A one-tract mind on back pain relief. Yes!
We chiropractors seem single-focused at times, don’t we? Spine
pain relief! Chiropractors really learn all we can about back
pain, neck pain, spine pain and its diagnosis and treatment to ease
pain. Your Pflugerville chiropractor is very involved in helping our patients. A recent paper that addressed
how chondroitin sulfate may help our diabetic osteoporotic patients
really caught our attention! Nutrition and manipulation (and a bit
of exercise!) go hand in hand for spine pain relief. Following
is the newest on chondroitin sulfate, B vitamins, and spine
nutritional health, all parts of the general
treatment plan for spine pain relief with the Cox® Technic System.
CHONDROITIN SULFATE
We’ve understood much about chondroitin sulfate’s benefit for disc cartilage for a
long time. Innovative research is demonstrating its ability to repair bone microstructure and alleviate
diabetic osteoporosis after 8- and 10-weeks of use. Of course,
the studies were performed with 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 valuable
inclusion in the chiropractic nutritional treatment of Pflugerville back
pain.
B VITAMINS
Now, B vitamins, long recognized for
their benefits for immunity, nervous system, and more, are now
written about their help for back pain and musculoskeletal
conditions. Combined use 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 quite valuable benefits! Another study
described the effective treatment of NSAIDs and B vitamins for improving general
well-being and increasing in the quality of sleep by the 10th day of treatment observation of patients suffering
with acute lumbar dorsalgia (back pain). (3) Pflugerville chiropractic
care of back pain incorporates nutritional options
along with gentle spinal manipulation as described in the Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain
Management.
