MID-BACK PAIN RELIEF
Chiropractic spinal mobilization and manipulation care for mid back pain relief has been researched. In a study, the responses of patients who had chronic thoracic spine pain from the T6 to T8 area for more than 3 months were studied for their response to spinal manipulation. Though not significant, a reduction in pain intensity, spinal stiffness, tenderness, and disability were noted. (1) Pain sufferers are happy with any relief! A different study described how spinal manipulation and mobilization treatment created different muscle responses and immediate effects on the pain intensity of chronic thoracic middle back pain patients. Spinal manipulation generated greater muscular response and greater decrease in pain intensity. (2) A third study queried what influenced patients’ positive reaction to treatment for their non-specific thoracic spine pain? They discovered that their expectations of progress and their comfort throughout the spinal manipulative treatment exhibited influential roles in the patient responses. (3) Our Sitka mid-back pain patients have confidence in our chiropractic treatment and its positive outcomes of care.
