Palmer Chiropractic Centers October 2017 Healthy Newsletter

Lynchburg knee pain is a pain that Palmer Chiropractic Center sees a lot. Pain meds and surgical options are commonly recommended while a new non-surgical chiropractic approach is showing exciting results. Principles of Cox® Technic flexion distraction and decompression - a technique utilized in clinic daily for Lynchburg back pain and neck pain relief - were customized for application with knee pain. They demonstrated success in lessening knee pain. Overall, the mean pain scores for knee pain patients dropped from 7.7 to 1.8 on a 10 point scale with 10 being the worst pain in a mean of 5.3 visits over 3 weeks. More specifically, acute knee pain patients’ pain scores dropped even more from a mean of 8.1 to 1.1 in 4.8 treatments in 2.4 weeks. Chronic knee pain patients’ scores fell from 7.5 to 2.2 in 5.4 treatments in 3.3 weeks. No one in the study experienced any adverse side-effects. (1) It's gentle, relieving, and comfortable.  Check out a PODCAST by the author of this paper about his clinical experience with treating knee pain.

Lynchburg CHIROPRACTIC TIP OF THE MONTH: Strengthen the Hip Abductors

We all can benefit from stronger hip abductors, and Lynchburg older folks gain even more. A new article states that people with chronic low back pain typically have hip abductor weakness, too. (Palmer Chiropractic Center agrees as these two are seen frequently in this Lynchburg chiropractic practice.) A simple series of hip abductor exercises relieved pain and improved function for a group of older chronic low back pain sufferers. (2) Easy! Palmer Chiropractic Center will give you some hip strengthening exercise moves you can do in the convenience of your own home along with the Lynchburg chiropractic spinal manipulation with Cox Technic in office to get such relief yourself.
