Chiropractic can help chronic low back pain in pain relief, healthcare coordination, and in cost-of-care reduction.

SPINAL MANIPULATION LOWERS COST OF BACK PAIN CARE
Back pain is not inexpensive. With the cost of spine pain in the US valued to be $134.5 billion (1), Rosenberg Wellness Center is fairly certain that our chiropractic patients would be happy with cost-effective care. A recent Canadian study of high-cost back pain patients in the healthcare system reported that they accounted for nearly 50% of the healthcare spending in a year. (2) Another paper reported results showing that spine-related pain patients who see a chiropractor initially also experienced reduced costs and healthcare services compared with medical management. (1) We know our New York City chiropractic patients would appreciate coordination of care whenever possible among their healthcare professionals to get the most economical and effective care.
HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS WORKING TOGETHER
Healthcare professionals working together benefit patients dealing with New York City back and other spine pain conditions. A study in South Africa analyzed the relationship and understanding of each other’s professions between chiropractors and physiotherapists. Interesting outcomes! Each profession evaluated the other’s in terms of what conditions it treated, what modalities it utilized, how well each did at treating neuromusculoskeletal conditions. Interprofessional referrals for chiropractors were 82% and 55% for physiotherapists though 69% of chiropractors and 55% of physiotherapists wanted to collaborate in administering treatment to patients for their pain relief. (3) We healthcare providers strive to keep our patients in the center of the treatment plan to reduce their pain and healthcare usage.
SMT REDUCES PAIN OF BACK PAIN
For chronic low back pain patients, those whose pain lasts over 3 months and usually leads to emotional distress and physical disability and more healthcare care, 12 sessions of spinal manipulation offered greater pain relief than a control intervention. (4) Another study of 1000 low back pain sufferers treated with Cox® Technic flexion distraction protocols also reported that a mean of 12 visits in 29 days produced maximum clinical improvement. Plus, fewer than 9% of the low back pain patients continued to the chronic phase. (5) Chronic pain prevention is a commendable effort!
