San Jose Chiropractic Care Helps Back Pain After Back Surgery Surgery and Integrates Extension Exercise into the Treatment Plan
Many San Jose back pain patients choose back surgery expecting San Jose back pain relief. That expectation is not always met. Chiropractic Solutions hears this from San Jose back surgery patients and studies it in the spine research reports. 49-58% relief of pain for sciatica (leg pain) because of a disc herniation is usual. (1) Post-surgical back pain patients may discover that they have back pain after San Jose back surgery. What are some options? Spinal manipulation and exercise is one relieving option. The American College of Physicians and American Pain Society suggest spinal manipulation for low back pain relief. (2) One patient reported 89% improvement with 12 spinal manipulation sessions plus exercise. (3) A study of 69 post-surgical back pain patients treated with Cox® Technic - like they are at Chiropractic Solutions – found that 81% of patients showed at least 50% reduction of pain at the end of 3 months of care. 78.6% of those patients had persistent pain relief at 24 months follow up. (4) San Jose chiropractic relief for post-surgical back pain patients often meets a patient’s expectation of back pain relief. Chiropractic Solutions invites you or a suffering friend or family member to visit today.
Listen to this PODCAST on The Back Doctors’ Podcast with Dr. Michael Johnson in which Dr. David Atiyeh describes a patient who had experienced back surgery expecting pain relief and post-surgically found pain relief with chiropractic Cox® Technic care.
San Jose back pain sufferers frequently find relief by flexing forward just a bit, not flexing backward into extension. (Check out the SPINE article May 2018 on our website about why!) Extension is not all bad. A healthy spine can extend. A healthy spine requires strong back muscles to support all its motions. Strengthening those extensor muscles to prevent San Jose back pain is important. Research reports that lumbar spine extension weakness and extensor muscle deconditioning are found in San Jose chiropractic patients with chronic low back pain. (5) Why? Back muscles degenerate in back pain sufferers like spinal discs degenerate. (6) Add extension exercises into your day when your San Jose chiropractor tells you it is appropriate. Chiropractic Solutions can help!
