CF 268: Postoperative Acupuncture & Activity And Depression
Today we’re going to talk about Postoperative Acupuncture & Activity And Depression
But first, here’s that sweet sweet bumper music
Purchase Dr. Williams’s book, a perfect educational tool and chiropractic research reference for the daily practitioner, from the Amazon store TODAY!
OK, we are back and you have found the Chiropractic Forward Podcast where we are making evidence-based chiropractic fun, profitable, and accessible while we make you and your patients better all the way around. We’re the fun kind of research. Not the stuffy, high-brow, look down your nose at people kind of research.
We’re research talk over a couple of beers. I’m Dr. Jeff Williams and I’m your host for the Chiropractic Forward podcast. I’m so glad you’re spending your time with us learning together.
Chiropractors – I’m hiring at my personal clinic. I need talent, ambition, drive, smart, and easy to get along with associates. If this is you and Amarillo, TX is your speed, send me an email at [email protected] If you haven’t yet I have a few things you should do.
You have found yourself smack dab in the middle of Episode #268 Now if you missed last week’s episode, we talked about Pain Reprocessing Therapy & Meditation-Based Therapy For Chronic Pain. Make sure you don’t miss that info. Keep up with the class.
On the personal end of things…..
Things are steadily picking back up here at Jeff Central. One of our new hires is having a Zoom meeting with our social media crew from the UK this week to get their heads together on TikTok stuff, YouTube ads, and all of that fun stuff. Some of the older guys will fondly remember the days when all you had to do was place an ad in the YellowPages, an ad in the town newspaper, and if you were really fancy, an ad on the radio. Then join Lion’s Club or the Rotary Club. From there…..you were pretty good to go. No other effort really required.
Not only that but reimbursements were better, co-pays cheaper, deductibles less, and premiums cheaper. It’s just dumb to be a healthcare provider these days when you think about it sometimes. You damn well better be in it for the right reasons. That’s for sure. If it’s all about the money, you’re in the wrong place, pal. Now, we have social media, podcasts, content marketing, website SEO, keywords, Google ranking, and all of the other BS that comes along with it. It’s a bunch of crap. But, it’s a bunch of necessary crap if you want to compete and build a business in 2023. Damnit.
Those that have better systems and better people helping them with it all are just naturally going to do better. I’ve tried doing it myself for years. I’m an early adopter. But, it’s gotten too difficult. I’m trying to gather a team of helpers because, honestly, my practice can be so much larger with the right team in place. We’re working on it. Stay tuned. And, in the meantime, if you know of an associate that wants to come to Amarillo and is certified in acupuncture, or can be, send them my email and tell them to get hold of Ol’ Uncle Jeffro at [email protected]
Item #1 Speaking of acupuncture.
The first one today is called, “Wrist–Ankle Acupuncture as Additional Therapy for Postoperative Multimodal Analgesia in Orthopedic Surgery: Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis” by Ning Xu and published in Pain Medicine on 28 April 2022. Dayum. That’s hot.
Why They Did It The present meta-analysis analyzed the efficacy and safety of wrist–ankle acupuncture (WAA) as an additional therapy for postoperative multimodal analgesia after orthopedic surgery.
How They Did It
What They Found
Wrap It Up Wrist–ankle acupuncture as an additional therapy for postoperative multimodal analgesia in orthopedic surgery showed advantages over control treatment in terms of pain relief, use of patient-controlled intravenous analgesia, and occurrence of postoperative adverse events.
Item #2 Our last one this week is called, “Association Between Physical Activity and Risk of Depression” by Matthew Pearce, PhD and published in JAMA Psychiatry on April 13, 2022. Hot potato!
Why They Did It To systematically review and meta-analyze the dose-response association between physical activity and incident depression from published prospective studies of adults.
How They Did It
What They Found
This systematic review and meta-analysis of 15 prospective studies including more than 2 million person-years showed an inverse curvilinear association between physical activity and incident depression, with greater differences in risk at lower exposure levels. Adults meeting physical activity recommendations (equivalent to 2.5 h/wk of brisk walking) had lower risk of depression, compared with adults reporting no physical activity.
Wrap It Up This systematic review and meta-analysis of associations between physical activity and depression suggests significant mental health benefits from being physically active, even at levels below the public health recommendations. Health practitioners should therefore encourage any increase in physical activity to improve mental health. Alright, that’s it. Keep on keepin’ on. Keep changing our profession from your corner of the world. The world needs evidence-based, patient-centered practitioners driving the bus. The profession needs us in the ACA and involved in leadership of state associations. So quit griping about the profession if you’re doing nothing to make it better. Get active, get involved, and make it happen. Let’s get to the message. Same as it is every week.

The Message I want you to know with absolute certainty that when Chiropractic is at its best, you can’t beat the risk vs reward ratio because spinal pain is primarily a movement-related pain and typically responds better to movement-related treatment rather than chemical treatments like pills and shots. When compared to the traditional medical model, research and clinical experience show us patients can get good to excellent results for headaches, neck pain, back pain, and joint pain to name just a few. It’s safe and cost-effective can decrease surgeries & disability and we do it through conservative, non-surgical means with minimal hassle to the patient. And, if the patient treats preventatively after initial recovery, we can usually keep it that way while raising the overall level of health!
Key Point: At the end of the day, patients should have the guarantee of having the best treatment that offers the least harm. When it comes to non-complicated musculoskeletal complaints…. That’s Chiropractic!
