The diaphragm and back pain. What’s the relationship?
Curious! Researchers have been reporting
how manipulation influences the diaphragm and its
ability to influence and relieve
non-specific back pain. Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc incorporates
this data into its Fort Wayne chiropractic treatment
plan for relief of Fort Wayne non-specific
low back pain.
NON-SPECIFIC LOW BACK PAIN
Chronic non-specific low back pain is back pain that
has been troublesome for more than 3
months and doesn’t appear to have a specific cause. Typical care is education and encouragement,
analgesic meds, and non-pharmacological therapies. Formal
medical care is not typically needed though
imaging, opioids and surgery continued to be overused. (1) Visceral
fascial limitations, restrictions of the deep fibrous connective tissues surrounding
muscles, bones, nerves, arteries and veins), may produce pain in the
lumbar spine. Treating patients who experience
non-specific low back pain with manipulation and exercise may be
relieving. (2) Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc sees Fort Wayne low
back pain patients with this type of condition. This type of
pain is many times annoying for patients, and
Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc can often help.

CHIROPRACTIC CARE OF NON-SPECIFIC LOW BACK PAIN
An interesting method
chiropractic’s collegial profession of osteopathy uses and shares
cases and explanations of its success in reducing non-specific
low back pain is treating the diaphragm, that dome-shaped
muscular structure that separates the thoracic (chest) and
abdominal areas of the body. The diaphragm starts
along the lumbar vertebrae of the spine and attaches to the
lower ribs. (3) It moves when we breathe. Stretching the diaphragm significantly
enhances cervical spine extension, right and left cervical spine
flexion, flexibility of the posterior chain (the muscles of the back part
of the body) and ribcage movement at the xiphoid level (the bottom
tip of the chest’s sternum). (4) Via manipulation and
treating the diaphragm produced significant improvement
in pain and disability for patients with non-specific chronic low back pain. (5)
Treating the thoracic spine (mid-back) with mobilization in
combination with treatment of the low back specifically plus
breathing exercises for non-specific chronic low back pain improves respiration
and lessens disability for these patients. (6) Such improvements are very welcomed
by sufferers with Fort Wayne non-specific low back pain.
