DON’T FEAR! BE CONFIDENT WITH YOUR SPINE.
Chiropractors see fear
avoidance every day. Minster back pain sufferers avoid
lifting or worry about using their spines for things
like lifting out of fear of (re)injury and pain. Researchers state that chronic
low back pain patients are inclined to protect their spines by lifting
utilizing a diminished lumbar spine range of motion. Doing
this for a long stretch of time may end up hurting more than
helping. The lumbar spine tissues may encounter extra
loading due to altered spine motion. (1) Fear-avoidance is a natural response in back pain patients. Don’t
feel weird if you do this for a while! Within our
Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain
Management, we encourage our back pain patients to get back to normal spinal motions gradually as their pain decreases
and their exercise routine strengthens their spines via Minster chiropractic
treatment, exercise, and nutrition. Minster Chiropractic Center and you will get there
together! Minster Chiropractic Center is your partner in controlling back pain, so it does
not control you.
Listen to this PODCAST
with Dr. Clint Dickason on The
Back Doctors Podcast with Dr. Michael Johnson as he explains
his care of a nurse with back pain and sciatic leg pain using the Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain
Management to help her get back to doing the activities
of daily life and her job, like bending, lifting and
twisting.
Minster CHIROPRACTIC TIP OF THE MONTH: CURCUMIN FOR CHRONIC PAIN RELIEF AND
IMPROVED COGNITION
Cognitive impairment is seen
in patients with chronic neuropathic pain. A new study on the
effects of curcumin describes improvement in cognitive impairment
and lessening of chronic pain due to compressed
sciatic nerves in rats. Curcumin is reported to ease
chronic constriction injury related behaviors and memory deficits by lowering
inflammatory cytokines. (2) Sciatica
is irritation of the sciatic nerve causing leg pain. If
you have sciatica, do you notice issues with cognition? Curcumin’s
anti-inflammatory properties are something to be thought about
in the nutritional approach to chronic pain and Minster sciatic leg
pain. Minster Chiropractic Center does!
