Can Chiropractic Relieve Neck Pain? San Jose Chiropractic Thoracic Spine Treatment Helps Ease Neck and Arm Pain.
The spine. Its five sections make up one spine, so it’s logical that treating one area might affect another. So fascinating. So newly published! Chiropractic Solutions has a thing about new research, and this new research describes how treating the thoracic spine positively influences the status of the cervical spine. Chiropractic Solutions is completely in favor of the two-for-one effect for spinal pain reduction! When issues of cervical spine myelopathy and disc herniation are concerned, San Jose neck pain patients will be, too.
CERVICAL SPINE PAIN
Cervical spine pain may include neck pain as well as radiculopathy or cervical radicular pain down the arm. Such diseases of the cervical spine may trigger other issues, too. For example, patients who have cervical spine spinal cord disease have three times more incidence of having cardiovascular disease. Rapidly progressive cervical spine myelopathy patients are likely to have a history of a cardiovascular event and show C4/5 disc hyperintensity on T2-MRI images. (1) Another intriguing report of patients with degenerative cervical myelopathy - a progressive spine disease concerning cervical spinal cord compression – found that patients evaluated the quality of their care based on satisfaction. The research findings, therefore, emphasize the importance of explaining to patients what to expect to boost satisfaction: At 12 months following surgery for neck degenerative myelopathy, the relief of pain and function issues may be improved (37%), may be the same (55%), or may decline (7%). (2) Honesty is the best policy in life and in doctor-patient relationships. Chiropractic Solutions presents its proposed treatment’s expected outcomes and the course of healing to be expected on day one. (ex: “Some days will be better than others as you heal. Healing happens when the good days start to exceed the poor ones.”) San Jose chiropractic care with its gentle chiropractic adjusting – like with Cox® Technic – improves the odds of good days and more good days!
THORACIC SPINE ADJUSTING HELPS CERVICAL SPINE PAIN
Chiropractic treatment of the thoracic spine can be quite gentle and pain-relieving not just for the thoracic spine but also the cervical spine. Thoracic spine thrust adjusting has been demonstrated to improve cervical spine pain and enhance disability. A recent article tells of improvements in pain, disability, cervical spine range of motion, and deep neck flexor endurance in patients with cervical spine radiculopathy after just one treatment. These changes were most stated by patients 48 to 72 hours after treatment. (3) Neighboring cervical and thoracic spine sections feed off of each other’s care! Wonderful! There is that beneficial two-for-one effect again.
