Chiropractic Manipulation Benefits the Hurting Spine

The spine is grateful for spinal manipulation! It certainly is thankful for what spinal manipulation feels like and rewards its owner with back pain relief and relaxation. When you take your Fernandina Beach spine to Amelia Chiropractic Clinic, Amelia Chiropractic Clinic treats it gently, safely and effectively. The Fernandina Beach chiropractic treatment plan incorporates relieving, research-proven spinal manipulation.

Stops Painful Messages 

Spinal manipulation halts back pain’s messages to the body that it hurts. Amelia Chiropractic Clinic knows that our Fernandina Beach chiropractic back pain patients want to stop the hurt. Spinal manipulation possesses an anti-nociceptive - anti-pain - effect on back pain. Spinal manipulation reduces back pain by affecting the pain messages created by irritated spinal nerves. In one particular study, spinal manipulation more effectively slowed pain messages than did mechanical stimulus (no significant effect) or tactile sensation (no effect). (1) Amelia Chiropractic Clinic employs Fernandina Beach spinal manipulation to discontinue the spinal disc irritation.

Improving Water Content 

The intervertebral disc of the spine relies on its water content to be healthy and not easily irritated, maintain its height and do its job of providing spinal mobility and being the shock-absorber in the middle of the spinal vertebral bones! That may diminish the essence of the disc’s role a bit, but the spinal disc is vital to spinal movement and critical to back pain relief. It’s the most pain-sensitive structure in the spine! (2) Amelia Chiropractic Clinic cares for the disc and the spine. When the spine is loaded by compression or even during exercise, it reacts. How? T2 MRI images reveal reduced value meaning that water content is low in the facet joints and the nucleus pulposus. (3) That’s why it is so important to stay hydrated, drink water, and treat the disc to Fernandina Beach chiropractic care!

Disc Height Increases 

Discs in the lower back do react to Fernandina Beach chiropractic. Intervertebral disc height enlarges with traction. (4) That’s what happens with Cox Technic, the form of spinal manipulation Amelia Chiropractic Clinic offers and is well-experienced in delivering. With Cox Technic, disc height enlarges by 17%, and spinal area opens by 28%. (5) When discs degenerate, they lose disc height. Spinal area diminishes. Spinal nerves are aggravated more easily. Amelia Chiropractic Clinic’s Fernandina Beach chiropractic care assists in diminishing that irritation and the associated Fernandina Beach back pain.

Amelia Chiropractic Clinic provides spinal manipulation to reduce back pain. Along with spinal manipulation, Amelia Chiropractic Clinic endorses nutritional advice about supplements with glycosaminoglycan elements glucosamine and chondroitin – both linked to the sulfate radical which absorbs fluid. It’s all incorporated into your Fernandina Beach treatment plan.
