Tonawanda Chiropractic Treatment of Neck Pain Involves Oscillatory Manipulation
The cervical spine is an amazing moving structure. It not only supports the weight of the skull, it also houses many important structures like the spinal cord and its nerves in a very small space. A slight irritation of a nerve may cause a slight bit of pain or a great amount of pain depending on the area of the cervical spine canal created by the cervical spine vertebral bodies. (Other reatures also may come into play when there is neck pain, but for this article, we’re looking at the spinal structure.) When there is pain-producing irritation, Tonawanda neck pain along with neck pain or not evolves. Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation, too, rises to the occasion to reduce that pain with gentle, oscillatory mobilization in the form of Cox® Technic.
BENEFITS OF MOBILIZATION AND MANIPULATION
Both manipulation and mobilization are modes of treatment for neck pain relief. A Cochrane review of published randomized control trials that documented just how manipulation and mobilization impacted patients with neck pain of all types (acute, subacute and chronic) found that they both enhanced these patients’ clinical outcomes like pain, function, disability, and quality of life. (1) Further, neural mobilization with manual cervical traction for cervical spine radiculopathy in which a space-occupying lesion bothers nerve roots was reported to reduce pain and improve neck disability, range of motion and even deep flexor endurance. (2) Such clinical outcomes are the goals of Tonawanda chiropractic care at Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation. Your Tonawanda chiropractor keeps up-to-date on the optimal means to produce these outcomes.
BENEFITS OF OSCILLATORY MOBILIZATION
Researchers recognize a couple types of mobilization and manipulation: static or sustained and oscillatory or motion-driven. Oscillatory or motion-combined mobilization and sustained stretch mobilization were effective in this study for decreasing pain, increasing range of motion, and decreasing disability related to cervical spine radiculopathy. However, oscillatory mobilization is reported to be superior for enhancing function and range of motion. (3) Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation strives to deliver all the benefit possible to our cervical radiculopathy neck-related arm pain patients and so utilizes Cox® Technic flexion distraction that involves oscillatory motion by combining long-y distraction with range of motion normal to the cervical spine: flexion, extension, lateral bending, rotation, and a combination of them all! Tonawanda neck pain and arm pain patients appreciate the positive clinical outcome!
BENEFITS OF COX® TECHNIC FOR NECK PAIN AND ARM PAIN RELIEF
At Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation, Cox® Technic is implemented. it is the gentle, safe treatment protocol for neck pain and arm pain relief. In a report on 39 patients with cervical arm pain radiculopathy cared for with Cox® Technic flexion distraction, there was a 41% reduction in pain scores in a mean of 13.8 visits. (4) A 51 year old woman suffering with 2 years of left arm pain stated relief after the first visit. She had 24 visits over 6 months and was symptom-free at 1 year follow-up. (5) Cox® Technic blends the best of both oscillatory manipulation and mobilization for Tonawanda neck pain and Tonawanda arm pain relief.
