PATIENTS SATISFIED WITH CHIROPRACTIC CARE

A recent study documented that 80-90% of patients who visit chiropractors and suffer with sciatic leg pain said that they were “very satisfied” with their care, particularly with the thorough examination, understandable communication and information about the symptoms and prognosis as well as clear expectations about the treatment and its effectiveness. (1) We are here to satisfy and exceed your expectations of care! We have published papers to verify our treatment like this one that explained how patients suffering with leg pain in addition to back pain improved to the same extent as low back pain alone patients with an exercise and education program. (2) We encourage our sciatic leg pain patients to not give up! There is hope for relief of pain with our chiropractic treatment plan that offers the best of nutrition, exercise and spinal manipulation with The Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain Management. In fact, a new case report was just published and available on PubMed and in the Frontiers of Integrative Medicine journal for you to read that presented a case of a patient with left leg pain that extended into the foot who was told he would have to have spinal surgery yet decided to undergo carefully monitored, gentle force-applied, chiropractic Cox® Technic spinal manipulation and exercise for relief of his discogenic sciatic leg pain. (3) If you or someone you know is dealing with back pain with (and without!) sciatic leg pain, get some more information and consider care at Apple Country Chiropractic!

 Williamson sciatica exercise: hamstring stretch 

TIP OF THE MONTH: Stretch Hamstrings to Ease Sciatic Leg Pain

Lumbar radiculopathy (pain that goes down the leg via a spinal nerve root) really messes with its sufferers’ quality of life. Also known as sciatic leg pain, lumbar radiculopathy challenges its sufferers to understand their condition so that they can control it best, not fear movement, and better take care of themselves. (4) Often this begins with just a simple exercise like hamstring stretching. A review of 344 randomized control trials that analyzed the effectiveness of hamstring stretching exercise discovered that it reduces pain intensity for low back pain, enhances straight leg raise ability in patients with low back pain and radicular leg pain (sciatica), and boosts function for back pain patients of all sorts. (5) Let’s talk at your next Williamson chiropractic visit to Apple Country Chiropractic about the right way to do hamstring stretching for the best results for you!
