Georgetown Spinal Manipulation Relieves Back Pain
Spinal manipulation for back pain relief is “it,” and Dr. Butwell has it. Spinal manipulation is popping up in more and more medical guidelines for back pain relief. Medical care guidelines are endorsing spinal manipulation as a conservative, non-drug way to deal with back pain, especially in the upsurge of opioid addiction that many times begins with medications for back pain control. Today, spinal manipulation is “it”! Dr. Butwell provides Georgetown spinal manipulation in a safe, gentle, relieving way with chiropractic Cox Technic Flexion Distraction Spinal Manipulation.
Non-Drug Care First for Back Pain
The latest medical back pain care guidelines published embrace those from the American College of Physicians (internists). Published in the Annals of Internal Medicine, these guidelines delineate three types of back pain: acute/subacute, chronic, and non-responsive. For the acute/subacute/chronic back pain patients, spinal manipulation is a treatment course recommendation. (1) It’s non-invasive and non-pharmacological. Dr. Butwell adds that it’s effective! It’s evidence-based.
The Journal of the American Medical Association released an article endorsing spinal manipulation. One is a review of published randomized clinical trials. (Dr. Butwell points out that these review studies are high level research!) This review centers on acute low back pain (pain that persists for up to 6 weeks). It states that spinal manipulation shows modest improvement in pain and function with no adverse effects. (2) In contrast to recent reports of the opioid epidemic and the danger of oral steroids (3), no adverse effects is big! That should excite Georgetown back pain patients! The other is an editorial comment by a well-known medical doctor, Richard Deyo MD, who agrees that spinal manipulation for acute low back pain is appropriate and supplies at least equal if not better results than conventional medical care (drugs, rest, etc.). (4) Dr. Butwell points out that Georgetown chiropractic care with Cox Technic is evidence-based and safe and gentle.
Medicine recognizes that back pain is widespread and life-disrupting. Drugs are short term help that may turn into long term trouble. Surgery is proper for some back pain sufferers whose conditions necessitate it – progressive neurological deficit and/or cauda equina syndrome among others in most cases. Fortunately, most Georgetown back pain does not demand such intervention and can be cared for conservatively.
