When I check into a hotel for a conference, the conversation
often goes like this:
Front desk staff: “So what are you here for?”
Me: “I’m a chiropractor from Tonawanda attending a
meeting.”
Front desk staff: “Oh! My neck is
killing me!”
Your Tonawanda chiropractor enjoys
this and could talk back pain and neck pain all day long!
Tonawanda chiropractic patients at Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation know this for sure. Your Tonawanda chiropractor embraces
the reputation as the Tonawanda back pain specialist.
Being a primary spine practitioner is so exciting and inviting!
Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation understands back pain and neck pain, is a specialty
clinic for spine pain patients, and isn’t reluctant
at all about telling everyone in
Tonawanda.
BEING THE PRIMARY SPINE PRACTITIONER
You’ve heard of the Gallup Poll. A consultant
for Gallup teamed up with the Palmer College of Chiropractic for
a study that revealed that 78% of American adults would prefer
to use a non-drug option over a prescription medication to cope with
pain like low back or neck pain. Those same adults thought
physical therapy and chiropractic care as quite effective and safe
when compared to pain meds. Aaron Carroll MD writes for the New York Times, and
in a blog post called “For Bad Backs, It’s Time to Rethink Biases about
Chiropractors,” he emphasized how bad the opioid crisis is in
the US and that evidence-based non-drug approaches like
spinal manipulation are rational
options. (1) Chiropractic identity researchers wrote
that chiropractic is seen by society as a profession of health
care providers who are specialists in spine care as their
education, scope of practice, and educational accrediting and testing revolve
around spine care. (2) In one study 61.4% of US adults expressed
that chiropractic care successfully
relieved neck and back pain. 52.6% believed
chiropractors were trustworthy. (3) Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation understands
this. Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation grasps that Tonawanda back pain
and neck pain patients find relief with the
Tonawanda chiropractic care and then count on
Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation to point them in other healthy approaches to
control their back pain conditions and enhance their health and
spine to avert future unpleasant health and/or spinal
pain issues.
BENEFITS OF PRIMARY SPINE PRACTITIONERS
Specially educated to care for patients with
spinal disease, primary spine practitioners play many tasks:
diagnose, rule out serious pathology (cancer, fracture, infection, etc.), give
evidence-based care like spinal manipulation, manual therapy, rehab/exercise,
education about the condition, counseling to help the back pain sufferer accept
the condition and its outcome expectations as well as commit to its treatment plan, and organize
all aspects of care (imaging, injections, surgery if/when
needed). (4) It’s an extensive job with lots
of responsibility! It’s just the role
your Tonawanda chiropractor embraces! What do
Tonawanda back pain sufferers wants? Consumers desire
access to non-drug therapies supplied by spine care
experts like chiropractors first. Such access helps
in a few ways. One is increasing the value of
spine care delivery. Two is helping deal with the primary care
shortage. (1,5) Three is reducing the cost of care. (6) Four is
potentially reining in the opioid epidemic. The American
College of Physicians’ recommendations for back pain sufferers specifically state
that opioids are the last option behind non-pharmacological treatment options
like spinal manipulation, exercise, acupuncture, etc. (7) Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation is
here to do its part to help.
