NON-DRUG CHIROPRACTIC CARE

In chiropractic, non-pharmacological, non-drug treatment of herniated discs is the goal. The Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain Management has evolved over the past 60+ years to offer hope to the disc herniation patient via a thorough examination, educated diagnosis, and research-based treatment plan that incorporates non-pharmacological care: spinal manipulation, nutrition and exercise. Usually, a patient with a disc herniation is encouraged to start on day one with 3 gentle motion exercises. (Note: Don’t begin until your St Peters chiropractor shows you how to do them!) They are good for your spine, your pain, and your sense of control of the problem. Sp valuable!

EFFECTIVE AND COST-EFFECTIVE TREATMENT OF BACK PAIN

A new comparison study of non-pharmacological, non-drug care versus pharmacological drug care of non-acute low back pain uncovered the benefits of non-pharmacological care. The groups were compared before and after 9 weeks of care. The results showed better improvement in the non-drug group at lower cost. The researchers stated that a non-drug approach could be more effective clinically as well as financially. (1) Back pain patients with disc herniation can take hope in that! Old Mill Chiropractic is well-experienced in the non-drug care of St Peters back pain.
