Neck pain is an everyday
condition drawing patients into
our Colorado Springs chiropractic clinic! The Chiropractic TRUhealthDR finds
that chronic neck pain is a frequent problem
today. Whether the neck pain is non-specific or chronic, The Chiropractic TRUhealthDR
is ready to help deliver some relief
from the neck pain with a Colorado Springs chiropractic treatment
plan incorporating spinal manipulation and exercise.
EXERCISE OR MANUAL THERAPY…OR BOTH?
Neck pain treatment options flourish.
One common method is manual therapy. (The Chiropractic TRUhealthDR
uses gentle Cox® Technic spinal manipulation.) Another approach
is exercise. A third is combining both. A new
study compared manual therapy, exercise or placebo. Manual therapy by itself
improved perceived neck pain more quickly than exercise.
Therapeutic exercise lessened disability faster
than manual therapy. (1) A further study assessed manual therapy plus exercise to exercise
alone over a month. Manual therapy plus
exercise increased short- and medium-term neck pain more
effectively than exercise alone. (2) The Chiropractic TRUhealthDR has found
that patient participation improves clinical outcomes,
too. Combining the most valuable therapies
for neck pain relief is the way to go.
COX® TECHNIC AND EXERCISE FOR NECK PAIN RELIEF
The Chiropractic TRUhealthDR follows the research.
Research revealed that a safe, gentle form
of manual manipulation, Cox® Technic, decreased cervical spine
intradiscal pressures. (3) In
the clinical comparison study of Cox® flexion distraction alone to
exercise alone for neck pain to the combination of the two
that combining the two was advantageous.
(4) Cox® Technic flexion distraction for neck pain relief eased
pain in a mean of 13.2 visits in a study of cervical spine
radiculopathy patients. (5) The Chiropractic TRUhealthDR finds that
Colorado Springs neck pain patients are ready to help
themselves by doing recommended neck exercises in addition to making their chiropractic treatment visits.
