The Plainville spine pain practitioner guides treatment toward back and neck pain relief in an organized, collaborative fashion.

YOUR CHIROPRACTIC SPINE PAIN PRACTITIONER: Reduce Pain, Reduce Opioid Prescription Fills, Improve Quality of Life

Chiropractic care is hands-on care valued by clients for its non-pharmacologic and non-surgical foundation. In a healthcare system that is structured for the integration of non-pharmacologic treatment modalities including chiropractic – the Veteran’s Healthcare Administration – usual medical care plus chiropractic care for patients with low back pain was reported as beneficial. There was a significant difference in the results of usual medical care versus usual medical care plus chiropractic care in higher quality of life scoring as well as pain-related disability with chiropractic care. (1) In the Medicare system, older beneficiaries with spinal pain who used chiropractic care were at significantly lower risk – 56% lower – of filling an opioid prescription. (2) Since 2011, a new role to deal with spine-related pain, back pain, radiculopathy, etc., was offered, the Primary Spine Practitioner. Integrating such care into the healthcare system is aimed to enhance effectiveness and value of care because high costs and poor outcomes are familiar in spine care. (3) Your Plainville chiropractor at Layden Chiropractic knows the spine, the conservative care of its pain, and the value of working with other healthcare practitioners to get you the pain relief we all desire for you! Your Plainville chiropractor is your hands-on spine pain practitioner!

Listen to this PODCAST with Dr. Robert Borzone on The Back Doctors Podcast with Dr. Michael Johnson as he details relieving treatment of back pain with the Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain Management that prompted a patient to lessen her consumption of pain medication as she felt less and less pain.

Layden Chiropractic presents a new study highlighting the benefit of adding at-home exercise to in-office treatment for neck pain relief.

Plainville CHIROPRACTIC TIP OF THE MONTH: ADD AT-HOME EXERCISE

Blending efforts, whether it is it between your healthcare providers or between your at-home care and your in-office treatment, is beneficial. In dealing with back pain or neck pain, mixing treatment at the office with exercise at home is helpful. The latest report of such a combination stated that four 20-minute sessions of manual therapy and exercise plus an at-home exercise program was more effective than without manual therapy for neck pain sufferers. Their range of motion improved as did their neck disability and pain intensity. (4) Plainville back pain and neck pain patients report further benefit when they are involved in their care.
