Old Mill Chiropractics October 2017 Healthy Newsletter
St Peters knee pain is a pain that Old Mill Chiropractic sees often. Pain medications and surgical options abound while a new non-surgical chiropractic approach is supplying quite promising results. Principles of Cox® Technic flexion distraction and decompression - a technique used in clinic all the time for St Peters back pain and neck pain relief - were amended for use with knee pain. They are shown to be of help in lessening knee pain. Overall, knee pain patients’ mean pain scores fell from 7.7 to 1.8 on a 10 point scale with 10 being the worst pain in a mean of 5.3 visits over 3 weeks. In particular, acute knee pain patients’ pain scores dropped more dramatically from a mean of 8.1 to 1.1 in 4.8 treatments in 2.4 weeks. Chronic knee pain patients’ scores fell from 7.5 to 2.2 in 5.4 treatments in 3.3 weeks. None of the patients reported any adverse side-effects. (1) It's gentle, relieving, and comfortable. Listen to a PODCAST by the author of this paper about his clinical experience in treating knee pain. This is an exciting addition to Old Mill Chiropractic’s St Peters chiropractic care! St Peters knee pain sufferers are welcomed to feel this gentle, relieving St Peters knee pain treatment!
St Peters CHIROPRACTIC TIP OF THE MONTH: Strengthen the Hip Abductors
We all can benefit from stronger hip abductors, and St Peters elder folks gain even more. A recent article states that people with chronic low back pain typically have hip abductor weakness, too. (Old Mill Chiropractic concurs as these two are seen frequently in this St Peters chiropractic practice.) A simple series of hip abductor exercises helped reduce pain and improve function in a group of older chronic low back pain sufferers. (2) Easy! Old Mill Chiropractic will give you some hip strengthening exercises you can do at home alongside the St Peters chiropractic spinal manipulation with Cox Technic in office to experience such relief yourself.
