Chiropractic for La Grande Back Surgery Prevention and Pain Relief

October 31, 2017

Living life as you want is all La Grande folks want, right? Back pain interrupts that longing for 80% of La Grande people at some point in life. Depending on whom the La Grande back pain sufferer reaches out to first, back surgery with or without fusion may be suggested. Dr. Paulette Hugulet, DC, LLC is ready to help manage and lessen that interruption with its La Grande chiropractic treatment plan.

THE FIRST DOCTOR SEEN INFLUENCES THE CARE ROUTE

Choice influences the path and price of La Grande back pain care. The cost of chiropractic care for the treatment of lumbar intervertebral disc herniation patients accounts for just 2% of total money spent on back pain. A trial of conservative non-operative care is suggested prior to surgery for patients with lumbar disc herniation. (1) About 42.7% of workers who first saw a surgeon had surgery in contrast to only 1.5% of those who saw a chiropractor originally. (2)

MULTIDISCIPLINARY OVERVIEW COMMITTEES REDUCE SURGERY

First-time disc surgeries reduced by about two thirds for patients cared for in a multidisciplinary facility. (3) When cases of patients suggested for a fusion back surgery were studied by a multidisciplinary committee, non-surgical care was recommended for simply 58%. The fusion surgical approach recommended  for 28% of the cases was changed. (4) Another multidisciplinary overview resulted in changed approaches|was modified to care for back pain without lumbar spinal fusion. Exercise, psychological therapy, rehabilitation, spinal manipulation, massage and acupuncture for chronic low back pain is still to be favored in the spine research. Pain reduction is superior than functional improvement. (5) La Grande back pain patients are seeking less pain, so this is outstanding!

SEEING THE MIND’S ROLE IN BACK PAIN

In managing La Grande back pain, care givers – including surgeons – are acknowledging the role the mind has in the care of chronic pain patients who have many contributing factors. Their pain is not as simple as explaining that he or she has a disc herniation. Several factors contribute to pain and difficulty in overcoming that pain. The body and mind respond via the sympathetic nervous system. Doctors who can recognize and help inspire a patient to picture a good response to care, to visualize a lessening of symptoms rather than concentrate on them may help improve back pain patients’ outlook and future. (6) Dr. Paulette Hugulet, DC, LLC recognizes that dealing with pain, particularly pain that has been around for some time that other care hasn’t seemed to help, is discouraging. Dr. Paulette Hugulet, DC, LLC also has been a part of modifying such pain for patients. Dr. Paulette Hugulet, DC, LLC shares the source of pain, the plan to improve, control and/or resolve the pain, and the hope to evade future pain.
