Yorkville Chiropractic and Wellness Centres October 2017 Healthy Newsletter
Toronto knee pain is a pain that Yorkville Chiropractic and Wellness Centre sees often. Pain medications and surgical options abound while a new non-surgical chiropractic treatment is revealing good results. Principles of Cox® Technic flexion distraction and decompression - a technique used in clinic daily for Toronto back pain and neck pain relief - were tailored for use with knee pain. They proved successful in lessening knee pain. Overall, knee pain patients’ mean pain scores fell from 7.7 to 1.8 on a 10 point scale 1 least pain, 10 most pain in a mean of 5.3 visits over 3 weeks. In particular, acute knee pain patients’ pain scores dropped even more from a mean of 8.1 to 1.1 in 4.8 treatments in 2.4 weeks. Chronic knee pain patients’ scores dropped from 7.5 to 2.2 in 5.4 treatments in 3.3 weeks. None of the patients had any adverse reactions. (1) It's gentle, relieving, and comfortable. Listen to a PODCAST by the author of this paper about his clinical experience with treating knee pain. This is an exciting addition to Yorkville Chiropractic and Wellness Centre’s Toronto chiropractic care! Toronto knee pain sufferers are invited to experience this gentle, relieving Toronto knee pain treatment!
Toronto CHIROPRACTIC TIP OF THE MONTH: Strengthen the Hip Abductors
All of us can benefit from stronger hip abductors, and Toronto older folks benefit even more. A recent article states that people with chronic low back pain typically have hip abductor weakness, too. (Yorkville Chiropractic and Wellness Centre agrees as these two are seen often in this Toronto chiropractic practice.) A simple series of hip abductor exercises relieved pain and improved function in a set of older chronic low back pain sufferers. (2) Easy! Yorkville Chiropractic and Wellness Centre will share some hip strengthening exercises you can do at home along with the Toronto chiropractic spinal manipulation with Cox Technic in office to achieve such relief yourself.
