Healthy living. How do you define
that? Do you embrace it? Do
you know what behaviors are healthy? Cross Chiropractic Center is all about
healthy living. Cross Chiropractic Center sees chiropractic care as a healthy behavior! Sandy Springs chiropractic patients can expect
their Sandy Springs chiropractor to be a guide to the
healthy lifestyle behaviors that can not only assist them cope
with current spine pain issues but also ward off
future episodes of spine pain, neck pain, and back pain, and other
health issues that are best prevented.
HEALTHY BEHAVIORS
What are some healthy behaviors? A good
diet. Exercise. Not smoking. Low/No alcohol intake. Those make sense, don’t they? A new
study proved that men who took advantage of
more of these healthy choices had decreased risk
of long lasting low back pain and women for neck pain. (1) Consuming
fruit and vegetables is another favorable
healthy behavior. This plus the other behaviors are
shown to reduce the risk
of having long term upsetting low
back pain in women and even potentially better
the prognosis of low back pain relief. (2) Taking part in a
community based musculoskeletal physiotherapy program improves
the health-related quality of life for patients. (3) Using
a lumbar support orthosis increases postural control
when standing on unstable ground. This may be notably
helpful for patients with non-specific low back pain as they
are predisposed to be more unsteady. (4) Cross Chiropractic Center works with our Sandy Springs back pain patients on their balance and proprioception to help improve their steadiness.
CARE CHOICE
Choice of care for health care
issues encourages more healthy behaviors. When
patients are given the opportunity to choose their provider for back
pain or neck pain relief (in one study: physical therapy care), costs were less
than if they sought care from their medical doctor first and were
referred. Direct access results in a difference in costs and
outcomes. (5) A study of women and their choices of providers for back pain
relief found that their knowledge of
the doctor’s treatment, social network recommendations, how close they were to the doctor’s office, and doctor’s qualifications prompted
their choice. (6)
