Can Chiropractic Relieve Neck Pain? Montreal Chiropractic Thoracic Spine Treatment Helps Ease Neck and Arm Pain.
The spine. Its five sections make up one spine, so it makes sense that treating one section might affect another. So fascinating. So newly published! Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic enjoys new research, and this new research indicates that treating the thoracic spine positively affects the status of the cervical spine. Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic is all for the two-for-one effect for spinal pain decrease! When issues of cervical spine myelopathy and disc herniation are involved, Montreal neck pain patients will be, too.
CERVICAL SPINE PAIN
Cervical spine pain may involve neck pain as well as radiculopathy or cervical radicular pain down the arm. Cervical spine related diseases like this may trigger other issues, too. For example, patients who have cervical spine spinal cord disease have 3 times more likelihood of having cardiovascular disease. Rapidly progressive cervical spine myelopathy patients tend to have a history of a cardiovascular event and show C4/5 disc hyperintensity on T2-MRI images. (1) Another intriguing study of patients with degenerative cervical myelopathy - a progressive spine disease concerning cervical spinal cord compression – found that patient evaluation of the quality of care they received comes down to satisfaction. The research findings, therefore, emphasize the importance of telling patients what they can expect to boost satisfaction: At 12 months following surgery for neck degenerative myelopathy, the relief of pain and function issues may be improved (37%), may remain the same (55%), or may decline (7%). (2) Honesty is the best way in life and in doctor-patient relationships. Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic shares its proposed treatment’s expected outcomes and the course of healing to be expected on day one. (ex: “Some days will be nicer than others as you heal. Healing comes when the good days start to exceed the poor ones.”) Montreal chiropractic care incorporating gentle chiropractic adjusting – like with Cox® Technic – enhances the odds of good days and more good days!
THORACIC SPINE ADJUSTING HELPS CERVICAL SPINE PAIN
Chiropractic treatment of the thoracic spine can be quite gentle and pain-relieving not just for the thoracic spine but also the cervical spine. Thoracic spine thrust adjusting has been demonstrated to improve cervical spine pain and enhance disability. A recent article tells of improvements in pain, disability, cervical spine range of motion, and deep neck flexor endurance in patients with cervical spine radiculopathy after just one treatment. These changes were most reported by patients 48 to 72 hours after treatment. (3) Adjacent cervical and thoracic spine sections feed off of each other’s care! Wonderful! There is that beneficial two-for-one effect again.
