Hi everyone, Dr. Jeff Crockett here with Utah Spinal Works, broadcasting from Highland, Utah. This month, we’ve been delving into the world of sciatic pain, bulging discs, and herniated discs. Today, I want to shed light on our approach and present some alternatives for those seeking relief.
As you might have seen in our previous posts, there are steps you can take at home to address these conditions, such as specific exercises designed to alleviate discomfort. Additionally, at our office, we provide chiropractic care, soft tissue therapy, and decompression therapy. Remarkably, within just 30 days, our patients typically experience an 80% improvement in their condition.
Contrast this with the alternative methods available. Often, individuals start with spine injections containing steroids, which provide temporary relief but wear off after a few months, leaving them in a similar or even worse state. This cycle may lead to surgical intervention, but the long-term outcomes are far from ideal.
Studies show that spinal fusion and decompression surgeries yield mixed results. While some patients feel marginally better, a significant portion continue to experience persistent discomfort. A staggering 30% require additional operations within five years, and by the ten-year mark, that figure doubles to around 60%.
At Utah Spinal Works, our focus is to elevate your quality of life without constraints. Pain is not a normal state, and you shouldn’t have to endure it or manage it on a daily basis. Our holistic approach encompasses chiropractic care, soft tissue therapy, exercise routines, and even weight loss programs, as excess weight can exacerbate disc-related issues.
If you’re determined to regain your highest quality of life, free from limitations and discomfort, we’re here to help. Don’t hesitate to reach out to us at 801-770-4333 or visit our website at utahspinalworks.com. Remember, pain is not something you have to accept – let’s work together to find a lasting solution.
