Toronto Chiropractic Care of Neck Pain: Exercise and Spinal Manipulation
Neck pain is an ordinary condition bringing patients into our Toronto chiropractic clinic! Yorkville Chiropractic and Wellness Centre sees that chronic neck pain is a prevalent issue today. Whether the neck pain is non-specific or chronic, Yorkville Chiropractic and Wellness Centre is here to help find some relief from the neck pain with a Toronto chiropractic treatment plan incorporating spinal manipulation and exercise.
EXERCISE OR MANUAL THERAPY…OR BOTH?
Neck pain treatment options flourish. One common approach is manual therapy. (Yorkville Chiropractic and Wellness Centre uses gentle Cox® Technic spinal manipulation.) Another tactic is exercise. A third is combining the two. A recent study compared manual therapy, exercise or placebo. Manual therapy by itself improved perceived neck pain more quickly than exercise. Therapeutic exercise lessened disability earlier than manual therapy. (1) Another research project compared manual therapy plus exercise to exercise alone over a month. Manual therapy with exercise improved short- and medium-term neck pain better than exercise by itself. (2) Yorkville Chiropractic and Wellness Centre has found that patient participation boosts clinical outcomes, too. Using the most valuable therapies for neck pain relief is the better option.
COX® TECHNIC AND EXERCISE FOR NECK PAIN RELIEF
Yorkville Chiropractic and Wellness Centre 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 alone for neck pain to the combination of the two that combining the two was valuable. (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) Yorkville Chiropractic and Wellness Centre finds that Toronto neck pain patients are ready to help themselves by doing recommended neck exercises as well as making their chiropractic treatment visits.
