A new year. A new goal. We all set ourselves up for something new in a new year. For Minster back pain sufferers, a decrease in back pain is a reasonable goal with Minster Chiropractic Center by your side.

Start 2024 off right with Minster Chiropractic Center’s assistance for back pain relief! We have lots of effective chiropractic services.
BACK PAIN RELIEF RECOMMENDATIONS
They run the gamut. Minster Chiropractic Center hears about them all the time. Everyone from friends, family members, researchers, doctors, others, have thoughts and stories. In light of the variability of back pain care recommendations, researchers suggest that the standardization of back pain care - exercise, spinal manipulation and opioid prescriptions – that may benefit back pain sufferers optimally. (1) We agree. We read the research and mingle it with our clinical experience to develop an individualized treatment plan for our back pain patients. With the expected growth of low back pain through 2050 – from 619 million people globally to more than 800 million (2) – effective, research-documented, non-drug, non-surgical choices for back pain are welcome, particularly ones that are tested and documented to be beneficial. A new paper was just published regarding the care for a specific type of back pain - continued back pain after back surgery also called failed back surgery syndrome (FBSS) - that often develops into continued or increased opioid pain medication use. The study stated that FBSS patients treated with Cox® Flexion Distraction Decompression Manipulation reported decreased or discontinued use of opioids during an initial 3-month course of treatment. (3) That’s an encouraging outcome of a treatment approach to incorporate into the standardized back pain treatment recommendations!
SPECIFIC RECOMMENDATIONS
So what can our Minster chiropractic patients do to control their back pain and its impact on their lives? Sleep. Keep active. Undergo spinal manipulation. Feedback from 2333 back pain sufferers listed that additional sleep, less sedentariness, and more moderate to vigorous intensity physical activity was beneficial. The authors described an example of how swapping 30 minutes of sedentary behavior for 30 minutes of sleep decreased low back pain frequency odds by 5% and pain intensity by 2%. Sleep is important! (4) So too is a visit to the Minster chiropractor for spinal manipulation as recommended in the guidelines published by the American College of Physicians and The American Pain Society as having good evidence of effectiveness for low back pain along with exercise, CBT, and rehabilitation. (5) Minster Chiropractic Center is experienced in providing gentle, safe spinal manipulation via Cox® Technic protocols, designing a simple exercise plan, and recommending therapy and/or more advance rehab as necessary or wanted. Trust us to help! Our Minster back pain patients are in good hands.
