Healthy News from Your Sitka Chiropractor January 2018
Arctic Chiropractic, Sitka shares a new research study that explains that degenerated discs are already stressed because of their degenerated state. Many Sitka chiropractic patients come to Arctic Chiropractic, Sitka for disc degeneration! Curiously, this study revealed that lumbar rotational manipulation (LRM) (seated or side-lying) stressed degenerated discs further and disrupted their intradiscal pressures too. The more degenerated the disc, the more stressful LRM is. Disc displacement was observed in degenerated and even healthy discs. The healthy discs demonsrated the most displacement. (1) Thus disc degeneration is a condition for which Arctic Chiropractic, Sitka offers Cox® Technic, a special form of chiropractic spinal manipulation which is research-documented to reduce intradiscal pressures in degenerated discs. This happens in both cervical (from 96 to 1583mmHg pressure) and lumbar (to as low as -192mmHg pressure) spine discs.
