Chiropractic Manipulation Relieves the Hurting Spine

May 02, 2017

The spine appreciates spinal manipulation! It undoubtedly appreciates what spinal manipulation feels like and rewards its owner with relief of back pain and relaxation. When you bring your Fernandina Beach spine to Amelia Chiropractic Clinic, Amelia Chiropractic Clinic treats it gently, safely and effectively. The Fernandina Beach chiropractic treatment plan incorporates alleviating, research-proven spinal manipulation.

Stops Painful Messages 

Spinal manipulation halts back pain’s messages to the body that it hurts. Amelia Chiropractic Clinic understands that our Fernandina Beach chiropractic back pain patients want to stop the hurt. Spinal manipulation has an anti-nociceptive - anti-pain - effect on back pain. Spinal manipulation eases back pain by affecting the pain messages formed by irritated spinal nerves. In one particular study, spinal manipulation more effectively interfered with pain messages than did mechanical stimulus (no significant effect) or tactile sensation (no effect). (1) Amelia Chiropractic Clinic offers Fernandina Beach spinal manipulation to stop the painful irritation of the spinal discs.

Improving Water Content 

The intervertebral disc of the spine depends on its water content to be healthy and not easily bothered by pain, maintain its height and play its role in providing spinal mobility and being the shock-absorber between the spinal vertebral bones! That may simplify the disc’s role a bit, but the spinal disc is central to spinal movement and critical to back pain relief. It’s the most pain-sensitive structure in the spine! (2) Amelia Chiropractic Clinic treats the disc and the spine. When the spine is loaded by compression or even during exercise, it responds. How? T2 MRI images show reduced value meaning that water content is low in the facet joints and the nucleus pulposus. (3) That is the reason that it’s so important to stay hydrated, drink water, and treat the disc to Fernandina Beach chiropractic care!

Disc Height Increases 

Lumbar spinal discs do respond to Fernandina Beach chiropractic. Intervertebral disc height increases with traction. (4) That’s what happens with Cox Technic, the form of spinal manipulation Amelia Chiropractic Clinic chooses to use 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 decreases. Spinal nerves are irritated more easily. Amelia Chiropractic Clinic’s Fernandina Beach chiropractic care helps reduce that irritation and the associated Fernandina Beach back pain.

Amelia Chiropractic Clinic uses spinal manipulation to reduce back pain. Together with spinal manipulation, Amelia Chiropractic Clinic endorses nutritional advice about supplements with glycosaminoglycan elements glucosamine and chondroitin – both tied to the sulfate radical which imbibes fluid. It is all part of your Fernandina Beach treatment plan.
