PAIN AFTER BACK SURGERY: CHIROPRACTIC REHAB AND CARE HELP

Research states that those who take advantage of rehabilitation after back disc surgery have better treatment outcomes in the year following the back surgery. They go back to work. (1) Some back surgery patients do not undergo rehabilitation by choice or by not being told to do so. For those who experience continued pain after back surgery (also known as “failed back surgical syndrome”), La Grande chiropractic Cox Technic spinal manipulation care may help relieve the pain without further surgery. A study of 69 post-surgical continued pain patients visiting a chiropractor using Cox Technic reports that 81% of these patients acquired greater than 50% pain relief in 11 visits over a 49-day period of active care. (2) That can be enough relief to return 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 undergoing back pain post-back surgery, Paulette Hugulet, DC, LLC can help with gentle, research-documented, La Grande chiropractic care and treatment.

TIP OF THE MONTH: Exercise and Nutrition for Your Discs

Exercise is good for the nutrition of your spinal discs! The discs are made up of glycosaminoglycans which are comprised of chondroitin sulfate, dermatan sulfate, glucosamine sulfate. Researchers explain that physical exercise does not deplete glycosaminoglycans; exercise enhances their concentration even in overtraining situations. (3) Plus performing some muscle strengthening activities twice a week reduces your odds of low back pain. (4) Talk with Paulette Hugulet, DC, LLC about chondroitin sulfate supplementation and exercise as accompaniments to your La Grande chiropractic treatment plan for your disc’s health and healing!
