Touch is Part of Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinics Relieving Back Pain Care
There’s talk of artificial intelligence and the future of robots and computers in our lives, the benefit of human touch can’t be supplanted. Chiropractic is a hands-on profession. Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic delivers hands-on Montreal chiropractic care. Chiropractic has an extensive history of valuable manual manipulation and treatment for back pain, neck pain and related extremity pain. Touch cannot be ignored in its influence on healing and isn’t ignored by your Montreal chiropractor as your pain-relieving treatment plan is implemented beginning with day one’s exam and extending through the entire treatment process.
TOUCH IN THE DOCTOR PATIENT REALM
Touch in the doctor-patient relationship is important. A recent study documents that touch can initiate neuromodulatory effects to ease pain and reduce}decrease patient anxiety about the pain. Researchers stated that the effect of touch starts with the confident handshake and extends through the physical examination, particularly when the physician doing the exam touches the spot the patient says is painful. This confirms to the patient that the doctor understands the patient’s pain. Touch also influences treatment for manual and manipulative treating physicians. (1) The effect of touch can’t be refuted. Your Montreal chiropractor at Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic recognizes that this is true and sees its effect daily and is happy to see its importance discussed in the medical literature for manual therapy’s beneficial role in the health care system for conditions like Montreal back pain, neck pain, arm pain, and sciatic leg pain.
EFFECT OF TOUCH
A researcher remarked on an influential study’s outcomes regarding the effect of spinal manipulation and exercise for back pain relief: “the data are compatible with a non-specific effect caused by touch.” (2) Human touch has an effect that science tries to quantify. Until then, chiropractic physicians like your Montreal chiropractor will welcome the effect of touch as they deliver spinal manipulation with their hands.
Montreal CHIROPRACTIC TOUCH
Chiropractors depend on their sense of touch in providing the proper forces to the spine, forces that deliver pain relief for the back pain and neck pain patient. It takes experience to really refine the proper force application. Today, though, technology may be helpful with this as force-feedback systems are assisting doctors gain that key experience. With the chiropractic technique system used at Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic, research has reported just what those appropriate, pain-relieving forces are. (3,4) Force-measuring equipment has been created and incorporated into teaching and daily-use chiropractic tables. (As an extra, in performing the research study to assess forces with patients, no serious adverse effects were documented. “First, do no harm.”) (5,6) The Cox® Technic flexion distraction procedures used at Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic are documented, gentle, and effective for easing pain and dropping intradiscal pressures (7,8). That is a chiropractic treatment outcome combination our Montreal chiropractic patients seek.
