So, you desire relief for your
back pain to return and enjoy life like “normal”? Back
pain sufferers get that! Wilson Family Chiropractic is well aware of
this, too, and works closely with our Millville back
pain patients and their other healthcare providers to return to “normal,” delighting in life again.
REFERRALS TO CHIROPRACTORS FOR CHRONIC LOW BACK PAIN
A new study noted how general practitioners refer to Danish
chiropractors. Chiropractic clinics with more than one
chiropractor and also offer diagnostic ultrasound obtained
more referrals. 31% of all new patients - 2.5 referrals a
week - in chiropractic offices came via general practitioner referral. Chiropractors who sent
more patients to general practitioners also received
more referrals. Those who shared that they had expertise in
geriatric care and had more new patients a
week got more referrals, too. (1) These findings emphasize
the significance of interprofessional communication
which your Millville chiropractor embraces! Wilson Family Chiropractic
works with local Millville healthcare colleagues in all ways to benefit our mutual back and
neck pain patients in finding relief and reclaiming
their quality of life.
QUALITY OF LIFE WITH CHIROPRACTIC MANIPULATION
Quality of life is often an indication of
how well we feel, especially as we get older. A report of
Medicare recipients who used spinal manipulation (SMT) and/or were prescribed drug therapy (PDT) for their chronic low back pain was very enlightening.
Those who received spinal manipulation were more likely to be very
satisfied with their care: 84% for SMT vs 50% for PDT. Those who received
spinal manipulation documented their health-related quality of
life scores significantly higher than those with prescription drug therapy: 12.85
for SMT vs 9.92 for PDT. As for the concern they felt receiving each type of therapy, SMT
patients receiving chiropractic care stated a lower degree of
concern than the PDT patient receiving prescription therapy. (2) Our goal at Wilson Family Chiropractic is to lower our
Millville back pain patients’ concern over their pain condition and
its care by performing a thorough examination, describing
clearly what the condition is and its expected care outcomes, and performing gentle, relieving
care for back pain, neck pain, and other spine-related pain relief.
