How great it would be to take a
pill – or even better: a combination of pills! - and have your
La Grande back pain or neck pain go away
immediately? You are not alone! Paulette Hugulet, DC, LLC can understand.
Pain upsets our flow. Back pain keeps many
La Grande back pain sufferers from working and from playing and from
doing activities of daily living that must be done (dressing, cooking,
walking, doing laundry, etc.). When back pain bothers you or someone
close to you, come to Paulette Hugulet, DC, LLC for relief and chiropractic
advice regarding pain management without
drugs when or if drugs are not doing what you need or are not in
your treatment plan.
NOT CLEARLY SUPPORTED: DRUG COMBINATIONS
Having drugs in the treatment plan may work for some back pain sufferers and not others. Pills may deliver
relief for a few hours, days, weeks, months or not any.
A new Cochrane Review, one of the most highly regarded
medical review systems in the world, reported that a drug combination,
though possibly better for more pain relief, for low back pain and
sciatica is not supported. There is no clear evidence, as a matter of fact
there is a shortage of studies and overall low quality of evidence,
that backs drug combinations for low back
pain and sciatica. Further, the risk of adverse effects is lower
with single drug therapy over a combination. (1) Have you had
a let-down from prescribed medications for your back pain? It’s fine.
Paulette Hugulet, DC, LLC cares for back pain patients
like you.
RECOMMENDED: SPINAL MANIPULATION
Paulette Hugulet, DC, LLC’s use of the Cox® Technic System of Spinal
Pain Management which integrates a specialized
type of spinal manipulation has helped countless
La Grande back pain sufferers obtain relief of their back pain. Spinal manipulation is advocated
as first line treatment of back pain by the American College of Physicians and the
American Board of Family Physicians. (2) Cox® Technic has been
shown in federally funded spinal research studies to drop
intradiscal pressures, widen the intervertebral canal area, and increase
disc height. (3,4) In
clinical studies, Cox® Technic has shown that back pain
relief happens in 29 days and 12 visits. Of course, more severe disc
herniations and spinal stenosis may take more time than these
averages, but relief comes. (5) For many back pain sufferers, 50%
relief would be most welcome. How about you?
RESEARCH SUPPORTED: CHONDROITIN SULFATE, TURMERIC AND CURCUMIN
To boost the relief and help
our La Grande back pain patients, Paulette Hugulet, DC, LLC integrates
supplements into the La Grande chiropractic treatment plan. Natural
substances like spinal disc-supporting chondroitin sulfate – shown to have “genuine
anti-inflammatory properties (6) - and back pain-relieving turmeric and
curcumin come in handy in the short-term
as well as long term. Paulette Hugulet, DC, LLC is prepared to help you find
the right combination of treatment approaches to decrease
your back pain.
