Healthy living. How do you describe
that? Do you live it? What are healthy living behaviors? Rethwill Chiropractic Clinic is all about
healthy living. Rethwill Chiropractic Clinic sees chiropractic care as a healthy behavior! Eugene chiropractic patients can expect
their Eugene chiropractor to be an escort to the
healthy lifestyle behaviors that can not only help them deal
with current spine pain issues but also avent
future episodes of spine pain, neck pain, and back pain, and other
health issues that are best prevented.
HEALTHY BEHAVIORS
What are some healthy behaviors? A good
diet. Exercise. Not smoking. Low/No alcohol intake. Those sound
about right, do they not? A recent
study showed that men who abided by
more of these healthy choices had lower possibility
of long lasting low back pain and women for neck pain. (1) Consuming
fruit and vegetables is an additional favorable
healthy behavior. This plus the other behaviors are
shown to decrease the possibility
of developing long term troubling low
back pain in women and even potentially better
the prognosis of low back pain relief. (2) Taking part in a
community based musculoskeletal physiotherapy program enhances
the health-related quality of life for patients. (3) Using
a lumbar support belt improves postural control
when standing on unlevel ground. This may be especially
helpful for patients with non-specific low back pain as they
are predisposed to be more unsteady. (4) Rethwill Chiropractic Clinic works with our Eugene back pain patients on their balance and proprioception to help improve their steadiness.
CARE CHOICE
Choice of care for health care
issues results in more healthy behaviors. When
patients are given the opportunity to choose their provider for back
pain or neck pain relief (in one study: physical therapy care), costs were less
than if they went to their medical doctor first and were
referred. Direct access results in a difference in costs and
outcomes. (5) A study of women and their choices of providers for back pain
relief found that their knowledge of
the doctor’s treatment, social network endorsements, geographical
proximity, and credentials of
the doctor prompted
their choice. (6)
