Healthy living. How do you define
that? Do you embody it? What are healthy living behaviors? Vancouver Disc Centers is all for
healthy living. Vancouver Disc Centers sees chiropractic care as a healthy behavior! Vancouver chiropractic patients can believe
their Vancouver chiropractor to be an escort to the
healthy lifestyle behaviors that can not only help them cope
with exisiting spine pain issues but also ward off
future bouts of spine pain, neck pain, and back pain, and other
health issues that are best avoided.
HEALTHY BEHAVIORS
What are some healthy behaviors? A good
diet. Exercise. Not smoking. Low/No alcohol intake. Those make sense, don’t they? A new
study showed that men who took advantage of
more of these healthy choices had lower risk
of long lasting low back pain and women for neck pain. (1) Eating
fruit and vegetables is another positive
healthy behavior. This in addition to the other behaviors are
shown to lessen the chance
of having long term upsetting low
back pain in women and even potentially better
the prognosis of low back pain relief. (2) Participating in a
community based musculoskeletal physiotherapy program enhances
the health-related quality of life for patients. (3) Utilizing
a lumbar support belt improves postural control
when standing on unlevel ground. This may be notably
welcomed by34 patients with non-specific low back pain as they
are prone to be more unstable. (4) Vancouver Disc Centers works with our Vancouver back pain patients on their balance and proprioception to help improve their steadiness.
CHOICE OF CARE
Choice of care for health care
issues encourages 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 lower
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 reports that their familiarity with
the doctor’s treatment, social network recommendations, how close they were to the doctor’s office, and credentials of
the doctor influenced
their choice. (6)
