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 relieve
pain. Your Largo chiropractor is very
focused on helping our patients. A recent paper that addressed
how chondroitin sulfate may benefit our diabetic osteoporotic patients
really got our attention! Nutrition and manipulation (and a bit
of exercise!) go together for spine pain relief. Following
is the newest on chondroitin sulfate, B vitamins, and spine
nutritional health, all elements of the general
treatment plan for spine pain relief with the Cox® Technic System.
CHONDROITIN SULFATE
We have learned much about chondroitin sulfate’s benefit for disc cartilage for some time. Innovative research is sharing new details
about its ability to mend bone microstructure and alleviate
diabetic osteoporosis after 8- and 10-weeks of use. Granted,
the studies were performed with rats, but
the transfer of knowledge is stimulating. The
anti-oxidative, anti-inflammatory, and bone metabolism-regulating benefits
are leading researchers to find dietary
interventions as well. Bone mineral density improvement was seen,
too. (1) Chondroitin sulfate is a key
addition to the chiropractic nutritional treatment of Largo back
pain.
B VITAMINS
And B vitamins, long known for
their benefits for immunity, nervous system, and more, are now
written about their help for back pain and musculoskeletal
conditions. A combination of thiamine, pyridoxine, and
cyanocobalamin has pain-decreasing effects because of
their neuropathic and nociceptive effects via to their
anti-inflammatory, anti-nociceptive, neuroprotective, and neuromodulatory action.
(2) Those are many valuable benefits! Another study
described the effective treatment of NSAIDs and B vitamins for improving general
well-being and heightening the quality of sleep by day
10 of treatment observation of patients suffering
with acute lumbar dorsalgia (back pain). (3) Largo chiropractic
care of back pain includes nutritional options
alongside gentle spinal manipulation as outlined in the Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain
Management.
