BENEFITS OF ADDING STRETCHING TO NECK PAIN TREATMENT PROCEDURES
Gormish Chiropractic & Rehabilitation 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. Gormish Chiropractic & Rehabilitation uses The Cox® Technic System for Spinal Pain Management to manage neck pain. [[A|In one]17] study, Cox® Technic protocols delivered complete resolution of the patient’s subjective pain due to a large 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 incorporation of stretching to the plan was more effective at enhancing cervical spine motions of extension, right rotation and lateral flexion ranges of motion without touching pain and disability. (3) That’s where spinal manipulation and mobilization come into play. They help ease the pain and disability component. Including stretching and active cervical range of motion exercise is beneficial and has its place in the treatment of 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 increasing cervical spine range of motion. Further, cervical range of motion values significantly rose at 4 and 6 to 8 weeks [[post-after the ]59] study indicating positive long-term effects of stretching for neck pain, disability, and function. (4) Keeping abreast of the neck pain relief studies, Gormish Chiropractic & Rehabilitation makes certain to present benefits of a variety of ways to reduce neck pain.
