Mind-body-SPINE connection. The mind-body connection is in
the health news a lot. Being a member of the chiropractic profession,
Paulette Hugulet, DC, LLC adds “spine” to this connection, making
it much more specific to what we see in our La Grande
back pain and neck pain patients. When the spine hurts, the mind and body can’t
help but hurt, too. Paulette Hugulet, DC, LLC designs individualized La Grande
chiropractic treatment plans for spine pain, back pain, neck pain and related
arm and leg pain sufferers that include chiropractic
treatment, nutrition, and home exercise. The
addition of mindfulness practices to these spine care
practices is many times beneficial and encouraged.
MIND-BODY-SPINE PAIN
Spine pain, back pain, neck pain tires a
person. Pain often holds a sufferer back
from doing what he or she wants/needs to do and from experiencing
a joyful life. When working with your La Grande
chiropractor at Paulette Hugulet, DC, LLC on the physical pain relief, a back pain sufferer
can take a mindful approach to dealing with the mind and its struggle with the pain and related
depression and/or fluctuating levels of sadness is found
to be helpful. In a study of lumbar disc herniation patients
with back pain who utlilized a mindfulness-based therapy, researchers discovered
that mindfulness-based treatment had a good effect
on pain beliefs and psychological well-being. (1) Additionally,
researchers found that even in countries with well-developed and accessible mental health services,
those services are not
well-utilized. Use is better than it once was
with all the attention mental health has received lately. Many do not seek it out as they could. One curious
note about those who do seek help stemmed from their knowing
someone with a mental health issue which positively influenced
them to seek help for their own issue. (2) Whether you know someone who suffers
with a mental health issue or not, do not avoid pursuing assistance with depression related to
La Grande back pain. Today, there are many options to
get support for pain-related depression. Paulette Hugulet, DC, LLC offers
evidence-based treatment via the Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain
Management to deal with the physical part of spine
pain and encourages our La Grande back pain sufferers to consider utilizing
a mindfulness practice to deal with the mind’s mental aspect
of spine pain.
