Largo Chiropractic Care of Neck Pain: Exercise and Spinal Manipulation
Neck pain is an everyday condition bringing patients into our Largo chiropractic clinic! Hollstrom & Associates Inc finds that chronic neck pain is a widespread problem today. Whether the neck pain is non-specific or chronic, Hollstrom & Associates Inc is here to help coordinate some relief from the neck pain with a Largo chiropractic treatment plan incorporating spinal manipulation and exercise.
EXERCISE OR MANUAL THERAPY…OR BOTH?
Neck pain treatment options are plentiful. One popular approach is manual therapy. (Hollstrom & Associates Inc uses 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 alone improved perceived neck pain more quickly than exercise. Therapeutic exercise reduced disability sooner than manual therapy. (1) Another study assessed manual therapy plus exercise to exercise alone over a month. Manual therapy with exercise improved short- and medium-term neck pain better than exercise alone. (2) Hollstrom & Associates Inc has found that patient participation boosts clinical outcomes, too. Using the most valuable therapies for neck pain relief is the way to go.
COX® TECHNIC AND EXERCISE FOR NECK PAIN RELIEF
Hollstrom & Associates Inc goes with the research. Research revealed that 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 alone to exercise only for neck pain to the combination of the two that combining the two was beneficial. (4) Cox® Technic flexion distraction for neck pain relief relieved pain in a mean of 13.2 visits in a study of cervical spine radiculopathy patients. (5) Hollstrom & Associates Inc realizes that Largo neck pain patients are ready to help themselves by doing recommended neck exercises in addition to making their chiropractic treatment visits.
