New York City Chiropractic Non-Surgical Relief for a Disc Herniation in the Neck

July 04, 2017

Guidelines are part of healthcare today. There are best-evidence guidelines for everything from how to manage arthritis to heart disease to back pain. There are best-evidence guidelines for most professions from allergy and immunology to urology. Chiropractic care is in the mix as is back pain and neck pain management. Such guidelines present a base for physicians like your New York City chiropractor to practice and New York City chiropractic patients to know that  they are being treated with the best evidenced care. Healthcare guidelines continue to evolve, and guidelines for neck pain due to cervical disc herniation indicate an 8 to 12 week wait before surgical intervention which is just enough time for New York City chiropractic care at Rosenberg Wellness Center to potentially prevent New York City back surgery for many.

In Europe, national guidelines for the non-surgical care of new onset neck pain or cervical radiculopathy (arm pain) are shared:  Supervised exercise with manual therapy. Exercise and manual therapy before medicine for neck pain. Acupuncture for neck pain. Traction for cervical radiculopathy. NSAIDs (oral or topical) and tramadol after careful consideration for both neck pain and cervical radiculopathy.  The guidelines also recommend informing the patient about warning signs, prognosis and advice to keep active along with treatment.  (1) Good advice! Rosenberg Wellness Center is committed to New York City chiropractic patient education. Rosenberg Wellness Center wants to be sure New York City patients are familiar with their spinal condition, understand the treatment plan to reduce pain, and embrace their role in getting, maintaining and holding onto the relief so that they don’t have to suffer with arm pain or neck pain any longer than they have to or need to undergo New York City neck surgery.

A study of Dutch neurosurgeons shows30 that 76.3% of them implement the anterior cervical discectomy with fusion for cervical spine disc herniation surgeries. This requires them to get at the cervical spine via the front of the neck, not the back. This surgical approach has a higher risk for complications than just an anterior cervical discectomy, but the surgeons expect it to be more effective for arm pain relief. Considering the risk, luckily, the surgeons look for a minimum of 8 to 12 weeks of radicular arm pain in a patient in advance of a neck surgery. (2) That allows New York City chiropractic care just enough time to reduce New York City neck pain.

In 8 weeks, New York City chiropractic care at Rosenberg Wellness Center with Cox Technic can amaze! In a retrospective review of 39 patients treated with Cox Technic protocols for cervical spine in patients with cervical radiculopathy (arm pain), only 13.2 treatment visits were needed to give patients arm pain relief. (3) In 10 weeks, Cox Technic delivers a good clinical outcome that keeps going! A 2 year follow up with a patient who had a C6-7 cervical disc herniation with radiculopathy arm pain revealed that subjective and objective signs or relief were steady. (4) In the conservative medical care arena, 83% patients with symptomatic cervical spine disc herniation with radiculopathy find relief in about 24 to 36 months with the most progress toward recovery happening in the first 4 to 6 months.
