New York City Neck Pain Helped by Stretching
Everything has its place. Everything fills a need. In managing neck pain, stretching and spinal mobilization have their roles in managing the relief of the pain, disability and range of motion dysfunction. They are needed. Rosenberg Wellness Center takes care of many New York City neck pain sufferers to restore their lost range of motion due to pain. Stretching is recently found to be particularly beneficial and can be a helpful adjunct to the chiropractic treatment plan.
BENEFITS OF ADDING STRETCHING TO NECK PAIN TREATMENT PROCEDURES
Rosenberg Wellness Center incorporates spinal manipulation and mobilization, nutrition, exercise, and research-suggested stretching in the overall treatment plan for neck pain be it non-specific mechanical neck pain or cervical spine radiculopathy. Rosenberg Wellness Center utilizes The Cox® Technic System for Spinal Pain Management to ease neck pain. [[A|In one]17] study, Cox® Technic protocols delivered total resolution of the patient’s subjective pain due to a big C5-C6 disc herniation. (1) In a retrospective study of 39 patients with cervical radiculopathy, Cox® flexion distraction reduced pain in 13.2 treatments (ranging from 6 to 37). (2) A newer paper states that for non-specific mechanical neck pain, the addition of stretching to the plan was more effective at enhancing cervical spine motions of extension, right rotation and lateral flexion ranges of motion despite not touching pain and disability. (3) That’s where spinal manipulation and mobilization come into play. They help relieve the pain and disability part. Adding stretching and active cervical range of motion exercise is beneficial and has its role in treating neck pain. A well-rounded treatment plan for neck pain relief is key! Another research project further described that neck stretching is one of the most successful physical therapy interventions. Static and diagonal active stretching were effective at decreasing neck disability and improving cervical spine range of motion. Additionally, cervical range of motion values significantly showed increases at 4 and 6 to 8 weeks [[post-after the ]59] study demonstrating positive long-term effects of stretching for neck pain, disability, and function. (4) Keeping abreast of the neck pain relief studies, Rosenberg Wellness Center makes certain to share benefits of various ways to reduce neck pain.
