Concord, NC BACK PAIN PERCEPTION
Researchers write that perception of pain is shaped by both the expectation of pain (or no pain) and the actual sensation of pain. However, the bigger the difference between the expectation and the pain, the less the expectation of pain or no pain affects the actual experience of pain. (1) It is no wonder, then, that back pain patients - those with spondylosis, intervertebral disc disorders among others – struggle with depression. (2) They expect a life without back pain, yet they suffer with back pain. There is a disconnect between perception and reality. Caring for Concord, NC back pain patients involves not just treating the basis of back pain but its influences on the whole person, mind and body.
Concord, NC BACK PAIN FEAR
Patients fear Concord, NC back pain. Patients desire a diagnosis, pain control and imaging (often regardless of what the medical guidelines dictate). These perceived patient needs affect patient outcomes. (3) Back pain specialists who understand these perceived needs can address these needs, can discuss these needs and can explain how these needs are being met with the Concord, NC chiropractic treatment plan.

Concord, NC BACK PAIN RELIEF WITH SPINAL MANIPULATION
Luckily, spinal manipulation shows itself worthy of use by Concord, NC back pain patients as research reports that it may decrease the expectation of pain, the fear of movement and other related brain responses that chronic low back pain patients experience. (As a side note, how were these findings documented? With amazing new MRI technology that investigates brain function and blood oxygen level signaling! Amazing!). (4) Your Concord, NC chiropractor at Pure Chiropractic offers the gentlest type of spinal manipulation, Cox Technic, that itself is amazing. Another research study documented that manipulation and mobilization likely decrease pain and improve function for chronic low back pain. Manipulation has a greater effect than mobilization.
