The diaphragm and back pain. What is the connection?
Curious! Researching clinicians have been reporting
how manipulation influences the diaphragm and its
ability to influence and improve
non-specific back pain. Paramus Medical & Sports Rehabilitation Center includes
this data into its Paramus chiropractic treatment
plan to relieve Paramus non-specific
low back pain.
NON-SPECIFIC LOW BACK PAIN
Chronic non-specific low back pain is back pain that’s been annoying for more than 3
months and does not seem to have a specific cause. Typical care is education and reassurance,
analgesic meds, and non-pharmacological therapies. Formal
medical care is not usually required yet
imaging, opioids and surgery are often overused. (1) Visceral
fascial limitations, restrictions of the deep fibrous connective tissues enclosing
muscles, bones, nerves, arteries and veins), may produce pain in the
lumbar spine. Caring for patients with
non-specific low back pain with manipulation and exercise may be
relieving. (2) Paramus Medical & Sports Rehabilitation Center sees Paramus low
back pain patients like this. This type of
pain is many times frustrating for patients, and
Paramus Medical & Sports Rehabilitation Center can frequently help.

CHIROPRACTIC CARE OF NON-SPECIFIC LOW BACK PAIN
An effective approach
chiropractic’s collegial profession of osteopathy utilizes and publishes
cases and explanations of its success in reducing non-specific
low back pain is taking care of the diaphragm, that dome-shaped
muscular structure that separates the thoracic (chest) and
abdominal areas of the body. The diaphragm starts
along the lumbar vertebrae of the spine and attaches to the
lower ribs. (3) It moves when we breathe. Stretching the diaphragm significantly
enhances cervical spine extension, right and left cervical spine
flexion, flexibility of the posterior chain (the muscles of the back part
of the body) and ribcage excursion at the xiphoid level (the bottom
tip of the chest’s sternum). (4) Using manipulation and
treating the diaphragm produced significant reduction
in pain and disability for patients with non-specific chronic low back pain. (5)
Treating the thoracic spine (mid-back) with mobilization accompanied by treatment of the low back specifically and
breathing exercises for non-specific chronic low back pain improves respiration
and reduces disability for these patients. (6) Improvements
like this are most appreciated
by sufferers with Paramus non-specific low back pain.
