CF 266: Risk/Reward For Low Back Pain Treatments & Chiropractors In An Interprofessional Practice Setting
Today we’re going to talk about Risk/Reward For Low Back Pain Treatments & Chiropractors In An Interprofessional Practice Setting
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 #266 Now if you missed last week’s episode , we talked about where to adjust and the types of adjustments that were most beneficial. Make sure you don’t miss that info. Keep up with the class. On the personal end of things…..
Man oh man…..we’ve been having such an interesting time around these parts. If you’ve been listening along with me, I lost 3 of my 4 full time employees within only a 2 week span. That’s almost like starting completely over. Stressful, kind of shock and awe type of thing. But, turns out, if you have a spouse or partner that knows the front desk and has the flexibility in their work schedule to put other things on the back burner and come in and help you turn it around, then that’s freaking gold, people. Listen to the words exiting my piehole. “Make sure your significant other knows how to run the front desk, bill, verify insurance, and put in charges. Without this, we would have been in terrible shape. My wife is my failsafe. She’s fierce when backed into a corner as well. So, when we kind of feel on the defensive, BAM!
Mama bear comes out and makes it happen.
And she has. She’s the gamechanger. In case you haven’t followed along, we lost all 3 within 2 weeks. The first two both gave us one month notice. The last one, our front desk staffer, gave us no notice at all. Just up and quit. Thanks to my wife, we were up and running on day one and haven’t missed a beat. In fact, we’ve already grown our weekly visits. Just two weeks in with a new front desk that cares and is knocking it out for us.
Turns out, my low numbers all this Fall and Winter weren’t bad marketing and all that. It was that the simple jobs or booking and re-booking weren’t being tended to the way we asked. That didn’t just fall on the shoulders of one person. It was several. Now that we’ve started from scratch, our systems are being re-implemented and it’s making a difference quickly. Now you get to not hear about it anymore very soon. I’m only sharing with you so that, should you go through some of the stuff I’ve dealt with recently, you’ll have a broader knowledge base to make corrections from. When you’d increased your marketing yet the numbers remain low, it’s probably internal. Not external.
I’m 50 and still learning lessons.
During the Fall 2022 Slowdown ….that’s what it will forever be referred to by the way….the Fall 2022 Slowdown…..we brought Darcy Sullivan of Propel on board to get our website SEO enpoint and dialed in. If I’m going to have a slowdown, it’s not going to be because of being cheap and not taking care of the #1 source of referrals….which is Google.
So I brought Darcy on and did the package where they basically do the whole thing for me because, let’s be honest, I don’t have the time nor the expertise for it. We’ve gone through the process and now she’s updated my website and we’re ready to see what happens with the Google machine. Between Darcy at Propel and my wife handling front desk duties until she gets the new staffer trained up….I’m in a no-lose situation my friends. I’m looking forward to reporting back on how well Darcy’s crew does for us. Now, let’s get going with the research, shall we?
Item #1
The first on today is called, “Benefits and harms of treatments for chronic non-specific low back pain without radiculopathy: Systematic review and meta-analysis” by Ronald J. Feise and published in The Spinal Journal on November 15, 2022. Dayum. That’s hot.
Why They Did It
The aim of this review was to compare the benefits and harms of treatments for the management of chronic low back pain without radiculopathy and to report the findings in a format that facilitates direct comparison (Benefit-Harm Scale: level 1 to 7).
How They Did It
What They Found
Wrap It Up
Before getting to the next one, Next thing, go to https://www.tecnobody.com/en/products That’s Tecnobody as in T-E-C-nobody. They literally have the most impressive clinical equipment I’ve ever seen. I own the ISO Free and am looking to add more to my office this year or next. The equipment you’re going to find over there can be marketed in your community like crazy because you’ll be the only one with something that damn cool in your office. When you decide you can’t live without those products, send me an email and I’ll give you the hookup. They will 100% differentiate your clinic from your competitors.
I have to tell you, Dr. Chris Howson, the inventor of the Drop Release tool re-activated the code! Use the code HOTSTUFF upon purchase at droprelease.com & get $50 off your purchase. Would you like to spend 5-10 minutes doing pin and stretch and all of that? Or would you rather use a drop release to get the same or similar results in just a handful of seconds. I love it, my patients love it, and I know yours will too. droprelease.com and the discount code is HOTSTUFF. Go do it.
Item #2
Our last one this week is called, “Chiropractors in interprofessional practice settings: a narrative review exploring context, outcomes, barriers and facilitators” by Corrie Myburgh and published in Biomed central on 16 December 2022. Hot potato!
Why They Did It
To determine the added value of interprofessional interventions over existing mono-professional practice, elucidation of specific health care issues, service delivery contexts and benefits of combining multiple service provider is required.
How They Did It
Wrap It Up
So, we need some research. We want to be part of the team so let’s prove that we can provide value and be a valuable member of the team. 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.
Store Remember the evidence-informed brochures and posters at chiropracticforward.com.
Purchase Dr. Williams’s book, a perfect educational tool and chiropractic research reference for the daily practitioner, from the Amazon store TODAY!
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!
