Sitka Low Back Pain May Be Relieved with Care of the Diaphragm
The diaphragm and back pain. What’s the connection? Curious! Researching clinicians have been reporting how manipulation affects the diaphragm and its capacity to have some bearing on and relieve non-specific back pain. Arctic Chiropractic, Sitka integrates this data into its Sitka chiropractic treatment plan to relieve Sitka non-specific low back pain.
NON-SPECIFIC LOW BACK PAIN
Chronic non-specific low back pain is back pain that has been bothersome for more than three months and doesn’t seem to have an exact cause. Usual care is education and reassurance, analgesic medications, and non-pharmacological therapies. Formal medical care is not usually needed yet imaging, opioids and surgery continued to be overused. (1) Visceral fascial limitations, restrictions of the deep fibrous connective tissues surrounding muscles, bones, nerves, arteries and veins), may cause pain in the lumbar spine. Treating patients who have non-specific low back pain with manipulation and exercise may help. (2) Arctic Chiropractic, Sitka welcomes Sitka low back pain patients with this type of condition. Such pain is often annoying for patients, and Arctic Chiropractic, Sitka can frequently help.
Sitka CHIROPRACTIC CARE OF NON-SPECIFIC LOW BACK PAIN
An interesting approach chiropractic’s collegial profession of osteopathy uses and shares cases and explanations of its success in reducing non-specific low back pain is treating the diaphragm, that dome-shaped muscular structure that separates the thoracic (chest) and abdominal sections of the body. The diaphragm starts along the lumbar vertebrae of the spine and attaches to the lower ribs. (3) It moves when we breathe. Stretching the diaphragm notably enhances cervical spine extension, right and left cervical spine flexion, flexibility of the posterior chain (the muscles of the back part of the body) and ribcage excursion at the xiphoid level (the lower tip of the chest’s sternum). (4) Via manipulation and treating the diaphragm created significant improvement in pain and disability for patients with non-specific chronic low back pain. (5) Treating the thoracic spine (mid-back) with mobilization accompanied by treatment of the low back specifically plus breathing exercises for non-specific chronic low back pain improves respiration and lessens disability for these patients. (6) Improvements like this are most welcomed by sufferers with Sitka non-specific low back pain.
