Chiropractic Solutions Cares for Veterans and Locals Alike with Back Pain and Stress
Stress of life and stress of military life are worrying. Chiropractic care offers relieving care to both military and non-military folks correspondingly. New studies focused on the benefits of chiropractic for military veterans uncovered benefits of chiropractic care to which San Jose chiropractic care patients can connect: improvement in pain, strength, and dealing with pain. Chiropractic Solutions is the San Jose chiropractic pain and stress relieving center!
STRESS AND PAIN
Veterans struggle with stress and pain. The VA System is working on addressing veterans’ needs. Medicine is at the front in the VA care system while many veterans are venturing outside that system for additional care. A national study of veterans found that 52% employed complementary and integrated health options to deal with their issues with pain and stress reduction/relaxation on top of the list: 44% massage, 37% chiropractic, 34% mindfulness, 24% other meditation, and 25% yoga. 84% reported they are interested in undertaking at least one of these options: massage, chiropractic, acupressure, reflexology, progressive relaxation, acupressure. They were far more likely to use these beyond the VA System. (1) Veterans are like you! They pursue San Jose chiropractic care outside the routine system at times, too!
HELPING VETERANS REGAIN THEIR STRENGTH
Veterans with back pain like other back pain sufferers find that their strength and quality of life decrease. Chiropractic care can frequently help. Veterans notably suffer with post-traumatic stress disorder which causes difficulties with their pain management care. Chiropractic care within the VA system accounts for such overlying issues. Chiropractors in the VA System will want to carefully diagnose and manage PTSD veterans to ensure they are receiving all the care they need. (2) Your San Jose chiropractor thinks each of our San Jose back pain patients’ other issues in the same way to maximize positive clinical outcomes.
IMPROVING STRENGTH IN LOW BACK PAIN SUFFERING VETERANS
One positive clinical outcome all back pain sufferers want is to perform activities of daily living as they want and need. Back pain is known to reduce ability to daily activities. For veterans, lifting, endurance and balance are key daily activities. Back pain suffering veterans were assigned to chiropractic care or a wait list for four weeks. The chiropractic patients bettered their pulling strength by 5.08 kgs while the wait list group’s pull strength dropped by 7.43 kgs. Trunk muscle endurance, disability, pain intensity and fear avoidance behavior all improved with chiropractic care of active military personnel with low back pain. (3) Plus, after back surgery, some veterans will still hurt and want some relief. 90.3% of VA chiropractors reported seeing at least 1 post-back surgery fusion patient in the past month. (4) Chiropractic care for post-surgical continued pain is showing itself to be beneficial. Chiropractic Solutions uses such pain decrasing, strength growing care for San Jose back pain sufferers, too!
