 Sitka chiropractor-patient benefits are plentiful and especially apparent to episodic migraine sufferers.

 
BENEFITS OF THE CHIROPRACTOR-PATIENT RELATIONSHIP:

Sitka Migraine Sufferers Know

A recent study of women with episodic migraine treated with comprehensive chiropractic care highlights the benefits of the chiropractor-patient relationship for maximal clinical outcomes. The women (a) stated that they were more informed of how musculoskeletal pain, tension and posture elicited migraine, (b) altered their idea of chiropractic as just spinal manipulation, and (c) found the chiropractor/patient relationship to be essential and valuable in handling their migraines effectively. (1) That’s chiropractic’s forte! Chiropractors like yours at Arctic Chiropractic, Sitka take the time to clearly explain the painful condition to our patients. We want to be sure our Sitka chiropractic patients know what is going on to boost their participation in its relieving care. The best clinical outcomes result from an open partnership of in-office care and at-home care, of chiropractor treatment and communication skill and patient participation and teamwork. Whether migraines are your pain condition or back pain or neck pain or arm pain or sciatic leg pain is, we at Arctic Chiropractic, Sitka are your healthcare partner to contain the pain.

Listen to this PODCAST with Dr. Jeremy Heidt on The Back Doctors Podcast with Dr. Michael Johnson as he describes his use of the Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain Management to guide a neck pain and migraine sufferer to pain relief.

Sitka hip fracture risk is reduced by multivitamin supplementation.

Sitka CHIROPRACTIC TIP OF THE MONTH:
Take a Multivitamin to Decrease Fragility Hip Fracture

Hip fractures are a serious issue for healthcare systems and their patients around the world. A meta-analysis of over 80,000 subjects – 21% male, average age 69 years of age – reported that multivitamin use was significantly associated with a decreased risk of suffering a fragility hip fracture. Multivitamin supplementation was significantly protective for osteoporotic hip fracture. (2) This is positive news for Sitka chiropractic patients worried about hip fracture because they are likely already taking a simple multivitamin instead of taking a lot of single ones. Reducing Sitka hip fracture risk may result from taking a multivitamin supplement each day!
