaches. Sometimes such a patient wishes he or she had tried something else
before back surgery. Most Chiropractic Clinic stands ready with its Murfreesboro
chiropractic care to help at any stage of the process of back
pain and its relief.
Chiropractic Care for FBSS
Low back pain care with chiropractic shows itself
to be equally effective as physical therapy with no serious
adverse side-effects. This review report further states
that “the decision to seek or to refer patients for chiropractic care should be
based on patient preference and values.” (1) That’s what
evidence-based medicine is all about: seek out the best evidence from the research,
seek care from the back pain specialist who is clinically adept,
and meet patient expectations and preferences. That’s what
chiropractic research continues to do: produce the research and publish the
outcomes for the public to decide what is best for dealing
with their back pain.
Decision Making
How does one make that decision though? Surgeons,
pain control specialists, physical therapists and chiropractors all offer their
various approaches that seem workable for relief,
the pain suffering patient may have trouble deciding. What will
help? Have all of these providers provide patients with impartial information about the potential
benefits and risks of the options. (2) Everyone knows though that when the pain
is intense, the first offer of relief is really appealing.
Any human physician wants to help a person in pain get rid of that. Most Chiropractic Clinic certainly does.
Our Murfreesboro back pain sufferers are appreciative
when they get relief after care.

So Most Chiropractic Clinic wants to share recent chiropractic-outcome
articles with Murfreesboro back pain patients: spinal manipulation relief
for post-surgical continued pain patients and for post-implanted and currently
wearing spinal stimulator patients. A study of 69 post-surgical continued pain
patients, 80% of patients showed greater
than 50% relief of pain at the end of care (3 months) in a mean of
49 days and 11 visits, and 78.6% continued with their 50% relief
of pain at 24 months follow up. The percent of relief was 71.6% at
3 months and 70% at 24 months. (3) Then,
researchers tell that no adverse effects from chiropractic manipulation
or mobilization treatment applied to patients who have implanted spine stimulators for pain control are noted in their findings. (4) Finally,
a post-surgical patient responds well to
rehabilitation and Cox Technic spinal manipulation care, reporting
pain decreasing from 8 to 3 on a 10 point scale over 12 visits
in 3 months. (5) Most Chiropractic Clinic finds that a
combination approach for pain relief is often most
beneficial for our Murfreesboro chiropractic patients.
Most Chiropractic Clinic makes a chiropractic
treatment plan tailored for each Murfreesboro chiropractic
patient that involves the following: combination of approaches as
appropriate, interaction with fellow healthcare colleagues as
needed, presentation of the newest
in clinical outcomes of care options available, and support for you, our Murfreesboro post-surgical continued back pain
patient, all the way.
