Largo Back Pain and Spinal Stenosis and Osteoarthritis (Hip or Knee)

Osteoarthritis, knee or hip, may join low back pain to make some of us uncomfortable. Lumbar spinal stenosis is a particular spinal condition that is growing as the population ages. Its symptoms often appear with other osteoarthritic conditions and stenosis symptoms. Hollstrom & Associates Inc shares pain relieving Largo chiropractic care for spine pain relief for spinal stenosis and other spine pain conditions.

THE COMBINATION: Back Pain and Osteoarthritis

New research related that 15% of knee and 23% of knee osteoarthritic patients also had lumbar spinal stenosis symptoms. They both felt improvements in knee or hip associated pain, function and quality of life when they went through a patient education and exercise program. So what brings about relief for these patients? Research study after research study reports that exercise therapy likely enhances patient outcomes for patients with knee or hip osteoarthritis while no one type is said to be better than the others. (1,2,3,4) Hollstrom & Associates Inc adds spinal manipulation to boost the Largo chiropractic care and clinical outcomes.

TREATMENT FOR BACK PAIN AND OSTEOARTHRITIS

Not startling to any of our current Largo chiropractic patients, hands-on spinal manipulation is pivotal to our treatment plan. A study of conservative treatment of low back pain due to lumbar spinal stenosis stated that adding flexion distraction spinal manipulation created a more significant decrease in pain and disability scores. (5) Another study using a Cox® flexion distraction influenced treatment of knee pain and osteoarthritis documented a mean decrease in VAS (visual analog scale 0-10)-patient reported pain scores from 7.7 to 1.8 in 5.3 treatments in 3 weeks. This study documented clinical improvement for patients with knee pain. (6) Pain relief is our goal here at Hollstrom & Associates Inc and is most likely yours as well!
