Auburn Neck Pain Responds to Chiropractic Care
Does any neck pain sufferer want to get an xray or MRI or injection or surgery? Nope! New studies are explaining how receiving spinal manipulation – 90% of which is done by chiropractors - may help such Auburn neck pain patients avoid treatment escalation to imaging/injections/surgery. Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. is ready to help with that!
EFFECTS OF SPINAL MANIPULATION FOR NECK PAIN
Neck pain alongside Auburn back pain are leading causes of disability around the world and here in Auburn. Chiropractic is being related as a safe, helpful option for management of back and neck pain for quite a few such patients. Chiropractic is explained as care centered on spine care and treatment of spine pain conditions via spinal manipulation. Spinal manipulation is described as hindering back and neck pain in part by spine related mechanisms and potentially via peripheral mechanisms that control inflammatory pain responses. More research is called upon to figure out just what the specific and non-specific effects of spinal manipulation are. (1) We utilize spinal manipulation every day at Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C..
SPINAL MANIPULATION CONTAINS NECK PAIN TREATMENT ESCALATION
Spinal manipulation for neck pain is shown to reduce the risk of treatment escalation. 42% of neck pain patients seeking relief find that their treatment is heightened to include care like imaging, injection, emergency room visit, or surgery. Such risk was 2.38 times greater in those who received care other than spinal manipulation. Spinal manipulation decreased the risk. Over 90% of spinal manipulation is delivered by chiropractors in the US. (2) Your Auburn chiropractor delivers specialized, research-based, safe, and gentle spinal manipulation for neck pain relief.
SPECIFIC FORM OF DOCUMENTED SPINAL MANIPULATION FOR NECK PAIN RELIEF
As an example of how a specific form of spinal manipulation, Cox® Technic flexion distraction, facilitates in relieving pain, a patient case about a patient with neurofibromatosis who had headaches, temporomandibular discomfort as well as neck, scapular and lumbar pain, manually treated cervical spine flexion distraction spinal manipulation together with myofascial release, patient education about adapting her workplace ergonomics, and at-home care reduced her neck and thoracic spine pain and headache frequency. (3) Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. works one-on-one with each neck pain sufferer to give him/her the tools and knowledge to realize such relief.
PATIENT SELF-CARE AND UNDERSTANDING
Explaining to chronic nonspecific Auburn neck pain patients things they can do to help themselves and to understand their neck pain enriches their outcomes. A study comparing therapeutic exercise alone to therapeutic exercise plus pain neuroscience education to assist their understanding of their condition found that the combination helped more. The combination reduced the patients’ pain-disability scores, pain catastrophizing thoughts, and fear-avoidance beliefs. (4) That’s the goal of care for us at Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C.: less pain.
