NECK PAIN THIS TIME OF YEAR?! Most Chiropractic Clinic IS HERE TO HELP!

Joy! Joy! Joy! That’s this time of year…for most of us. For some it’s a pain in the neck. We’re|We are here to help! Chiropractic care at Most Chiropractic Clinic is calm, effective, and proven to alleviate pain in a reasonably short timeframe. Non-specific neck pain patients reported that they felt that their neck disability was improved after one cervical spine manipulation treatment. (1) Even for more difficult cases (like the following), The Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain Management delivers pain-relieving results. One patient with neck pain due to narrowing of the cervical spine foramen and radiating arm pain due to a C6-C7 cervical disc herniation reported less pain and better function in 10 visits in a month. The patient was without pain and fully functional 8 months later. (2) Another patient with a post-surgical C6-7 fusion who had neck pain and back pain reported decreased pain (which dropped from 8/10 to 3/10) in 12 visits in 3 months with Cox® treatment. (3) A review of published papers on the effectiveness of manual therapy for chronic neck pain, described as a safe and less painful method to lessen chronic neck pain, proposed that manipulative therapy lowers the degree of chronic neck pain and neck disability. (4) And most patients don’t have to continue care ‘forever’. A recent study documented that chiropractors do not recommend continued care except for certain types of neck pain patients: only 39% of patients were proposed to continue care beyond 4 weeks with long duration of neck pain being the strongest guide for continued care. (5) Our Cox® Technic treatment plan for cervical spine pain is gentle and effective for Murfreesboro neck pain whether it is acute or chronic, going into the shoulder or down the arm or centralized to the neck. This time of year, neck pain patients walk into this Murfreesboro chiropractic office daily! We are ready to help each one find a little more JOY of the season!

 

Murfreesboro CHIROPRACTIC TIP OF THE MONTH: Exercise those Neck Muscles!

Cervical spine pain patients who want sustained Murfreesboro pain relief often get it once they add exercise. A simple elastic band exercise program proved effective for non-specific neck pain lessening and better strength of cervical spine flexor and extensor muscles as well as scapular. (6) To improve neck pain and disability effects, a study found that isometric exercises significantly lessened neck disability index scores after 4 weeks for cervical spondylosis patients. (7) These are straightforward exercises that do not take long to do or to have a positive effect on neck pain. So good!
