Montreal Neck Pain Helped by Stretching
Everything has its place. Everything satisfies a need. In treating neck pain, stretching and spinal mobilization have their roles in treating the pain, disability and range of motion dysfunction. They’re needed. Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic treats many Montreal neck pain sufferers to restore their lost range of motion due to pain. Stretching is recently documented as particularly beneficial and can be a helpful adjunct to the chiropractic treatment plan.
BENEFITS OF ADDING STRETCHING TO NECK PAIN TREATMENT PROCEDURES
Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic incorporates spinal manipulation and mobilization, nutrition, exercise, and research-suggested stretching in the overall treatment plan for neck pain be it non-specific mechanical neck pain or cervical spine radiculopathy. Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic utilizes The Cox® Technic System for Spinal Pain Management to manage neck pain. [[A|In one]17] study, Cox® Technic protocols produced complete resolution of the patient’s subjective pain due to a big C5-C6 disc herniation. (1) In a retrospective study of 39 patients with cervical radiculopathy, Cox® flexion distraction delivered pain reduction in 13.2 treatments (range 6 to 37). (2) A newer paper reports that for non-specific mechanical neck pain, the incorporation of stretching to the plan was more effective at returning cervical spine motions of extension, right rotation and lateral flexion ranges of motion despite not affecting pain and disability. (3) That’s where spinal manipulation and mobilization come into play. They help relieve the pain and disability component. Including stretching and active cervical range of motion exercise is positive and has its role in the treatment of neck pain. A well-rounded treatment plan for neck pain relief is key! Another study further stated that neck stretching is a most helpful physical therapy intervention. Static and diagonal active stretching were successful at reducing neck disability and increasing cervical spine range of motion. Additionally, cervical range of motion values significantly showed increases at 4 and 6 to 8 weeks [[post-after the ]59] study indicating beneficial long-term effects of stretching for neck pain, disability, and function. (4) Keeping up with the neck pain relief studies, Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic makes certain to share benefits of various ways to reduce neck pain.
