The WORLDWIDE Role of Chiropractic for Back
Pain
It is the time for chiropractic!
The Chiropractic TRUhealthDR is thrilled to offer chiropractic services in
Colorado Springs and be a part of this time in healthcare. Lancet, one of the foremost
medical journals, presented a series of pieces
on the disappointing condition that healthcare
systems around the globe are managing low back pain. Back pain is a huge problem the world over and
growing worse. And chiropractic is “perfectly placed to be a
major player in providing a part of the solution to the global challenge of low
back” as long as its providers follow guidelines (like your chiropractor strives to do!) to
not order excessive x-rays, stick to evidence-based
care clinical practice guidelines, and keep up-to-date
of the most recent research (and even participating
in research when possible!). Chiropractic is known
for its role in treating back pain. It needs to find its way into mainstream
healthcare to help more back pain and neck pain
sufferers non-pharmacologically and non-surgically. (1) The World Federation of
Chiropractic is developing toolkits for chiropractors to participate more with public health communities and be of greater
benefit to patients and communities inside
the health system as valued partners for their health
and well-being. (2) Your Colorado Springs chiropractor at The Chiropractic TRUhealthDR is
grateful for this sponsorship and foreshight
from a world chiropractic organization as that is just what this Colorado Springs
chiropractic practice of The Chiropractic TRUhealthDR plans to do here in
Colorado Springs.

with Dr. Christophe Dean on The
Back Doctors Podcast with Dr. Michael Johnson about how he integrates
Cox® Technic into his Colorado Springs patient care to help ease
back pain.
TIP OF THE MONTH: Wear a Back Support
Low back pain patients at The Chiropractic TRUhealthDR may benefit
from wearing a lumbar support belt. New research shows
that a lumbar support belt does not inevitably
result in muscle weakness but rather enheances
walking distance capability for spinal stenosis patients with
intermittent claudication, drops pain and fear of pain,
lessens use of pain medications, and improves
muscle strength, flexibility, and activities of daily living. (3-10) All
good! Your chiropractor cautiously considers
when and if to use of back braces for each individual Colorado Springs
back pain patient as he or she heals with Colorado Springs
chiropractic care, knowing the benefits
back braces may give along the way.
