Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic Helps Back Pain Patients Manage Their Back Pain

June 23, 2021

Chiropractic’s goal is to give the back pain patient a sense of control over the back pain and to live through the pain and not avoid life. That’s also the goal of your Montreal chiropractor: gentle, pain-relieving, conservative care of spine pain. It’s a partnership involving the Montreal back pain sufferer, the back pain care giver, and even the back pain payer (ie Medicare).

CHIROPRACTIC ENTHUSIASM FOR THE ROLE OF BACK PAIN PROVIDER

Being a chiropractor is the best! A new survey found that chiropractors like yours at Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic enjoy their profession most as they are capable to decrease pain as well as increase strength, flexibility, and power with their patients via a comprehensive treatment plan. Two of the best features of being a chiropractor were marked as “being trained to diagnose”the basis for quality care and desirable clinical outcomes! -  and “being able to transform peoples’ quality of life.” (1) Your Montreal chiropractor agrees! Being your healthcare partner - your back pain specialist - especially in managing spine pain issues is the best part of daily practice.

EFFECT OF HEALTHCARE PROVIDER AVAILABILITY: MD/Surgeon, DC, PCP

Researchers wondered how a community’s healthcare workforce influenced the care of low back pain sufferers. They discovered that one new spine surgeon increased non-conservative care episodes by 31.3 per 1000 older adults, the increase of one primary care physician reduced 2.5 conservative care episodes per 1000 older adults, and the addition of one chiropractor increased 18.7 conservative care episodes and subtracted 3.6 non-conservative care episodes per 1000 mature adults. The researchers acknowledge certain limitations in their study as they extracted a certain group of patients from the 16 million Medicare Part B enrollees (who reported at least one occurrence of low back pain and relocation) which left 402,372 persons in the analysis set. (2) In the Medicare population, healthcare provider availability impacts how much is spent on each beneficiary. The effect is altered by provider type and whether the provider availability increases or decreases. Spine surgeon availability was most strongly linked with higher spending. The loss of one spine surgeon in a community reduced spending. (3) In Montreal, back pain sufferers get a partner at Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic who can guide them with in-office care as well as at-home self-care.

EFFECT OF BACK PAIN PATIENT SELF CARE

Medicine is recognizing that the one who is really at the center of managing pain and chronic disorders is the person dealing with pain and chronic disorder. When back pain is the chronic issue, the low back pain sufferer self-manages much of the time anyway and wants suggestions about how best to do that: when to request more care (symptoms, imaging, advice), how to handle pain (behavioral changes to handle and prevent pain), and how to be confident in managing their pain independently. These all take guidance from clinicians regarding education about the condition and the collaboration of the patient and the healthcare provider. (4) Montreal back pain sufferers and their healthcare providers like your chiropractor at Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic must work on how each sees back pain management to most advantageously help the patient!
