Manahawkin Chiropractic Care of Neck Pain: Exercise and Spinal Manipulation
Neck pain is a common condition bringing patients into our Manahawkin chiropractic clinic! Manahawkin Chiropractic Center finds that chronic neck pain is a widespread problem nowadays. Whether the neck pain is non-specific or chronic, Manahawkin Chiropractic Center is prepared to help find some relief from the neck pain with a Manahawkin chiropractic treatment plan involving spinal manipulation and exercise.
EXERCISE OR MANUAL THERAPY…OR BOTH?
Neck pain treatment options are plentiful. One popular approach is manual therapy. (Manahawkin Chiropractic Center offers gentle Cox® Technic spinal manipulation.) Another tactic is exercise. A third is mixing the two. A recent study compared manual therapy, exercise or placebo. Manual therapy by itself enhanced perceived neck pain more quickly than exercise. Therapeutic exercise lessened disability faster than manual therapy. (1) An additional research project assessed manual therapy plus exercise to exercise alone over a month. Manual therapy plus exercise increased short- and medium-term neck pain more effectively than exercise by itself. (2) Manahawkin Chiropractic Center has observed that patient participation enhances clinical outcomes, too. Using the most valuable therapies for neck pain relief is the better option.
COX® TECHNIC AND EXERCISE FOR NECK PAIN RELIEF
Manahawkin Chiropractic Center goes with the research. Research made evident a safe, gentle form of manual manipulation, Cox® Technic, decreased cervical spine intradiscal pressures. (3) In the clinical comparison study of Cox® flexion distraction alone to exercise only 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) Manahawkin Chiropractic Center realizes that Manahawkin neck pain patients are anxious to help themselves by doing suggested neck exercises as well as making their chiropractic treatment visits.
