Paramus Chiropractic Care of Neck Pain: Exercise and Spinal Manipulation

Neck pain is a familiar condition bringing patients into our Paramus chiropractic clinic! Paramus Medical & Sports Rehabilitation Center sees that chronic neck pain is a prevalent issue nowadays. Whether the neck pain is non-specific or chronic, Paramus Medical & Sports Rehabilitation Center is ready to help find some relief from the neck pain with a Paramus chiropractic treatment plan incorporating spinal manipulation and exercise.

EXERCISE OR MANUAL THERAPY…OR BOTH?

Neck pain treatment options abound. One common method is manual therapy. (Paramus Medical & Sports Rehabilitation Center uses gentle Cox® Technic spinal manipulation.) Another approach is exercise. A third is combining both. A new study compared manual therapy, exercise or placebo. Manual therapy by itself improved perceived neck pain more quickly than exercise. Therapeutic exercise reduced disability sooner than manual therapy. (1) A further study assessed manual therapy plus exercise to exercise alone over 4 weeks. Manual therapy plus exercise improved short- and medium-term neck pain better than exercise alone. (2) Paramus Medical & Sports Rehabilitation Center has found that patient participation improves clinical outcomes, too. Merging the most effective therapies for neck pain relief is the way to go.

COX® TECHNIC AND EXERCISE FOR NECK PAIN RELIEF

Paramus Medical & Sports Rehabilitation Center goes with the research. Research made evident a safe, gentle type of manual manipulation, Cox® Technic, dropped cervical spine intradiscal pressures. (3) In the clinical comparison study of Cox® flexion distraction only to exercise alone for neck pain to the combination of both that using both was advantageous. (4) Cox® Technic flexion distraction for neck pain relief relieved pain in a mean of 13.2 visits in a report on cervical spine radiculopathy patients. (5) Paramus Medical & Sports Rehabilitation Center realizes that Paramus neck pain patients are ready to help themselves by doing recommended neck exercises as well as making their chiropractic treatment visits.
