Chronic lower back pain - pain that has been with you for a long time - puts a crimp in the lifestyle of young and old alike. The average age for back
surgery in men is 37.9 years of age and in women 45 years. That's young! Leg pain due to a back condition is a more
prevalent factor for the surgery. (1) But surgery is not the only answer for chronic lower back pain. It may be just a bump
in the road of chronic back pain if a plan isn't designed to control it. But back
pain plagues Groton residents who haven't had back surgery, too. Shoreline Medical Services/ Hutter Chiropractic Office is here for any lower back
pain sufferer - chronic, post-surgical or acute - seeking relief.
Now, the first step in dealing
with chronic
lower back pain is to avoid it. A healthy lifestyle that includes exercise, activity, nutrition,
diet, weight control, rest, and even chiropractic can help. However,
if you are one who has an injury or is prone to back problems, you'll want to consider ways to cope and control it.
That's where Shoreline Medical Services/ Hutter Chiropractic Office comes into play. We know the
spine. We care for the spine. Groton residents trust us to do the right thing when it comes to
back pain relief and control...and we do!
Shoreline Medical Services/ Hutter Chiropractic Office's goal is pain relief, just the same as yours. We use spinal
manipulation and therapies for pain relief and suggest rehabilitation to help you maintain the relief.
- Spinal manipulation is effective for the treatment of chronic non-specific lower back
pain. (2)
- Rehabilitation is vital to re-coordinate the pelvic motion for walking and running and
prevent future episodes of pain. Just one bout of back pain puts you at risk! (2)
Long-term benefit from chiropractic spinal manipulation for lower back pain relief comes when spinal manipulation is
continued after the pain is gone. Researchers note that untreated patients revert back to their usual pain without it. (2)
