CONTINUED CARE BENEFITS
That’s where regular chiropractic care comes into play. Surely our Concord, NC chiropractic patients realize that chiropractic care alleviates back pain and neck pain and related extremity pain like arm and leg pain. They also understand that they do not want to suffer with such pain again! While there is no assurance that back pain or neck pain will not come back, preventing pain and/or its return to as mild as possible is a worthy goal as is a goal to be able to do daily activities as pain free and worry free as possible. A recent study called the Nordic Maintenance Care Program stated that such chiropractic maintenance care decreased the number of days of bothersome pain that reduced activities and boosted the number of pain free weeks between episodes. These outcomes may well facilitate patients’ and doctors’ realistically temper their expectations of care. Maintenance care is not a cure, does not avert new episodes necessarily, but it’s a plan to reduce life-routine disrupting pain for back pain sufferers with recurrent and persistent low back pain.
