Largo Chiropractic Care Relief for Back Pain and Fear of Back Pain

February 19, 2019

Have you noticed that if you see someone with a pin approach a balloon, you flinch or cover your ears? You know there’s a pop coming. It’s similar with Largo back pain. If you believe your back to be painful, it often is. Hollstrom & Associates Inc cares for back pain patients daily with that balloon-pop instinct for back pain’s intensity. Hollstrom & Associates Inc strives to help our Largo back pain patients feel back pain relief and learn to not expect their backs to hurt.

Largo BACK PAIN PERCEPTION

Researchers publish that perception of pain is affected by both the expectation of pain (or no pain) and the real sensation of pain. However, the bigger the difference between the expectation and the pain, the less the expectation of pain or no pain affects the actual experience of pain. (1) It is not surprising, then, that back pain patients - those with spondylosis, intervertebral disc disorders among others – have issues with depression. (2) They expect a life without back pain, yet they suffer with  back pain. There’s a disconnect between perception and reality. Caring for Largo back pain patients consists of not just treating the source of back pain but its influences on the whole person, mind and body.

Largo BACK PAIN FEAR

Patients fear Largo back pain. Patients want a diagnosis, pain control and imaging (often despite what the medical guidelines dictate). These perceived needs patient by patients with back pain affect patient outcomes. (3) Back pain specialists who understand these perceived needs can address these needs, can discuss these needs and can describe how these needs are being met with the Largo chiropractic treatment plan. Your chiropractor wants what is best for you and your sought after and deserved pain relief.

Largo BACK PAIN RELIEF WITH SPINAL MANIPULATION

Luckily, spinal manipulation shows itself worthy of use by Largo back pain patients as research reports that it may decrease the expectation of pain, the fear of movement and other associated brain responses that chronic low back pain patients need. (As an aside, how were these findings discovered? With amazing new MRI technology that investigates brain function and blood oxygen level signaling! Amazing!).  (4) Your Largo chiropractor at Hollstrom & Associates Inc offers the gentlest type of spinal manipulation, Cox Technic, that itself is amazing. Another research study reported that manipulation and mobilization likely reduce pain and increase function for chronic low back pain. Manipulation has a greater effect than mobilization. Both seemed to be safe interventions guiding the researchers to propose that a multimodal treatment plan may be encouraging. (5) Hollstrom & Associates Inc knows this to be true! Your treatment plan will consist of a variety of treatment tactics to help get you the relief you want.
