How great it would be to take a
pill – or even better: a combination of pills! - and have your
Colorado Springs back pain or neck pain vanish
right now? You aren’t alone! The Chiropractic TRUhealthDR can relate.
Pain upsets our lives. Back pain prevents many
Colorado Springs back pain sufferers from working and from playing and from
doing activities of daily living that must be done (dressing, cooking,
walking, doing laundry, etc.). When back pain bothers you or a loved one or friend, visit The Chiropractic TRUhealthDR for relief and chiropractic
advice about how to manage it without
drugs when or if drugs are not working or are not in
your treatment plan.
NOT WELL SUPPORTED: DRUG COMBINATIONS
Having drugs in the treatment plan may be
successful for some back pain sufferers and not others. Pills may deliver
relief for some hours, days, weeks, months or not any.
A new Cochrane Review, one of the most highly respected
medical review systems in the world, stated that a drug combination,
though possibly better for more pain relief, for low back pain and
sciatica is not supported. There is no clear evidence, as a matter of fact
there is a lack of studies and overall low quality of evidence,
that supports drug combinations for low back
pain and sciatica. Additionally, the risk of adverse effects is lower
with single drug therapy over a combination. (1) Have you experienced
a let-down from prescribed medications for your back pain? It’s ok.
The Chiropractic TRUhealthDR works with back pain sufferers
like you.
RECOMMENDED: SPINAL MANIPULATION
The Chiropractic TRUhealthDR’s use of the Cox® Technic System of Spinal
Pain Management which incorporates a specific
form of spinal manipulation has assisted countless
Colorado Springs back pain sufferers get relief of their back pain. Spinal manipulation is recommended
as first line treatment of back pain by the American College of Physicians and the
American Board of Family Physicians. (2) Cox® Technic has been
shown in federally funded spinal research projects to drop
intradiscal pressures, widen the intervertebral canal area, and increase
disc height. (3,4) In
clinical studies, Cox® Technic has revealed that back pain
relief happens in 29 days and 12 visits. Of course, more severe disc
herniations and spinal stenosis may take longer than these
averages, but relief happens. (5) For many back pain sufferers, 50%
relief would be most welcome. How about you?
RESEARCH SUPPORTED: CHONDROITIN SULFATE, TURMERIC AND CURCUMIN
To heighten the relief and help
our Colorado Springs back pain patients, The Chiropractic TRUhealthDR incorporated
supplements into the Colorado Springs chiropractic treatment plan. Natural
substances like spinal disc-supporting chondroitin sulfate – shown to have “genuine
anti-inflammatory properties (6) - and back pain-relieving turmeric and
curcumin are helpful in the short-term
as well as long term. The Chiropractic TRUhealthDR is prepared to help you discover
the right combination of treatment approaches to decrease
