Touch is Part of Chiropractic Solutionss Relieving Back Pain Care
For all the news of artificial intelligence and the future of robots and computers in our lives, the benefit of human touch cannot be replaced. Chiropractic is a hands-on profession. Chiropractic Solutions offers hands-on San Jose chiropractic care. Chiropractic has a long history of effective manual manipulation and treatment for back pain, neck pain and related extremity pain. Touch can’t be dismissed in its influence on healing and is not ignored by your San Jose chiropractor as your pain-relieving treatment plan is established beginning with day one’s exam and throughout the entire treatment process.
TOUCH IN THE DOCTOR PATIENT REALM
Touch in the relationship between doctor and patient is important. A recent report states that touch can produce neuromodulatory effects to reduce pain and reduce}decrease patient anxiety about the pain. Researchers stated that the effect of touch begins with the confident handshake and continues through the physical examination, particularly when the examining physician touches the area the patient indicates is painful. This confirms to the patient that the doctor comprehends the patient’s pain. Touch also influences treatment for manual and manipulative treating physicians. (1) The impact of touch can’t be negated. Your San Jose chiropractor at Chiropractic Solutions knows this to be true and sees its effect daily and is happy to see its importance discussed in the medical literature for manual therapy’s beneficial role in the health care system for conditions like San Jose back pain, neck pain, arm pain, and sciatic leg pain.
EFFECT OF TOUCH
A researcher commented on a leading study’s outcomes regarding the effect of spinal manipulation and exercise for back pain relief: “the data are compatible with a non-specific effect caused by touch.” (2) Science seeks to quantify just how human touch affects back pain relief. Until that is done, chiropractic physicians like your San Jose chiropractor will embrace the effect of touch as they provide spinal manipulation with their hands.
San Jose CHIROPRACTIC TOUCH
Chiropractors depend on their sense of touch in providing the appropriate forces to the spine, forces that deliver pain relief for the back pain and neck pain patient. It takes experience to really refine the proper force application. Today, though, technology may help with this as force-feedback systems are helping doctors achieve that key experience. With the chiropractic technique system used at Chiropractic Solutions, research has reported just what those proper, pain-relieving forces are. (3,4) Force-measuring equipment has been created and incorporated into teaching and daily-use chiropractic tables. (As a bonus, in performing the research study to assess forces with patients, no serious adverse effects were produced. “First, do no harm.”) (5,6) The Cox® Technic flexion distraction procedures used at Chiropractic Solutions are documented, gentle, and efficient for reducing pain and dropping intradiscal pressures (7,8). That is a chiropractic treatment outcome arrangement our San Jose chiropractic patients want.
