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 other meaning to your Sitka chiropractor at Arctic Chiropractic, Sitka. Your chiropractor actually studies how your head is aligned on your neck. That alignment – or misalignment – may cause discomfort, neck pain, with or without shoulder pain.  Arctic Chiropractic, Sitka relieves 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

Does your head sit forward on your neck? It is a common condition in us humans. It can trigger 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 occur when this spinal manipulation is given. Specifically the increase in the size of the opening through which the nerve passes, the reduction of the pressure within the intervertebral disc, the increased disc space height, the regaining normal ranges of motion of the neck, and the establishment of spinal cord stimulation to produce chemical changes that lessen pain. Arctic Chiropractic, Sitka has research studies that document these pain-relieving changes for which Sitka neck pain patients come to the office.  Sitka chiropractic care at Arctic Chiropractic, Sitka is based on such studies.

NECK POSITION RESTORATION

A research study published in December 2017 demonstrated that spinal manipulation - like that delivered at Arctic Chiropractic, Sitka - achieves this pain relief. It is delivered to the upper thoracic spine (between the upper shoulder areas). (1) The treatment can be done on specialized spinal manipulation tables designed 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 this description describes your neck and head posture, seek care at Arctic Chiropractic, Sitka for this particular type of spinal manipulation. It’s gentle and effective.
