September 2020 Healthy News from Aaron Chiropractic Clinic: Cox Technic Relieves Back Pain due to Disc Extrusion with Spondylolytic Spondylolisthesis and Eat an Apple!

Extruded discs by themselves are painful and often deemed surgical issues. Spondylolytic spondylolisthesis by itself is a disabling, painful condition and often thought to be a surgical issue necessitating fusion. Combine the two of these in one patient and the Fort Wayne chiropractic patient and the treating physician like your Fort Wayne chiropractor face a challenge that demands gentle, experienced care. A newly published case report of a patient with a disc extrusion – one that has escaped its outer bands and entered into the spinal canal space – and spondylolytic spondylolisthesis – involving separation of the pars interarticularis – described how just 9 visits in 4 weeks brought about pain relief. The patient who rated his pain a 9 out of 10 (a 10 indicating the worst pain) on the first visit rated it 0 out of 10 on visit 9. At ten years follow-up, the patient had no orthopedic or neurological issues and reported no recurrence of the original symptoms. (1) What was the treatment plan? The Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain Management, the same care used at our chiropractic clinic. Aaron Chiropractic Clinic embraces challenging Fort Wayne back pain cases like this!

Fort Wayne CHIROPRACTIC TIP OF THE MONTH:

Enjoy This Apple Season!

Feed the gut. Lose some weight and raise your bone density to improve your spine. Reduce your risk of diabetes and heart disease. Protect the brain. How? Eat an apple! Apples are extraordinarily healthy! They have few calories, good pre-biotic pectin that feeds the good gut bacteria, lots of fiber and water to make you feel full, loads of polyphenols in the peel which are antioxidant, acetylcholine-level-preserving features to protect the brain, and flavonoids that may reduce blood pressure, cholesterol, and stroke risk. (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8) Apples round out a healthy chiropractic approach to life!
