Auburn Thoracic Spine Pain Helped by Chiropractic Care
For those of us dealing with thoracic (mid-spine) pain, chiropractic spinal manipulation therapy can be a good way to lessen symptoms and enhanced our quality of life. This type of care centers on biomechanical parameters to help enhance clinical outcomes, such as increasing range of motion and decreasing pain levels. Let's explore the ways in which this type of therapy can help Auburn thoracic spine pain sufferers find relief at Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C..
WHAT IS THORACIC PAIN?
Thoracic pain is a kind of back pain that affects the mid section of your spine, known as the thoracic spine region. This area comprises your chest wall, ribs, and lungs. The most common causes of thoracic pain involve sprain or strain of muscle, injury to a disc, spinal stenosis, compressed nerve in the spine, and/or facet joint dysfunction. Other contributing issues may include weak posture or an injury to the shoulder or arm that puts pressure on the nerves in this area. Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. can figure this out via a complete examination of your spine.
HOW CHIROPRACTORS CAN HELP WITH THORACIC PAIN
Chiropractors like yours at Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. are experienced in identifying and treating musculoskeletal issues like thoracic pain. They depend on a hands-on approach in diagnosing and treating these conditions using various techniques such as manual adjustments, electrical stimulation therapy, exercises, and other modalities to decrease inflammation and enhance range of motion in affected areas. Via regular visits with their Auburn chiropractor for spinal manipulation and mobilization and treatment plans personalized for them, patients suffering from thoracic pain can get relief without having to take medications or undergoing surgery.
HOW CHIROPRACTIC SPINAL MANIPULATION WORKS AND HELPS
Chiropractic spinal manipulation and mobilization is a type of hands-on treatment that uses precise force, pressure, and direction to relieve spinal pain. Cox® Technic is one very gentle type of treatment that is segment specific, stretches spinal tissues, and eases pain. The applied forces can be measured precisely with proper equipment. Such precision benefits those with thoracic pain. Research has shown that this type of treatment can decrease stiffness in the spine and relax muscles to help relieve pain levels. One new study of patients with chronic thoracic pain documented that spinal manipulation reduced pain intensity, disability, spinal stiffness, and tenderness. (1) Another report stated that patients who were “responders” to spinal manipulation for non-specific thoracic spine pain relief were those whose expectations of improvement and comfort during spinal manipulation were positive. (2) So be positive! Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. is here.
