Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic Cares for Spinal Discs with Nutrition and Knowledge

What do you know about the nutrition of the discs in your spine? Your Montreal chiropractor knows a lot about them! Not less than daily is it that your Montreal chiropractor is not caring for spinal discs. The discs in the spine have a high metabolism that needs oxygen, glucose, chondroitin sulfate and minerals in order for it to evade degenerative change. Let us consider how Montreal chiropractic guided nutrition can stabilize and improve the health of the human disc. Its nutritional balance is delicate and quite responsive to nutrition and Montreal chiropractic treatment.

HOW DISC DEGENERATION PLAYS A ROLE

The depletion of chondroitin sulfate  within the intervertebral disc during Montreal degenerative disc disease creates a reduction in tissue hydration, a loss of fluid movement, cell death (aka apoptosis), a loss of nerve growth inhibition and ultimately, the loss of disc function. Aging sees a significant decrease in chondroitin sulfate (known as glycosaminoglycan) in the disc structure. This degeneration takes place throughout the entire disc. These changes offer an appreciation of the potential influence of chondroitin sulfate on the disc biology and the expansion of therapeutic approaches for disc regeneration and repair. (1) Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic takes note of this to help Montreal chiropractic disc degeneration patients.

ANTI-INFLAMMATORY

Not only is chondroitin sulfate vital for the health of your Montreal disc and its ability to fight degeneration, but chondroitin sulfate is a slow-acting anti-inflammatory drug for doctoring osteoarthritis and low back pain. Montreal inflammation plays a role in disc health status. Chondroitin sulfate does not have the adverse side effects of non–steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs that can damage organs such as the liver, heart and kidneys. (2) A source of chondroitin sulfate is from human umbilical cord which is shown to reestablish the degenerative disc cells when disc cells are put in this umbilical fluid known as Wharton’s Jelly. Captivatingly this disc cell restorative fluid has chondroitin sulfate which is the chemical making up the intervertebral disc. (3) Also of curiosity is a study showing positive outcomes using vitamins B12, 1, and 6 in treating arm and leg pain due to intervertebral disc degeneration and herniation. (4) Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic makes available a high-quality disc nutritional supplement that explicitly has chondroitin sulfate and a daily multivitamin, amino acid, enzyme, and herb formula containing the B vitamins to reduce inflammation. Montreal chiropractic patients find this a beneficial adjunct to their Montreal chiropractic care.

SPINAL MANIPULATION PLUS NUTRITION

The benefit of Montreal chiropractic nutrition is further revealed when combined with Montreal chiropractic spinal manipulation. The physiological effects of spinal manipulation showed that it influenced disc physiology mainly through water flow via water diffusion and molecular transport into the disc, which are important for the health of the disc. (5) Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic comprehends the combined importance of supplying the nutrients of a good disc supplement and daily multivitamin with Montreal spinal manipulation to affect dispersement of water and molecular chemicals into the disc. Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic is well experienced with spinal manipulation to do this!

This study puts in perspective the role of Cox Technic procedures in the treatment and prevention of Montreal disc degeneration and its subsequent disc herniation. The effects of Montreal chiropractic on intervertebral disk matrix and metabolic enzymes in rats with cervical disc degeneration and arthritis revealed that chiropractic may enhance the degeneration in rats with cervical disc degeneration and arthritis by regulating the intervertebral disc matrix system and relevant metabolic enzymes.
