BENEFITS OF ADDING STRETCHING TO NECK PAIN TREATMENT PROCEDURES

New Roads Chiropractic 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. New Roads Chiropractic Center uses The Cox® Technic System for Spinal Pain Management to address neck pain. [[A|In one]17] study, Cox® Technic protocols delivered complete resolution of the patient’s subjective pain from a big C5-C6 disc herniation. (1) In a retrospective study of 39 cervical spine radiculopathy patients, Cox® flexion distraction delivered pain reduction in 13.2 treatments (range 6 to 37). (2) A recent paper states that for non-specific mechanical neck pain, the incorporation 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 affecting pain and disability. (3) That’s where spinal manipulation and mobilization come into play. They help relieve the pain and disability component. Adding stretching and active cervical range of motion exercise is beneficial and has its place in addressing neck pain. A well-rounded treatment plan for neck pain relief is important! Another research project further stated that neck stretching is a most effective physical therapy intervention.  Static and diagonal active stretching were helpful at reducing 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 indicating beneficial long-term effects of stretching for neck pain, disability, and function. (4) Keeping up with the neck pain relief studies, New Roads Chiropractic Center makes certain to present benefits of various ways to decrease neck pain.
