The Value of Montreal Healthy Living
Healthy living. How do you define that? Do you embody it? Do you know what behaviors are healthy? Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic is all for healthy living. Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic sees chiropractic care as a healthy behavior! Montreal chiropractic patients can expect their Montreal chiropractor to be a guide to the healthy lifestyle behaviors that can not only help them cope with exisiting spine pain issues but also avent future bouts of spine pain, neck pain, and back pain, and other health issues that are best prevented.
HEALTHY BEHAVIORS
What are some healthy behaviors? A good diet. Exercise. Non-smoking. Low/No alcohol intake. Those sound about right, do they not? A recent study proved that men who took advantage of more of these healthy choices had decreased possibility of long lasting low back pain and women for neck pain. (1) Eating fruit and vegetables is an additional advantageous healthy behavior. This in addition to the other behaviors are shown to lessen the chance of having long term upsetting low back pain in women and even potentially better the prognosis of low back pain relief. (2) Participating in a community based musculoskeletal physiotherapy program enhances the health-related quality of life for patients. (3) Using a lumbar support belt improves postural control when standing on unlevel ground. This may be especially welcomed by34 patients with non-specific low back pain as they are predisposed to be more unsteady. (4) Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic works with our Montreal back pain patients on their balance and proprioception to help improve their steadiness.
CHOICE OF CARE
Choice of care for health care issues results in more healthy behaviors. When patients are able to choose their provider for back pain or neck pain relief (in one study: physical therapy care), costs were less than if they went to their medical doctor first and were referred. Direct access makes a difference in costs and outcomes. (5) A study of women and their choices of providers for back pain relief found that their knowledge of the doctor’s treatment, social network recommendations, how close they were to the doctor’s office, and credentials of the doctor prompted their choice.
