What do West Palm Beach back pain sufferers want
when they seek West Palm Beach back pain care? Back pain relief. How much
West Palm Beach back pain relief do they expect? 100%? 50%? That percentage differs
with the back pain patient’s experience and preceding care. First
time back pain sufferers many times expect 100%. A veteran back pain
sufferer who has experienced a few
back surgeries, numerous spinal injections, many doctors and
therapists may well be delighted with 50% or even 30%. Moses Chiropractic
welcomes all these West Palm Beach back pain patients and shares
what the spinal research literature reports as realistic
outcomes of West Palm Beach back pain treatment and specifically West Palm Beach
chiropractic outcomes of care using the Cox® Technic System of
Spinal Pain Management.
YOUR EXPECTATION OF West Palm Beach BACK PAIN RELIEF
How much improvement do you expect from your back
pain treatment? 30% is held to be “clinically relevant.” (1)
Is that enough for you? Medical literature defines
the “minimal clinically important difference” of treatment to be the smallest
change in outcome a patient sees as meaningful to
him or her. That difference is defined as 30% improvement in
self-reported pain or function as a result of a study of 743 patients.
(2) In another study of 609 back-related
leg pain and sciatica patients, good outcome is explained to be 30% reduction in disability. 55% reported such improvement
at 12 months of care. (3) The expectation of 5443 patients who underwent
spine surgery for lumbar spine degenerative disc disease for
pain and disability reduction was met for 64% at 12 months
post-surgery. However, satisfaction decreases as disability rises. (4) Realistic expectations of back pain treatment are shared
with West Palm Beach chiropractic patients at
Moses Chiropractic when the treatment plan is set up.
CHIROPRACTIC COX® TECHNIC OUTCOMES FOR BACK PAIN
In following the protocols of the
chiropractic technique, Cox® Technic, Moses Chiropractic and fellow chiropractors
who use it seek 50% relief of pain in 30 days…and
we chiropractors do not see this as too high
a target! Cox® Technic physicians like yours at Moses Chiropractic see
higher percentages of improvement for many West Palm Beach back pain
patients. With 50% relief, which for many patients comes
in just a couple visits to a couple weeks, West Palm Beach
chiropractic treatment continues without a surgical consult or
advanced imaging (unless progressive neurological deficits occur or cauda equina is present). 50% relief is often
a longed for relief for
West Palm Beach back pain patients seeking a return to a
quality of life that is acceptable. This might incorporate
taking the dog for a walk or going to the
mailbox. Moses Chiropractic tries to help patients achieve
realistic and maintainable outcomes of care.
