Chiropractic care deals with the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of mechanical disorders of the musculoskeletal system, including the neck, thorax, and the lumbar spine. Treatment involves manual ...

It is estimated that over 50% of the population consult chiropractors for spinal issues. Chiropractors work in synch with other professionals to relieve pain. They are allowed to order diagnostic tests and imaging, explain to the patient the findings, perform thorough physical examination and plan a management regimen for treatment. They are not allowed to prescribe medications. Their duties usually vary from state to state.

Chiropractic care has several interfaces with other disciplines. It overlaps with manual therapy professions, including osteopathic manipulations, massage therapy, and physical therapy. Occasionally, chiropractors can dispense dietary supplements that benefit the overall wellbeing and the joints. When applied by a skillful and experienced chiropractor, spinal manipulation is overall safe.

Chiropractic care for low back pain: There is continuing conflict of opinion on the efficacy of Spinal Manipulative Therapy (SMT) for nonspecific low back pain. A 2008 review found strong evidence that Spinal Manipulation (SM) is similar in effect to medical care with exercise. A 2007 review found good evidence that SM is moderately effective for low back pain lasting more than 4 weeks; a 2008 literature synthesis found good evidence supporting SM for low back pain regardless of duration. Of four systematic reviews published between 2000 and May 2005, only one recommended SM, and a 2004 Cochrane review found that SM or mobilization is no more or less effective than other standard interventions for back pain. Methods for formulating treatment guidelines for low back pain differ significantly between countries, casting some doubt on their reliability (Edited from Wikipedia)

Chiropractic care for whiplash and neck pain: There is no overall consensus on manual therapies for neck pain. A 2009 systematic review of controlled clinical trials found no evidence that chiropractic spinal manipulation is effective for whiplash injury. A 2008 review found evidence that educational videos, mobilization, and exercises appear more beneficial for whiplash than alternatives; that SM, mobilization, supervised exercise, low-level laser therapy and perhaps acupuncture are more effective for non-whiplash neck pain than alternatives but none of these treatments is clearly superior; and that there is no evidence that any intervention improves prognosis. A 2007 review found that SM and mobilization are effective for neck pain. Of three systematic reviews of SM published between 2000 and May 2005, one reached a positive conclusion, and a 2004 Cochrane review found that SM and mobilization are beneficial only when combined with exercise. A 2005 review found consistent evidence supporting mobilization for acute whiplash, and limited evidence supporting SM for whiplash. (Edited from Wikipedia)

Blood sugar testing is important for Diabetics because their bodies do not process blood sugars properly. Since a Diabetic cannot break down sugar molecules, the sugar cannot be absorbed by the ...

High blood sugar levels can also lead to a multitude of complications, including hypertension, eye problems and poor circulation.
In order to avoid the complications associated with Diabetes disease, glucose control is essential. Glucose control can be achieved through nutrition, exercise, by taking portion control plates and medication.
Proper glucose control can be accomplished by testing blood sugar levels several times daily using a diabetes test strips. low blood sugar Hypoglycemia is a serious condition in which a person has a dangerously low amount of glucose in their bloodstream. Remember glucose is the fuel of the brain cells and the body's cells. The real danger is the brain is running out of fuel. It will shut down if quick action is not taken. Many diabetics are well aware of the risks of having too much glucose in their blood stream (hyperglycemia) and they are starting to take glucose control solution, but some are unaware that having too little glucose is also dangerous.
With too little glucose available, your body does not have enough energy to function properly. Warning signs of hypoglycemia are shakiness, sweating, hunger, confusion, light headedness, sleepiness, weakness, fainting, convulsions, coma, and death. Recently researchers have claimed that just one episode of hypoglycemia leading to loss of consciousness increases the risk of developing alzheimer's dementia by 56% - A serious life-long effect.
What Causes Low Blood Sugar?
People may get low blood sugar levels for many reasons. Sometimes, medications may cause them to have low blood sugar levels, especially if they try a new medication or takes too much of their medication. The Class of Type 2 diabetes oral medications, called Sulfonylureas are notorious for causing low blood sugar. Sulfonylureas tells the pancreas to produce more insulin. If a diabetics fails to eat enough carbs to cover the dose of Glucotrol or the other brands, this medicine will use up glucose that should be used by the brain and other important organs.
How to Overcome Low Blood Sugar
In some cases, when a person with diabetes gets hypoglycemia, it is an indication that the person should not be on a particular medication. In other cases, diabetics that regularly get hypoglycemia may need to pay more attention to their meal planning or to their physical activities; they may need to eat more carbohydrates or balance their exercise with an increased amount of carbohydrates.
Many diabetics, including non-diabetics, suffer the symptoms of occasional low blood sugar levels. However, if a diabetic experiences recurring low blood sugar levels, abnormal, or extreme side effects of low blood sugar levels, it is important for them to speak with a physician immediately.
Many Diabetics are also advised to keep glucose tablets on hand to help them more quickly recover from hypoglycemia. Glucose tablets have a high concentration of sugar that will provide a boost to the blood stream once consumed. Www.typefreediabetes.com offers a variety of glucose tablet options that are easy to carry around in a bag or keep nearby in a drawer or cupboard for easy and quick access.For more info: http://www.typefreediabetes.com]]> http://www.diabetesbuddies.com/discussion/2/ 2007-01-02T04:22:08-08:00 2010-08-03T09:47:20-07:00 Badger http://www.diabetesbuddies.com/account/9/
