Osteoarthritis, knee or hip, may accompany low back pain for some folks. Lumbar
spinal stenosis is a specific spinal condition that is expanding
its influence as our population ages. Its symptoms often appear with other osteoarthritic conditions and stenosis symptoms.
Most Chiropractic Clinic shares pain relieving Murfreesboro
chiropractic care for spine pain relief for spinal stenosis and other spine
pain conditions.
THE COMBINATION: Back Pain and Osteoarthritis
New research reported that 15% of
knee and 23% of knee osteoarthritic patients also had lumbar
spinal stenosis symptoms. They both experienced improvements in knee
or hip related pain, function and quality of life when they went
through a patient education and exercise program. So what works for these patients? Research study after
research study reports that exercise therapy likely enhances
patient outcomes for patients with knee or hip osteoarthritis while no one type
is said to be better than the others. (1,2,3,4) Most Chiropractic Clinic adds
spinal manipulation to boost the Murfreesboro chiropractic care
and clinical outcomes.
TREATMENT FOR BACK PAIN AND OSTEOARTHRITIS
Not startling to any of our
current Murfreesboro chiropractic patients, hands-on spinal manipulation
is pivotal to our treatment plan. A study of conservative
treatment of low back pain due to lumbar spinal
stenosis found that incorporating flexion
distraction spinal manipulation produced a more
significant decrease in pain and disability scores. (5) Another
study using a Cox® flexion distraction impacted
treatment of knee pain and osteoarthritis documented a mean drop
in VAS (visual analog scale 0-10)-patient reported pain scores from 7.7 to 1.8 in
5.3 treatments in 3 weeks. This study documented clinical
improvement for patients with knee pain. (6) Pain relief is our goal here at Most Chiropractic Clinic
and is most likely yours as well!
