Sitka Chiropractic Care Helps Get Your Head on Straight for Neck Pain Relief

Ever heard the saying “get your head on straight”?  It has an entirely different meaning to your Sitka chiropractor at Arctic Chiropractic, Sitka. Your chiropractor actually looks at how your head is aligned on your neck. That alignment – or misalignment – may cause pain, neck pain, with or without shoulder pain.  Arctic Chiropractic, Sitka eases such pain gently and effectively for Sitka neck pain and Sitka shoulder pain patients. Sitka chiropractic care is evidence-based and has research-documented protocols for neck pain relief.

GENTLE COX® TECHNIC FOR NECK PAIN

Do you find that your head sits forward on your neck? This is a common condition in us humans. It can produce neck and shoulder pain, headache and loss of neck motion (such as turning to look behind to back up your car). Chiropractors like yours at Arctic Chiropractic, Sitka have a particular form of Sitka spinal manipulation to help this condition called Cox® Flexion Distraction Decompression spinal manipulation. The treatment is established on the anatomical changes documented in biomechanical research studies to be produced when this spinal manipulation is delivered. Namely the increased size of the opening through which the nerve passes, the reduction of the pressure inside the intervertebral disc, the heightened disc space, the recovery of normal ranges of motion of the neck, and the establishment of spinal cord stimulation to create chemical changes that reduce pain. Arctic Chiropractic, Sitka has research studies that document these pain-relieving changes for which Sitka neck pain patients choose care at Arctic Chiropractic, Sitka.  Sitka chiropractic care at Arctic Chiropractic, Sitka is built on such studies.

NECK POSITION RESTORATION

A research study issued in December 2017 demonstrated that spinal manipulation - like that delivered at Arctic Chiropractic, Sitka - accomplishes this pain relief. It is delivered to the upper thoracic spine (between the upper shoulder areas). (1) The treatment can be done on specially designed spinal manipulation tables for treating such conditions. This research paper reported that there was enhanced range of motion, improved positioning of the head on the neck, reduced neck and head pain and lessened disability. So, if you or a loved one or friend finds this description to fit your neck and head posture, seek care at Arctic Chiropractic, Sitka for this particular type of spinal manipulation. It’s gentle and effective.
