Dentists recommend regular teeth cleanings a couple times annually to keep plaque at bay. Cardiologists at the American Heart Association recommend doing at least 150 minutes of moderate-to-vigorous aerobic physical activity a week to have an impact on heart health. Health experts recommend regular daily exercise for 30 minutes a day five days a week to maintain optimal health for the body. Nutritionists recommend a good diet daily: fruits, veggies, proteins, fats, etc., to feed the body properly. Spinal manipulation for back pain relief is recommended by the American College of Physicians, American Pain Society, and the American Medical Association.

BACK PAIN STATS
80% of us humans will have no less than one episode of back pain in our lifetime. A third of us experiences back pain this moment. Back pain is known to come and go not disappear for life. Poulin Chiropractic of Herndon and Ashburn often advises patients that the current episode of back pain is gaining your attention for a reason. If for no other reason, it is asking for care. It won’t be disregarded. Your spine will welcome an effective treatment plan to end the pain as well as a plan to keep it mobile and healthy.
CONTINUED CARE BENEFITS
That’s where regular chiropractic care comes into play. Surely our Ashburn and Herndon chiropractic patients realize that chiropractic care lessens back pain and neck pain and related extremity pain like arm and leg pain. They also know that they don’t want to suffer with that pain again! While there is no guarantee 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 everyday activities as pain free and worry free as possible. A recent study called the Nordic Maintenance Care Program reported that such chiropractic maintenance care reduced the number of days of bothersome pain that reduced activities and increased the number of pain free weeks between episodes. These outcomes may well help patients and doctors realistically temper their expectations of care. Maintenance care is not a cure, does not avert new episodes necessarily, but it is a plan to decrease life-routine disrupting pain for back pain sufferers with recurrent and persistent low back pain.
