San Jose Chiropractic Care of Neck Pain: Exercise and Spinal Manipulation

Neck pain is an ordinary condition drawing patients to our San Jose chiropractic clinic! Chiropractic Solutions sees that chronic neck pain is a frequent problem today. Whether the neck pain is non-specific or chronic, Chiropractic Solutions is prepared to help find some relief from the neck pain with a San Jose chiropractic treatment plan incorporating spinal manipulation and exercise.

EXERCISE OR MANUAL THERAPY…OR BOTH?

Neck pain treatment options abound. One popular method is manual therapy. (Chiropractic Solutions offers gentle Cox® Technic spinal manipulation.) Another tactic is exercise. A third is mixing both. A recent study compared manual therapy, exercise or placebo. Manual therapy by itself improved perceived neck pain more quickly than exercise. Therapeutic exercise decreased disability earlier than manual therapy. (1) A further research project compared manual therapy plus exercise to exercise by itself over 4 weeks. Manual therapy plus exercise improved short- and medium-term neck pain better than exercise by itself. (2) Chiropractic Solutions has found that patient participation improves clinical outcomes, too. Combining the most valuable therapies for neck pain relief is the way to go.

COX® TECHNIC AND EXERCISE FOR NECK PAIN RELIEF

Chiropractic Solutions goes with the research. Research made evident a safe, gentle type of manual manipulation, Cox® Technic, decreased intradiscal pressures in the cervical spine. (3) In the clinical comparison study of Cox® flexion distraction alone to exercise alone for neck pain to the combination of both that combining the two was beneficial. (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) Chiropractic Solutions finds that San Jose neck pain patients are anxious to help themselves by doing recommended neck exercises in addition to making their chiropractic treatment visits.
