As your Fernandina Beach chiropractor, I
have personally
seen the positive
influence that chiropractic care
can have on various types of
patients). From those dealing
with back pain to office
workers managing
the consequences of
extended sitting, and even
athletes looking to return to their sport and/or enhance
their performance,
chiropractic treatment can
deliver
a variety of benefits.
In this blog, check out
these three compelling
reasons why you should
contemplate visiting a
chiropractor at
Amelia Chiropractic Clinic for your Fernandina Beach back pain and other
musculoskeletal
conditions.
CHIROPRACTORS DECREASE BACK
PAIN
One of the main reasons people
seek out
Fernandina Beach chiropractic care is to
address back pain.
According to a national cross-sectional survey
available in Chiropractic
& Manual
Therapies, 62% of patients reported
seeking
chiropractic care for back pain.
Additionally, a systematic
review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled
trials showed
that spinal manipulative therapy (a
common technique used by
chiropractors) was effective in
decreasing chronic low
back pain for 92% and
boosting mobility for 80% compared to
other treatments or no treatment what so ever. (1) This evidence suggests
that seeing a chiropractor
can give relief for those hurting
with back
pain.
Bonus: Our Fernandina Beach
chiropractic practice includes
use of The Cox® Technic System of Spinal
Pain Management that has over 55 years
of documented clinical experience,

research facilities like Hines VA, Loyola Stritch
School of Medicine, Palmer,
National University of Health Sciences, Auburn,
etc. Check

CHIROPRACTIC REDUCES RELIANCE ON OPIOID PAIN
MEDICATIONS
In recent years, there has
been growing
concern about the overuse and
potential harm of
opioid pain medications. However,
research has demonstrated
that chiropractic care may be an effective
option for handling
musculoskeletal pain without
relying on these powerful
drugs. A retrospective observational study
published in Chiropractic &
Manual Therapies found
that older Medicare beneficiaries with
spinal pain who received
chiropractic care were less likely to use
prescription opioids compared to those who
didn’t receive
chiropractic care. (2) This is an important finding, as it emphasizes
the potential role of chiropractors
like yours at Amelia Chiropractic Clinic
in positively addressing the
opioid epidemic.
CHIROPRACTIC PATIENTS ARE SATISFIED WITH
CARE
In addition to
decreasing
pain and dependence on medication,
many patients report
high levels of satisfaction
with their chiropractic care.
The same national cross-sectional survey
described earlier found
that 87% of patients reported that
they were satisfied or very
satisfied with their general
experience of chiropractic care.
Another study published in the
British Medical Journal demonstrated that
chiropractic care was associated
with significantly higher
satisfaction scores compared to usual medical care
for low back pain. (3) This suggests
that not only does chiropractic care
provide effective
treatment, but it also advances a
positive patient experience. Bonus:
Our Cox® Technic care has
documented patient satisfaction in
case reports and clinical studies!
