Osteoarthritis, knee or hip, may join low back pain to
make some of us uncomfortable. Lumbar
spinal stenosis is a particular spinal condition that is growing as the population ages. Its symptoms often appear with other osteoarthritic conditions and stenosis symptoms.
Wilson Family Chiropractic offers pain relieving Millville
chiropractic care for spine pain relief for spinal stenosis and other spine
pain conditions.
THE COMBINATION: Back Pain and Osteoarthritis
Recent research related that 15% of
knee and 23% of knee osteoarthritic patients also experienced lumbar
spinal stenosis symptoms. They both experienced improvements in knee
or hip associated pain, function and quality of life when they underwent a patient education and exercise program. So what brings about relief for these patients? Research study after
research study states that exercise therapy likely enhances
patient outcomes for patients with knee or hip osteoarthritis while no one type
is said to be better than the others. (1,2,3,4) Wilson Family Chiropractic includes
spinal manipulation to enhance the Millville chiropractic care
and clinical outcomes.
TREATMENT FOR BACK PAIN AND OSTEOARTHRITIS
Not startling to any of our
current Millville chiropractic patients, hands-on spinal manipulation
is central to our treatment plan. A study of conservative
treatment of low back pain due to lumbar spinal
stenosis stated that incorporating flexion
distraction spinal manipulation produced a more
significant reduction in pain and disability scores. (5) Another
study using a Cox® flexion distraction changed
treatment of knee pain and osteoarthritis documented a mean decrease
in VAS (visual analog scale 0-10)-patient reported pain scores from 7.7 to 1.8 in
5.3 treatments in 3 weeks. This study documented clinical
improvement for patients with knee pain. (6) Pain relief is our goal here at Wilson Family Chiropractic
and is most likely yours as well!
