Dr. Butwell Back Pain Care Includes B Vitamins and Chondroitin Sulfate for Back Pain Relief

December 28, 2021

A one-tract mind on back pain relief. Yes!

Do we chiropractors seem to be single-focused on back pain? Many of us are! Chiropractors really learn all we can about back pain, neck pain, spine pain and its diagnosis and treatment to relieve pain. Your Georgetown chiropractor is very focused on helping our patients. A recent paper that addressed how chondroitin sulfate may benefit our diabetic osteoporotic patients really caught our attention! Nutrition and manipulation (and a little exercise!) go hand in hand for spine pain relief. Following is the latest on chondroitin sulfate, B vitamins, and spine nutritional health, all elements of the overall treatment plan for spine pain relief with the Cox® Technic System.

CHONDROITIN SULFATE

We’ve understood a lot about chondroitin sulfate’s benefit for disc cartilage for a long time. Innovative research is demonstrating its ability to mend bone microstructure and alleviate diabetic osteoporosis after 8- and 10-weeks of use. Granted, the reports were performed with rats, but the transfer of knowledge is stimulating. The anti-oxidative, anti-inflammatory, and bone metabolism-regulating advantages are guiding researchers to find dietary interventions to help, too. Bone mineral density improvement was seen, too. (1) Chondroitin sulfate is a valuable inclusion in the chiropractic nutritional treatment of Georgetown back pain

B VITAMINS

Now, B vitamins, long recognized for their advantages for immunity, nervous system, and more, are now written about their help for back pain and musculoskeletal conditions. Combined use of thiamine, pyridoxine, and cyanocobalamin has pain-decreasing effects due to their neuropathic and nociceptive effects due to their anti-inflammatory, anti-nociceptive, neuroprotective, and neuromodulatory action. (2) Those are quite valuable benefits! Another study presented how treatment with NSAIDs and B vitamins proved effective for enhancing general well-being and increasing in the quality of sleep by the 10th day of treatment observation of sufferers with acute lumbar dorsalgia (back pain). (3) Georgetown chiropractic care of back pain includes nutritional approaches alongside gentle spinal manipulation as described in the Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain Management.
