Shoreline Medical Services/ Hutter Chiropractic Office Cares for Veterans and Locals Alike with Back Pain and Stress

Stress of life and stress of military life are worrying. Chiropractic care offers relieving care to both military and non-military folks alike. New studies focused on the benefits of chiropractic for military veterans revealed benefits of chiropractic care to which Groton chiropractic care patients can connect: improvement in pain, strength, and dealing with pain. Shoreline Medical Services/ Hutter Chiropractic Office is the Groton chiropractic pain and stress relief center!

STRESS AND PAIN

Veterans struggle with stress and pain. The VA System is working on addressing veterans’ needs. Medicine is at the front in the VA care system while many veterans are going outside that system for additional care. A national study of veterans found that 52% used complementary and integrated health options to deal with their issues with pain and stress reduction/relaxation on top of the list: 44% massage, 37% chiropractic, 34% mindfulness, 24% other meditation, and 25% yoga. 84% reported they are interested in undertaking at least one of these approaches: massage, chiropractic, acupressure, reflexology, progressive relaxation, acupressure. They were far more likely to try these beyond the VA System. (1) Veterans are not unlike you! They pursue Groton chiropractic care outside the regular system at times, too!

HELPING VETERANS REGAIN THEIR STRENGTH

Veterans with back pain like other back pain sufferers lose their strength and quality of life. Chiropractic care can frequently help. Veterans particularly suffer with post-traumatic stress disorder which causes difficulties with their pain management care. Chiropractic care within the VA system takes into consideration such overlying issues. Chiropractors in the VA System would want to fastidiously diagnose and manage PTSD veterans to ensure they are getting all the care they need. (2) Your Groton chiropractor thinks each of our Groton back pain patients’ other issues in the same way to optimize positive clinical outcomes.  

IMPROVING STRENGTH IN LOW BACK PAIN SUFFERING VETERANS

One positive clinical outcome sought by all back pain sufferers is to perform activities of daily living as they want and need. Back pain is notorious for interfering with daily activities. For veterans, lifting, endurance and balance are crucial daily activities. Back pain suffering veterans were sent to chiropractic care or a wait list for four weeks. The chiropractic patients bettered their pulling strength by 5.08 kgs while the wait list group’s pull strength reduced by 7.43 kgs. Trunk muscle endurance, disability, pain intensity and fear avoidance behavior all got better with chiropractic care of active military personnel with low back pain. (3) Plus, after back surgery, some veterans will still hurt and want some relief.  90.3% of VA chiropractors reported seeing at least 1 post-back surgery fusion patient in the past month. (4) Chiropractic care for post-surgical continued pain is showing itself to be beneficial.  Shoreline Medical Services/ Hutter Chiropractic Office offers such pain decrasing, strength increasing care for Groton back pain sufferers, too!
