Neck pain is a familiar
condition bringing patients to
our Malverne chiropractic clinic! Malverne Health & Wellness finds
that chronic neck pain is a widespread issue
nowadays. Whether the neck pain is non-specific or chronic, Malverne Health & Wellness
is here to help deliver some neck pain relief with a Malverne chiropractic treatment
plan incorporating spinal manipulation and exercise.
EXERCISE OR MANUAL THERAPY…OR BOTH?
Neck pain treatment options are plentiful.
One common approach is manual therapy. (Malverne Health & Wellness
offers gentle Cox® Technic spinal manipulation.) Another approach
is exercise. A third is mixing the two. A recent
study compared manual therapy, exercise or placebo. Manual therapy by itself
improved perceived neck pain sooner than exercise.
Therapeutic exercise decreased disability sooner
than manual therapy. (1) A further study assessed manual therapy plus exercise to exercise
by itself over 4 weeks. Manual therapy plus
exercise improved short- and medium-term neck pain more
effectively than exercise alone. (2) Malverne Health & Wellness has observed
that patient participation improves clinical outcomes,
too. Merging the most valuable therapies
for neck pain relief is the better option.
COX® TECHNIC AND EXERCISE FOR NECK PAIN RELIEF
Malverne Health & Wellness follows the research.
Research revealed that a safe, gentle form
of manual manipulation, Cox® Technic, decreased cervical spine
intradiscal pressures. (3) In
the clinical comparison study of Cox® flexion distraction only to
exercise only for neck pain to the combination of both
that combining the two was favorable.
(4) Cox® Technic flexion distraction for neck pain relief eased
pain in a mean of 13.2 visits in a study of cervical spine
radiculopathy patients. (5) Malverne Health & Wellness finds that
Malverne neck pain patients are anxious to help
themselves by doing recommended neck exercises as
well as making their chiropractic treatment visits.
