What is the back pain project all about

The Back Pain Project is a special program to address chronic lower back problems that are unresolved with conventional treatments. Here are some examples of different back pain treatments;

  1. Medications: Over-the-counter pain relievers such as acetaminophen, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) like ibuprofen or naproxen, or prescription drugs like muscle relaxants or opioids may be prescribed to manage the pain.

  2. Physical therapy: Exercise, stretching, and other physical therapies can help improve flexibility and strength, reduce pain, and prevent future injuries.

  3. Chiropractic care: Spinal adjustments or other manual therapies may be recommended by a chiropractor to alleviate pain and improve spinal function.

  4. Injections: Steroid injections or nerve block injections may be used to reduce inflammation and relieve pain.

  5. Surgery: Surgery may be considered for patients with severe chronic low back pain who have not responded to other treatments, but it is typically reserved for specific conditions such as herniated discs, spinal stenosis, or degenerative disc disease.

It’s important to note that treatment options for chronic low back pain may vary depending on the individual case, and patients should always consult with their healthcare provider to determine the best course of action for their specific condition.

When these interventions fail the Back Pain Project will prevail. We offer cutting-edge therapies so our patients can get the relief they need to go about the normal activities of daily living, pain-free. Call 203-656-3638 and set up a consultation

ABOUT THE BACK PAIN PROJECT

The Back Project is an extension of Core Health Darien which is primarily a chiropractic office. The chiropractic connection leads to confusion in some people’s minds that chiropractic care is all alike. The distinction between Core Health Darien and The Back Pain Project is that there is more non-chiropractic therapy offered by the Back Pain Project. The goal of The Back Pain Project is to offer lasting relief to people who suffer from chronic lower back pain.

People who may have tried surgery and have not found relief would be great candidates for the Back Pain Project. Those who have not found help with traditional chiropractic care for their back problems are great candidates for relief. The same goes for failed physical therapy treatments. The program lasts about 12 weeks and requires 2 visits per week. As with many treatments, there are no guarantees of results. In fact, the patient needs to set appropriate goals that are mutually acceptable to the doctor and patient. The goals must be reasonable in the eye of the doctor. A patient’s willingness to exercise outside the office is required for any chance of success in eliminating lower back pain. We want the patient to be pain-free. However, with chronic conditions, you can expect setbacks at various times. Exercise is the best way to prevent relapses. Even then occasional back pain is still possible. We want to make a dramatic difference in patients’ quality of life. Less pain, better sleep, and a more active lifestyle are only scratching the surface of what the Back Pain Project is all about. The Back Pain Project uses several different modalities each visit to reach our patients’ goals. We have found that there is no single answer to chronic lower back pain. The numerous therapies include Active Release Technique
