In treating neck pain, stretching and spinal mobilization have their places in managing the relief of the pain, disability and range of motion loss. They’re needed. Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc treats many Fort Wayne neck pain sufferers to return their lost range of motion due to pain. Stretching is newly documented as particularly beneficial and can be a helpful adjunct to the chiropractic treatment plan. 

BENEFITS OF ADDING STRETCHING TO NECK PAIN TREATMENT PROCEDURES

Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc incorporates spinal manipulation and mobilization, nutrition, exercise, and research-suggested stretching in the overall treatment plan for neck pain be it non-specific mechanical neck pain or cervical spine radiculopathy. Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc utilizes The Cox® Technic System for Spinal Pain Management to treat neck pain. [[A|In one]17] study, Cox® Technic protocols produced total resolution of the patient’s subjective pain from a large C5-C6 disc herniation. (1) In a retrospective study of 39 cervical spine radiculopathy patients, Cox® flexion distraction delivered pain reduction in 13.2 treatments (range 6 to 37). (2) A newer paper reports that for non-specific mechanical neck pain, the incorporation of stretching to the plan was more helpful at improving cervical spine motions of extension, right rotation and lateral flexion ranges of motion without touching pain and disability. (3) That’s where spinal manipulation and mobilization come into play. They help ease the pain and disability part. Including stretching and active cervical range of motion exercise is beneficial and has its role in the treatment of neck pain. A well-rounded treatment plan for neck pain relief is key! Another research project further described that neck stretching is one of the most helpful physical therapy interventions.  Static and diagonal active stretching were helpful at decreasing neck disability and improving cervical spine range of motion. Further, cervical range of motion values significantly showed increases at 4 and 6 to 8 weeks [[post-after the ]59] study demonstrating beneficial long-term effects of stretching for neck pain, disability, and function. (4) Keeping up with the neck pain relief studies, Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc makes sure to present benefits of various ways to decrease neck pain.
