Chiropractic Solutions Relieves Chronic Neck and Back Pain

“How many times do I have to see you, doc?” A common question for your San Jose chiropractor. Chiropractic care at Chiropractic Solutions follows an evidence-based algorithm of care backed by clinical research that goes back to the 1970’s: The Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain Management. Recent research confirms the system and its goals in which San Jose chiropractic patients can find peace as they heal.

CHIROPRACTIC USE

San Jose chiropractic patients wouldn’t be chiropractic patients if it didn’t produce beneficial results. The latest study of who utilizes chiropractic was completed in Malaysia: 35% of Malayasians utilized chiropractic. Though it was very lower than traditional and complementary medicine care usage there, it is a good number! (1) Approximately 25% of U.S. residents pursued chiropractic for back and neck pain management. 35 million U.S. adults went to a chiropractor in the past year. (2) That number is growing as more people pursue and find a non-surgical, conservative approach to pain relief in chiropractic understanding that it may take a few visits to obtain relief. Chiropractic Solutions is committed to setting a realistic treatment plan for optimal outcome.

RECENT RESEARCH RESULTS OF CHIROPRACTIC CARE AT 3 MONTHS

Wondering how many chiropractic visits patients use and the outcomes? A recent study found that in 1,362 chronic low back pain patients and 1,214 chronic neck pain patients’ function improved and back and neck pain reduced with chiropractic care in 3 months. Those who reported worse pain initially went for more chiropractic visits. Chronic low back pain sufferers with more than one visit a week benefitted more. At 3 months, chronic neck and back pain patients were getting better slowly, may have even reached maximum improvement, and were quite possibly managing their chronic pain using a range of chiropractic visit frequencies. (3) That’s our goal, too, at Chiropractic Solutions: educate our San Jose back pain and neck pain patients about how they can support themselves with pain management and prevention! With Cox® Technic, 29 days and 12 visits were the mean days and visits to improvement in a study of 1000 patients. Disc herniations took a bit longer and needed more visits than sprain/strains. (4) Chiropractic Solutions presents statistics like this to assist our chiropractic patients make realistic expectations.

REALISTIC EXPECTATIONS WITH CHIROPRACTIC CARE

San Jose chronic neck and back pain sufferers are realistic. Despite health policy today that seems to pursue a cure for whatever is wrong, most chronic spine pain patients seek pain management that they understand will require ongoing care rather than “cure” from their chiropractic care. (5) Cox® Technic implemented at Chiropractic Solutions has always presented the notion of “control not cure” when it comes to most neck pain and back pain issues. It resonates with back pain and neck pain sufferers who have looked for care from a variety of different providers that they “get” it. The 50% Rule of Cox® Technic makes sense to them: 50% relief in 30 days or referral for imaging or other consultation, 50% relief decreases the visit frequency by 50%, 50% relief changes the treatment from Protocol I to Protocol II, etc. The chiropractic care system of Cox® Technic follows an established algorithm that provides patients realistic expectations.
