RELIEF FOR NECK PAIN AND HEADACHE IN OLDER FOLKS
Best practice recommendations based on best available
scientific evidence for Baton Rouge chiropractic patients with
uncomplicated neck pain as well as those with neck pain with headache or radicular arm pain state that chiropractic
manipulation and multimodal care are recommended. (1) A new
study of 288 chiropractors revealed that nearly
a third of their chiropractic patients are senior adults over the
age of 65. Of these adults, 45.5% had
neck pain. 31.3% had consequent
headache. Baton Rouge neck pain and headache
are worries for Baton Rouge seniors!
Fortunately, chiropractic care for these older adults living with neck pain assimilates
easily with care by other
healthcare providers. (2) The safe, gentle Cox® Technic
System of Spinal Pain Management has demonstrated beneficial relief
of neck and arm pain via 15 treatments in 10 weeks
using Cox®
Technic and adjunctive modalities. (3) Spine & Sports Rehab Center offers this
treatment protocol daily for neck and arm pain relief!

Michael Johnson as he presented a patient whose neck pain and accompanying headache

Baton Rouge CHIROPRACTIC TIP OF THE MONTH:
Consider Vitamin D for Headache and Neck Pain
Vitamin D deficiency is a worldwide issue
estimated to affect 30% to 50% of the population.
(4) Researchers report that vitamin D deficiency may well cause
or exacerbate neck pain, back pain, and muscle spasm.
They state that fixing vitamin D deficiency is important
in treating these conditions since it is not too
costly and delivers big results in terms
of quality of care and cost. (5) Another review of studies done about
vitamin D and headache revealed that there is a link
between vitamin D levels and headaches (the strongest link was between vitamin D levels and migraine). Researchers suggest
that headache sufferers, especially those with migraines,
may lessen the incidence of headache by increasing vitamin D. (6) Simple! Test your vitamin D
level, and up it as necessary!
