Everything has its place. Everything satisfies
a need. 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.
