ADDING St Peters CHIROPRACTIC CARE

At one health center that incorporated chiropractic care into their services, a chronic pain patient with an extensive history of pain found relief when chiropractic care was added to her overall care approach. Most recently, she suffered with neck and back pain after a car accident 3 years earlier. Additionally, she had knee pain and pain due to over 20 surgeries in her lifetime, depression, opioid dependence, and minimal quality of life. At 6 months of chiropractic care which incorporated manipulation for neck and back pain as well as nutrition and exercise suggestions, she reported improvement in pain and quality of life as well as discontinuation of opioid pain medications.

Old Mill Chiropractic enjoys being a part of St Peters chiropractic patients’ joy when this occurs.

GETTING St Peters CHIROPRACTIC CARE REGULARLY

Though third-party payers want to limit coverage for chiropractic care, seeing a chiropractor on a more frequent basis for “maintenance care” is effective. A new study compared patients who got chiropractic care for bothersome low back pain regularly to those who received chiropractic care just when symptoms bothered them. Chiropractic care on a regular basis was more effective in reducing the overall number of days in a year that patients had bothersome low back pain. Yes, these patients had more chiropractic visits, but they reported less back pain. The researchers recommended that maintenance care be considered a low back pain prevention option.
