A Word or Two From Dr. Adam


Study: Use of Chiropractic in the VA Rising Steeply
Arlington, Va. --The use of chiropractic services in the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) health care system has seen a steep rise
over more than a decade, according to research published in the Journal of Manipulative and Physiological Therapeutics(JMPT),
the official scientific journal of the American Chiropractic Association (ACA).
The studys authors, who analyzed VA national data collected between 2004 and 2015, discovered an increase of more than 800
percent in the number of patients receiving the services of doctors of chiropractic. While authors attribute the increase to a natural
growth of the chiropractic service, which was only implemented on-site at the VA in 2004, they also suggest it may be attributed to
the successful performance of VA chiropractors and the perceived value of their care, among other factors.
The fact that these services have expanded consistently and substantially beyond the minimum mandated level may suggest that
some VA decision-makers perceive value in providing chiropractic care, the study notes.
Key findings from the study show that:
the annual number of patients seen in VA chiropractic clinics increased by 821 percent;
the annual number of chiropractic visits increased by 694 percent;
the total number of chiropractic clinics grew from 27 to 65 (9 percent annually);
the number of chiropractor employees rose from 13 to 86 (21 percent annually); and
female and younger patients received chiropractic care at VA clinics at a greater rate than the national VA outpatient popu-
lation. This demographic tendency is consistent with the cohort of veterans from the recent conflicts in Iraq and Af-
ghanistan, which is known to have a high prevalence of musculoskeletal conditions, the study authors note.

"ACA commends the VA for its important work to expand


access to chiropractic services to the nations veterans, said
ACA President David Herd, DC. Its vitally important that
all of our veterans have access to non-drug approaches to pain
management such as those offered by chiropractic physicians,
particularly in light of the opioid epidemic that is gripping our
country. Many veterans returning from overseas suffer from
musculoskeletal ailments, which respond well to chiroprac-
tics patient-centered and drug-free approach.
Doctors of chiropractic often referred to as chiropractors or
chiropractic physicians practice a hands-on, drug-free ap-
proach to health care that includes patient examination, diag-
nosis and treatment primarily of disorders of the musculoskel-
etal system and the nervous system, and the effects of these
disorders on general health. Chiropractors have broad diag-
nostic skills and are also trained to recommend therapeutic
and rehabilitative exercises, as well as to provide nutritional,
dietary and lifestyle counseling.

OFFEE CLUTCHIN WITH FLOWERS GALORE!

What a wonderful month July was. I am looking forward to a fabulous August. But I do think summer is moving much too
fast.
Seniors are busy getting their senior pictures done. We chose Anthony Bley Photography for Kassidys senior pictures. An-
thony is the son in law of Kathy Rank. He and his wife Kittrick were simply awesome. So personable and they made the pho-
to shoot fun.
I delivered two young ladies, Kassidy Ashbeck and Madelyn Korbas, to University of Whitewater for Theatre Camp for a
week in July.
Our kids are gearing up for their upcoming sports seasons because pretty soon the high school sports will be starting. Re-
member, let the players play, let the coaches- coach, let the officials officiate, let the parents and spectators be positive.
Congratulations to Michelle Boor for being selected as our new Athletic Director.
If you are interested in attending games. The sports schedules are already posted on the Wabeno School Website. I personally
hope to see more school staff, administration and school board members at our sporting events, not only the ones that pertain
to their children. The local school board is a critical link from our school to the public. School board members serve their
communities in several important ways one way is to show their school spirit and the support for our athletic programs.
Plus- how great does it look to players to see their board members and administration there to support them?!
The REDS sure are popping out in all my Mandeville planters. Thank goodness we had some hot humid weather to help them
along. Flower lesson: Do research on flowers. All flowers react differently to climates. Some like water, some dont want to
be overwatered. Some thrive in hot humid weather, some do not. Those few days of humidity sure helped my hanging Man-
deville baskets bloom out. I say bring on the hot weather! Ellis at the motel sure is taking care of the planter in front of his
house. It looks great Ellis! Its amazing what can happen when flowers are taken care of properly.
Backhaus Sportsman's Retreat is putting together a Bean Bag Toss tournament on August 5th with the money raised being
donated to Ties That Bind (for Cancer patients).
Games will be set up down Main Street in front of Backhaus , Wabeno Bowl and Pichottas Pub. Stop in at previously men-
tioned businesses to sign up. Join us for a fun filled day!
Our volleyball teams hosted another Rod Wilde volleyball camp. Olympic volleyball player, Rod Wilde and his team were
back in Wabeno training our girls. Its always a fun week
when Rod and his team come.
Congrats to Taylor Neitzer for receiving the Don Huettl
Memorial scholarship and the Rick Van Camp Memorial
scholarship.
Good luck to Spencer Huettl who will be leaving for the
Air Force next week. Thank you Spencer for choosing to
serve our country. You will do great things!
