NECK PAIN THIS TIME OF YEAR?! THERE’S
HELP!
As
much as the holiday season brings joy, for some it’s a
pain in the neck. We’re|We are here to help! Chiropractic
care at Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic is calm,
effective, and proven to alleviate pain in a relatively
brief timeframe. Non-specific neck pain patients
reported that they felt that their neck disability was improved after one cervical spine manipulation treatment.
(1) Even for more difficult cases (like the
following), The Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain Management delivers
pain-relieving results. One patient with neck pain due
to narrowing of the cervical spine foramen
and radiating arm pain due to a C6-C7 cervical disc herniation reported
decreased pain and better function in 10 treatments
over a month. The patient was without pain and fully functional 8 months later. (2) Another patient with a post-surgical
C6-7 fusion who had neck pain and back pain reported decreased pain (which dropped from
8/10 to 3/10) in 12 visits in 3 months with Cox® treatment. (3) A review
of published papers on the effectiveness of manual therapy for chronic
neck pain, depicted to be a safe and less painful method to
lessen chronic neck pain, concluded that manipulative
therapy reduces the degree of chronic neck pain
and neck disability. (4) And most patients don’t have to undergo
care ‘forever’. A new study documented that chiropractors
do not recommend continued care apart from certain neck pain
patients: only 39% of
patients were proposed to continue care beyond 4 weeks
with long duration of neck pain being the most commong guide
for continued care. (5) Our Cox® Technic treatment plan for cervical spine pain is gentle and effective for Montreal
neck pain whether it is acute or chronic, radiating into
the shoulder or down the arm or centralized to the neck. This time of year, neck
pain patients walk into Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic every day! We are ready
to help each of them re-discover the JOY of
the season!
Montreal CHIROPRACTIC TIP OF THE MONTH: Exercise those Neck Muscles!
Cervical spine pain patients who want Montreal pain relief - relief that lasts - often get
it when they add exercise. A simple elastic band exercise program proved effective for non-specific neck pain reduction
and better strength of cervical spine flexor, extensor and
scapular muscles. (6) To
improve neck pain and disability effects, a study found
that isometric exercises significantly lessened neck
disability index scores after 4 weeks for cervical spondylosis patients. (7)
These are easy exercises that don’t
take long to do or to have a beneficial effect on neck pain. So
good!
