Most Chiropractic Clinic Knows Anatomy Well, Knows Your Spine Well
Your Murfreesboro chiropractor knows
your spine! Most Chiropractic Clinic knows anatomy. Back in
chiropractic school, your chiropractor learned much
about anatomy of the spine and puts that knowledge to
use daily. Knowing the anatomy of the
spine is continually
at the forefront of your chiropractor’s mind as you and each spine pain, neck
pain, back pain patient walks through the door!
It is so exciting! (Are you not you happy
someone finds it exciting?)
LEARNING ANATOMY IN SCHOOL
Going through school, we’re
all guilty of learning just to pass an exam. Going
to professional school, such learning is more important
than ever since it will affect everyday work. (How much
do you remember from your school days?) An
international survey of chiropractors and anatomists described
that chiropractors thought that a higher level of anatomy teaching
during chiropractic school was beneficial
for clinical practice, allowing better understanding,
application, and analysis of anatomical information to justify
a clinical decision in their daily clinical practice. (1) An Australian report
of chiropractors compared their knowledge of anatomy to that of chiropractic
students. The chiropractic practitioners rated their knowledge of anatomy and proved it by taking a test of their knowledge. This was contrasted
to the same in their chiropractic student counterparts. The
chiropractors demonstrated that they retained their
knowledge of anatomy - and knew they did! – breaking the hypothesis
that practicing chiropractors may not keep
it after school. Knowledge of anatomy is utilized
daily in chiropractic practice, and chiropractors understand
their anatomy. (2) Your Murfreesboro chiropractor does! Just ask to find out more.
SPINAL ANATOMY KNOWLEDGE PUT TO USE IN CHIROPRACTIC CLINICAL
PRACTICE
Performing spinal manipulation every
day utilizes knowledge of the spine’s anatomy every day.
The most common reasons people said they
sought chiropractic care were low back pain (49.7%), neck pain (22.5%), and
extremity issues (10.0%). The most common treatment they received
were spinal manipulation (79.3%), soft tissue therapy (35.1%), and formal
patient education (31.3%). (3) Spinal conditions receive a great
deal of attention from chiropractic patients and their
chiropractors, of course! But fortunate side effects of
chiropractic care materialize in the medical literature as well
like potential cardiovascular benefit. In a placebo-controlled, assessor-blinded,
randomized trial, researchers reported on the immediate effects
of upper thoracic spine manual therapy on cardiovascular autonomic control of musculoskeletal pain
patients (ie, back pain, spine pain,
neck pain, etc.). The researchers explained that musculoskeletal
pain intensified the risk of cardiovascular events. (4) Come feel
these benefits of chiropractic treatment based on knowledge
of the spine’s anatomy.
