Hollstrom & Associates Incs October 2017 Healthy Newsletter
Largo knee pain is a pain that Hollstrom & Associates Inc sees often. Pain medications and surgical options are commonly recommended while a new non-surgical chiropractic protocol is showing quite promising results. Principles of Cox® Technic flexion distraction and decompression - a technique used in clinic all the time for Largo back pain and neck pain relief - were customized for use with knee pain. They are shown to be of help in relieving knee pain. Overall, knee pain patients’ mean pain scores dropped from 7.7 to 1.8 on a 10 point scale 1 least pain, 10 most pain in a mean of 5.3 visits over 3 weeks. In particular, acute knee pain patients’ pain scores dropped more dramatically from a mean of 8.1 to 1.1 in 4.8 treatments in 2.4 weeks. Chronic knee pain patients’ scores dropped from 7.5 to 2.2 in 5.4 treatments in 3.3 weeks. None of the patients experienced any adverse side-effects. (1) It's gentle, relieving, and comfortable.

Largo CHIROPRACTIC TIP OF THE MONTH: Strengthen the Hip Abductors
All of us can gain from stronger hip abductors, and Largo elder folks benefit even more. A new article states that chronic low back pain sufferers typically have hip abductor weakness, too. (Hollstrom & Associates Inc agrees as these two are seen frequently in this Largo chiropractic practice.) A simple series of hip abductor exercises relieved pain and improved function in a group of older chronic low back pain sufferers. (2) Easy! Hollstrom & Associates Inc will share some hip strengthening exercises you can do at home alongside the Largo chiropractic spinal manipulation with Cox Technic in office to achieve such relief yourself.
