Baton Rouge Chiropractic Care Helps Get Your Head on Straight for Neck Pain Relief

March 27, 2018

Ever heard the saying “get your head on straight”?  It has an entirely different meaning to your Baton Rouge chiropractor at Medical Spine and Sports Injury and Rehab Centers. Your chiropractor actually looks at how your head is aligned on your neck. That alignment – or misalignment – may cause pain, neck pain, with or without shoulder pain.  Medical Spine and Sports Injury and Rehab Centers lessens such pain gently and effectively for Baton Rouge neck pain and Baton Rouge shoulder pain patients. Baton Rouge chiropractic care is evidence-based and has research-documented protocols for neck pain relief.

GENTLE COX® TECHNIC FOR NECK PAIN

Do you find that your head sits forward on your neck? It is a common condition in us humans. It can cause neck and shoulder pain, headache and loss of neck motion (such as turning to look behind to back up your car). Chiropractors like yours at Medical Spine and Sports Injury and Rehab Centers have a specific form of Baton Rouge spinal manipulation to help this condition called Cox® Flexion Distraction Decompression spinal manipulation. The treatment is based on the anatomical changes documented in biomechanical research studies to be produced when this spinal manipulation is given. Specifically the increased size of the opening through which the nerve passes, the reduction of the pressure within the intervertebral disc, the heightened disc space, the recovery of normal ranges of motion of the neck, and the establishment of spinal cord stimulation to create chemical changes that lessen pain. Medical Spine and Sports Injury and Rehab Centers has research studies that provide evidence of these pain-relieving changes for which Baton Rouge neck pain patients choose care at Medical Spine and Sports Injury and Rehab Centers.  Baton Rouge chiropractic care at Medical Spine and Sports Injury and Rehab Centers is built on such studies.

NECK POSITION RESTORATION

A research study published in December 2017 showed that spinal manipulation - like that used at Medical Spine and Sports Injury and Rehab Centers - achieves this pain relief. It is delivered to the upper thoracic spine (between the upper shoulder areas). (1) The treatment can be done on specially designed spinal manipulation tables for treating such conditions. This research paper showed that there was enhanced range of motion, enhanced positioning of the head on the neck, decreased neck and head pain and lessened disability. So, if this description describes your neck and head posture, seek care at Medical Spine and Sports Injury and Rehab Centers for this particular type of spinal manipulation. It is gentle and effective.
