There are the same numbers of qualified and unqualified "professionals" in the medical field as in any other area or industry. However, the most important thing about this discrepancy is which one you choose when considering your personal health.
At Vancouver Disc Center of America, we will not only "talk" to you about your condition and how to possibly remedy it, but we will also SHOW you, step by step, how to identify and deal with it.
It is important that patients be fully informed about what the doctor sees as the problem and the why and how of fixing it.
The patient needs to be an integral part of the decision on how to move forward, finding the most comfortable but effective way of dealing with the illness or hindrance to their well-being and quality of life.
Schedule today and allow Dr. Troy to walk you through one of the best consultations you will experience, based on OVER 30 years of serving and training in medical/chiropractic care.

FAILED BACK SURGERY SYNDROME PAIN:
How Common? Chiropractic Helped Reduce Pain and Opioid Use
Researchers stated that degenerative disc disease and low back pain turns into chronic low back pain for many after back surgery discectomy. They also reported that nearly 15% of back surgery patients had failed back surgical syndrome (FBSS) with back pain extending beyond 6 months post-surgery. (1) Chiropractic care is well-known for its conservative treatment of back pain and neck pain.
Now, the chiropractic Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain Management, Used by Vancouver Disc Center of America, is showing itself as beneficial for relieving post-surgical FBSS spine pain.
A retrospective study of 69 such patients treated by 15 chiropractors experienced in applying Cox® Technic protocols documented greater than 50% relief of pain for 81% of patients in a mean of 11 visits over a 49-day period of active care.
This relief at the end of care continued at 2 years follow-up: 78.6% continued with relief. The percentage of relief remained high: 71.6% at the end of care and 70% at 24 months. (2) In a prospective study of patients treated with Cox® Technic, 8 of 11 post-surgical FBSS patients reported reduced or discontinued opioid use. (3) We are here to help relieve FBSS back pain that lingers after back surgery and get you back to enjoying life!

Many practitioners may miss seeing abnormalities found on an MRI - especially if they need to be trained or certified to read them.
Attending physicians must understand how MRI findings correlate clinically, historically, and biomechanically.

In other words, they must pay attention to the actual findings, the patient's history, and current condition.

Have any questions or concerns about your doctor's findings?
You can call us at 360-727-0787 and schedule a second opinion with Dr. Troy, who is certified in correct and proper Imagery Interpretation and who attends ongoing training and conferences throughout the year.

DISCOVER NON-DRUG PAIN RELIEF THROUGH CHIROPRACTIC CARE -
Back and neck pain are among the most common causes of chronic discomfort, often leading individuals to rely on opioids for relief. While effective for short-term pain management, opioids carry risks of dependency and side effects. Chiropractic care offers a proven, drug-free alternative that effectively addresses pain at its source, reducing the need for opioid medication.

Recent research has supported the effectiveness of chiropractic care, such as spinal manipulation and decompression. A 2025 study by Trager et al. found that chiropractic care for sciatica not only alleviated pain but also led to fewer opioid-related adverse events. (1) Similarly, Kruse et al. reported that patients with failed back surgery syndrome significantly reduced their opioid use after just three months of manual spinal decompression therapy, Cox® Technic. (2) Beyond pain relief, chiropractic care delivers additional benefits by reducing reliance on opioids. This minimizes the risk of addiction and avoids the unpleasant side effects associated with long-term opioid use. Chiropractic treatment empowers patients to take a proactive, holistic approach to their health, fostering long-term recovery and an improved quality of life.

If you’re living with back or neck pain and seeking an effective, science-backed alternative to opioids, chiropractic care offers a safe and trusted solution. Focusing on addressing the root cause of pain allows you to regain control over your health and well-being. Come check out our chiropractic care options for pain relief!

TIP OF THE MONTH:
Try Sit-To-Stand Combo Exercise to Help Your Spine!

Simple is often best! Pairing sit-to-stand exercises with blood flow restriction exercise (BFR) could be a game-changer for those struggling with low back pain. A 2024 study by Lee KH and Chon SC shows this powerful duo relieves pain and boosts muscle growth for individuals with back instability. (3) Sit-to-stand exercises are simple yet effective for building strength and mobility, while BFR ramps up circulation and triggers muscle adaptation without overloading your spine. Together, they create a safe, impactful solution to help back pain patients rebuild strength, stability, and confidence in everyday life.

Red Light Therapy (RLT), also known as low-level laser therapy (LLLT) or photobiomodulation (PBM), is commonly used to help reduce pain and inflammation, promote healing, and support tissue repair. Here's how it works and how it helps with pain:

What Red Light Therapy Does for Pain Relief:
🔴 Reduces Inflammation
RLT decreases the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines and oxidative stress.
This is particularly useful for joint pain, arthritis, and chronic muscle pain.

🔴 Stimulates Cellular Repair
Light in the red and near-infrared spectrum (typically 600–850 nm) penetrates tissues and stimulates mitochondrial activity, increasing ATP production (cell energy), which supports faster healing of damaged tissues.

🔴 Improves Blood Flow
Vasodilation (widening of blood vessels) improves circulation, delivering oxygen and nutrients to affected areas, and flushing out pain-causing waste products.

🔴 Blocks Pain Signals
RLT may modulate the nervous system to reduce pain perception, especially in conditions like neuropathy or post-surgical recovery.

🔴 Accelerates Tissue & Nerve Regeneration
Studies show benefits for soft tissue injuries, nerve pain, and recovery from strains, sprains, or surgeries.

Top 6 Natural Alternatives to Ibuprofen
1. Extra Virgin Olive Oil - Why It Works - Extra-virgin olive oil contains oleocanthal, a compound with properties similar to those of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) like ibuprofen. It inhibits enzymes involved in the prostaglandin-biosynthesis pathways, which are responsible for the sensation of pain thus providing significant relief. It has been found that about 3.5 tablespoons of this oil are equivalent to 1 200-mg Ibuprofen tablet.

2. Turmeric (Curcumin) - Why It Works - Turmeric’s active ingredient, curcumin, is a potent anti-inflammatory and antioxidant. Studies show it can reduce inflammation just as effectively as ibuprofen but without harmful side effects.
It works by inhibiting a major inflammatory mediator, NF-kappa-B, which exacerbates pain in those with arthritis and other inflammatory diseases.

3. Cat’s Claw - Why It Works - Cat’s claw contains oxindole alkaloids, which reduce inflammation by modulating the immune response. This helps prevent the production of prostaglandins, the hormones that cause pain and inflammation. It also inhibits the expression of genes linked to inflammation. It’s particularly effective for conditions like arthritis.

4. White Willow Bark - Why It Works - White willow bark contains salicin, a natural compound that the body converts into salicylic acid. This provides pain relief similar to aspirin but with fewer side effects.
White Willow Bark has been used traditionally to treat osteoarthritis, lower back pain, and other painful conditions such as tendonitis and bursitis.

5. Boswellia (Frankincense) - Why It Works - Boswellic acids in Boswellia inhibit inflammatory enzymes, making it particularly effective for conditions like osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis.
It can also prevent cartilage loss, therefore blocking the progression of these diseases while providing relief from pain and discomfort.

6. Capsaicin - Why It Works - Capsaicin depletes substance P, a neurotransmitter that transmits pain signals to the brain. It’s particularly effective for nerve pain and arthritis.
