NECK PAIN THIS TIME OF YEAR?! Paulette Hugulet, DC, LLC IS HERE TO
HELP!
Joy! Joy! Joy! That’s this time of year…for most of us. For some it’s a
pain in the neck. We’re|We are here to help! Chiropractic
care at Paulette Hugulet, DC, LLC is calm,
effective, and proven to alleviate pain in a fairly
short timeframe. Non-specific neck pain patients
noted that they felt that their neck disability was improved after one cervical spine manipulation session.
(1) Even for cases that more difficult (like the
following), The Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain Management delivers
pain-relieving results. One patient with cervical spine foraminal narrowing
and radiating arm pain due to a C6-C7 cervical disc herniation reported
reduced pain and improved function in 10 treatments
over a month. The patient was pain
free and fully functional 8 months later. (2) Another patient with a post-surgical
C6-7 fusion experiencing neck pain and back pain stated that he
had reduced pain (which dropped from
8/10 to 3/10) in 12 visits over 3 months with Cox® treatment. (3) A review
of published papers on the effectiveness of manual therapy for chronic
neck pain, depicted to be a safe and less painful method to
alleviate chronic neck pain, proposed that manipulative
therapy lessens the degree of chronic neck pain
and neck disability. (4) And most patients do not have to undergo
care ‘forever’. A new study documented that chiropractors
don’t recommend continued care except for certain types of neck pain patients: only 39% of
patients were recommended for care beyond 4 weeks
with long duration of neck pain being the strongest indicator
for continued care. (5) Our Cox® Technic treatment plan for cervical spine pain is gentle and effective for La Grande
neck pain whether it is acute or chronic, radiating into
the shoulder or down the arm or centralized to the neck. This time of year, neck
pain patients walk in our door daily! We are ready
to help each of them find a little more JOY of
the season!
La Grande CHIROPRACTIC TIP OF THE MONTH: Exercise those Neck Muscles!
Cervical spine pain patients who want sustained La Grande
pain relief often get
it once they add exercise. A simple elastic band exercise program proved effective for non-specific neck pain reduction
and better strength of cervical spine flexor and extensor muscles as well as scapular. (6) To
improve neck pain and disability effects, a study found
that isometric exercises significantly lowered neck
disability index scores after 4 weeks for cervical spondylosis patients. (7)
These are easy exercises that don’t
take long to do or to have a positive effect on neck pain. So
good!
