Dr. Paulette Hugulet, DC, LLC 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!

We chiropractors seem single-focused at times, don’t we? Spine pain relief! Chiropractors study back pain, neck pain, spine pain and its diagnosis and treatment to ease pain. Your La Grande chiropractor is very focused on helping our patients. A recent paper that highlighted 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 newest 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 have learned a lot about chondroitin sulfate’s benefit for disc cartilage for a long time. Innovative research is sharing new details about its ability to repair bone microstructure and alleviate diabetic osteoporosis after 8- and 10-weeks of use. Of course, the studies utilized rats, but the transfer of information is exciting. The anti-oxidative, anti-inflammatory, and bone metabolism-regulating benefits are guiding researchers to find dietary interventions to help, too. Bone mineral density improvement was seen, too. (1) Chondroitin sulfate is a key inclusion in the chiropractic nutritional treatment of La Grande back pain

B VITAMINS

Now, B vitamins, long recognized for their benefits for immunity, nervous system, and more, are now reported for their help for back pain and musculoskeletal conditions. A combination 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 many valuable benefits! Another report presented how treatment with NSAIDs and B vitamins proved effective for improving 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) La Grande chiropractic care of back pain incorporates nutritional approaches alongside gentle spinal manipulation as outlined in the Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain Management.
