Montreal Chiropractic and Manipulation Ease and Keep Pain At Bay
“An apple a day…” Everyone can finish that saying! Access to chiropractic and spinal manipulation for Montreal back pain and neck pain sufferers is said to do the same. Access just needs to be as easy as access to apples! According to research, chiropractic and spinal manipulation relieve pain and reduce the need for escalated treatments and tests when they are clearly accessible to back and neck pain sufferers. (Even dogs were helped by veterinary chiropractic spinal manipulation!) Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic offers gentle spinal manipulation via a well-explained chiropractic treatment plan.
CHIROPRACTIC CARE AND SPINAL MANIPULATION AND BACK PAIN MANAGEMENT
Spinal manipulation is a primary treatment at Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic for good reason! A rat study regarding the effect of manipulation and mobilization and sham treatment on lessening neuroinflammation in acute lumbar radiculopathy (leg pain) demonstrated that manipulation and mobilization did a better job of relieving pain. Manipulation was a bit faster in providing relief and halting severe radiculopathy. (1) Spinal manipulation and mobilization are prominent treatments at Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic for back pain and radiculopathy. We are here for you as soon as you bring your back pain and/or leg pain to us! Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic also knows that our Montreal chiropractic patients are excited to receive in-office care but not always as excited to do their at-home care. They are not alone! 89% of chiropractic patients told researcher they went to their appointments. That’s the easier part! 82% said their chiropractor’s recommendations for treatment and at-home care (stretching and exercise) were understandable, but only 44% of them actually followed through in doing the at-home care. (2) We know it is tough to make time at home, and we’ll continue doing our best at every visit to treat your spinal condition…and encourage you to do yours!
SPINAL MANIPULATION AND ACCESS TO CHIROPRACTIC REDUCED NEED FOR MORE ADVANCED CARE
Researchers wondered just how access to chiropractic affected medical care for older adults with spinal pain. In an analysis of Medicare claims for 39,278 older adult chiropractic users, less access to chiropractic care increased the use of medical services (primary care physician visits and spine surgeries) for spine pain conditions. The researchers likened this to an additional cost of $114,967 per 1000 beneficiaries ($391 million nationally). (3) That’s a lot of money and suffering. Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic makes itself accessible to our Montreal spine pain sufferers! Additionally, 42% of neck pain patients get escalated treatments like imaging, injection, emergency room, surgery. Neck pain patients managed with spinal manipulation – 90% of which is delivered by chiropractors in the US – were less likely to undergo escalated care. Only 26% of spinal manipulation patients went on to escalated care whereas 46% of neck pain sufferers who sought other types of care did. Their risk of treatment escalation was double.

EVEN DOGS BENEFIT FROM CHIROPRACTIC TREATMENT
There are chiropractic colleagues who also are skilled at doing spinal manipulation on animals! Interesting! Some dog breeds like boxers tend to acquire spondylosis deformans, a spinal disease distinguished by disc degeneration and bone spurs. A study of boxer puppies from 8 weeks old to one year of age compared puppies treated with veterinary chiropractic each month to same aged boxers not treated with chiropractic. At a year old, the treated puppies were found to have spondylosis significantly less (only 25% were found to have it on imaging) than the the control puppies (46.5% had it on imaging). This suggests that veterinary chiropractic treatment may beneficially lessen the probably of young boxers getting spondylosis.
