May 16, 2017

Geriatric back pain patients find relief with combined chiropractic care: spinal manipulation and mobilization plus exercise. That is what new best practices guidelines recommend. Shocked? Of course not! Your Montreal chiropractor takes care of your spine, and you treat your spine! Together, your Montreal chiropractor and you the Montreal back pain sufferer form a great spine care team. Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic is your local Montreal chiropractic care center where Montreal back pain patients meet their Montreal chiropractor to set a treatment plan to relieve pain as well as a plan to prevent future back pain.

A recent high-level research review restates that spinal manipulation is a safe way to relieve back pain in older adults. Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic values this confirmation! How did they do this? The systematic review of all published articles over a 7 year period updated current recommendations. Thirty-seven panelists contributed to this best practices guidelinesreview and update. Conclusively, they reached agreement on current statements regarding the best practices for chiropractic care of back pain in older adults. They reinforced the existing statement about the safety of spinal manipulation for these patients. The panel added two supplementary recommendations that (1) chiropractors should suggest exercise to back pain patients who are older and (2) manipulation and mobilization do more than just reduce pain; they improve overall outcomes of care. (1) Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic concurs! Montreal chiropractic patients frequently seek care that will reduce their back pain. Then, they find Montreal chiropractic care that does more than just back pain relief. Chiropractic incorporation of nutrition, exercise, and wellness care encourages them to welcome a healthier way of life.

This chiropractic care starts with back pain relief. The spinal manipulation method Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic uses is known as Cox Technic. In research studies concerning this approach, it’s known that radiculopathy (leg pain), chronic moderate/severe back pain and recurrent mild back pain (pain than comes and goes) respond better to chiropractic Cox Technic than to medical conservative care. This study also documented that chronic/recurrent – back pain that recurs several times a year – responds better to exercise. (2) Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic recognizes that exercise is important to control back pain and prevent future back pain. Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic urges all our Montreal chiropractic patients to help themselves with exercise.
