Minster Chiropractic Centers September 2017 Healthy Newsletter

Research states that those who undergo rehabilitation after back disc surgery experience better treatment outcomes in the year following the back surgery. They go back to work. (1) Some back surgery patients don’t undergo rehabilitation by choice or by not being told to do it. For those who experience continued pain after back surgery (also known as “failed back surgical syndrome”), Minster chiropractic Cox Technic spinal manipulation care may help ease the pain without further surgical intervention. A study of 69 post-surgical continued pain patients seeking care from a chiropractor using Cox Technic finds that 81% of these patients achieved more than 50% pain relief in 11 visits over a 49-day period of active care. (2) That can be adequate relief to allow these patients to enjoy their lives again! If you, a loved one or a friend did not do any rehab work after back surgery and/or are experiencing back pain post-back surgery, Minster Chiropractic Center can help with gentle, research-documented, Minster chiropractic care and treatment.

Exercise is good for the nutritional state of your spinal discs! The discs are comprised of glycosaminoglycans which are made chondroitin sulfate, dermatan sulfate, glucosamine sulfate. Researchers describe that physical exercise doesn’t lessen glycosaminoglycans; exercise increases their concentration even in overtraining situations. (3) Plus doing some muscle strengthening activities twice a week reduces your odds of low back pain. (4) Talk with Minster Chiropractic Center about chondroitin sulfate supplementation and exercise as additions to your Minster chiropractic treatment plan for your disc’s health and healing!
