Groton Chiropractic Care of Neck Pain: Exercise and Spinal Manipulation
Neck pain is a familiar condition drawing patients into our Groton chiropractic clinic! Shoreline Medical Services/ Hutter Chiropractic Office sees that chronic neck pain is a prevalent issue nowadays. Whether the neck pain is non-specific or chronic, Shoreline Medical Services/ Hutter Chiropractic Office is ready to help find some relief from the neck pain with a Groton chiropractic treatment plan involving spinal manipulation and exercise.
EXERCISE OR MANUAL THERAPY…OR BOTH?
Neck pain treatment options are plentiful. One popular method is manual therapy. (Shoreline Medical Services/ Hutter Chiropractic Office uses gentle Cox® Technic spinal manipulation.) Another approach is exercise. A third is combining both. A new study compared manual therapy, exercise or placebo. Manual therapy alone enhanced perceived neck pain sooner than exercise. Therapeutic exercise decreased disability earlier than manual therapy. (1) An additional study compared manual therapy plus exercise to exercise alone over 4 weeks. Manual therapy plus exercise improved short- and medium-term neck pain more effectively than exercise by itself. (2) Shoreline Medical Services/ Hutter Chiropractic Office has observed that patient participation enhances clinical outcomes, too. Merging the most valuable therapies for neck pain relief is the way to go.
COX® TECHNIC AND EXERCISE FOR NECK PAIN RELIEF
Shoreline Medical Services/ Hutter Chiropractic Office goes with the research. Research made evident a safe, gentle type of manual manipulation, Cox® Technic, decreased intradiscal pressures in the cervical spine. (3) In the clinical comparison study of Cox® flexion distraction only to exercise alone for neck pain to the combination of the two that using both was favorable. (4) Cox® Technic flexion distraction for neck pain relief eased pain in a mean of 13.2 visits in a report on cervical spine radiculopathy patients. (5) Shoreline Medical Services/ Hutter Chiropractic Office finds that Groton neck pain patients are anxious to help themselves by doing recommended neck exercises in addition to making their chiropractic treatment visits.
