Fernandina Beach Neck Pain Responds to Chiropractic Care
Does any neck pain sufferer want to get an xray or MRI or injection or surgery? Nope! Recent studies are explaining how receiving spinal manipulation – 90% of which is done by chiropractors - may help such Fernandina Beach neck pain patients avoid treatment escalation to imaging/injections/surgery. Amelia Chiropractic Clinic is ready to help with that!
EFFECTS OF SPINAL MANIPULATION FOR NECK PAIN
Neck pain alongside Fernandina Beach back pain are leading causes of disability around the world and here in Fernandina Beach. Chiropractic is being reported as a safe, effective option for management of back and neck pain for quite a few such patients. Chiropractic is described as care centered on spine care and treatment of spine pain conditions with spinal manipulation. Spinal manipulation is described as hindering back and neck pain partly by spine related mechanisms and potentially via peripheral mechanisms that regulate inflammatory pain responses. More research is called upon to determine just what the specific and non-specific effects of spinal manipulation are. (1) We use spinal manipulation daily at Amelia Chiropractic Clinic.
SPINAL MANIPULATION CONTAINS NECK PAIN TREATMENT ESCALATION
Spinal manipulation for neck pain is shown to reduce the risk of treatment escalation. 42% of neck pain patients wanting relief find that their treatment is heightened to include care like imaging, injection, emergency room visit, or surgery. Such risk was 2.38 times greater in those who got care other than spinal manipulation. Spinal manipulation reduced the risk. Over 90% of spinal manipulation is done by chiropractors in the US. (2) Your Fernandina Beach chiropractor uses specialized, research-based, safe, and gentle spinal manipulation for neck pain relief.
SPECIFIC FORM OF DOCUMENTED SPINAL MANIPULATION FOR NECK PAIN RELIEF
As an example of how a specific form of spinal manipulation, Cox® Technic flexion distraction, facilitates in relieving pain, a patient case about a patient with neurofibromatosis who experienced headaches, temporomandibular discomfort as well as neck, scapular and lumbar pain, manually applied cervical spine flexion distraction spinal manipulation along with myofascial release, patient education about adapting her workplace ergonomics, and at-home care reduced her neck and thoracic spine pain as well as headache frequency. (3) Amelia Chiropractic Clinic works one-on-one with each neck pain sufferer to provide him/her the tools and understanding to attain such relief.
PATIENT SELF-CARE AND UNDERSTANDING
Giving chronic nonspecific Fernandina Beach neck pain patients things they can do to help themselves and to understand their neck pain enhances their outcomes. A study comparing therapeutic exercise alone to therapeutic exercise plus pain neuroscience education to assist their understanding of their condition found that the combination helped more. The combination reduced the patients’ pain-disability indices, pain catastrophizing thoughts, and fear-avoidance beliefs. (4) That is the goal of care for us at Amelia Chiropractic Clinic: less pain.
