Healthy living. How do you define
that? Do you embrace it? What are healthy living behaviors? Paulette Hugulet, DC, LLC is all about
healthy living. Paulette Hugulet, DC, LLC sees chiropractic care as a healthy behavior! La Grande chiropractic patients can expect
their La Grande chiropractor to be a guide to the
healthy lifestyle behaviors that can not only help them cope
with current spine pain issues but also avent
future episodes of spine pain, neck pain, and back pain, and other
health issues that are best prevented.
HEALTHY BEHAVIORS
What are some healthy behaviors? A good
diet. Exercise. Non-smoking. Low/No alcohol intake. Those sound
about right, do they not? A recent
study proved that men who took advantage of
more of these healthy choices had decreased possibility
of long duration low back pain and women for neck pain. (1) Eating
fruit and vegetables is an additional positive
healthy behavior. This in addition to the other behaviors appeared to decrease the risk
of developing long term troubling low
back pain in women and even potentially improve
the prognosis of low back pain relief. (2) Taking part in a
community based musculoskeletal physiotherapy program enhances
the health-related quality of life for patients. (3) Utilizing
a lumbar support belt improves postural control
when standing on unstable ground. This may be especially
helpful for patients with non-specific low back pain as they
are prone to be more unsteady. (4) Paulette Hugulet, DC, LLC works with our La Grande back pain patients on their balance and proprioception to help improve their steadiness.
CARE CHOICE
Choice of care for health care
issues results in more healthy behaviors. When
patients are given the opportunity to choose their provider for back
pain or neck pain relief (in one study: physical therapy care), costs were less
than if they sought care from their medical doctor first and were
referred. Direct access results in a difference in costs and
outcomes. (5) A study of women and their choices of providers for back pain
relief reports that their familiarity with
the doctor’s treatment, social network endorsements, how close they were to the doctor’s office, and credentials of
the doctor influenced
their choice. (6)
