  • Unlocking the Healing Potential: The Impact of Spinal Adjustments on the Nervous System

    Unlocking the Healing Potential: The Impact of Spinal Adjustments on the Nervous System For years I keep telling my patients, all we do is fix spinal misalignments, and help release muscle tension which enables the body to help heal itself! When our bodies posture better, our bodies can function better and move better Chiropractors often palpate the vertebral column, check the soft tissue/muscles, check for a limited range of motion and any restrictions in movement and motion How effective are the adjustments? Well it comes down to how the body is able to heal itself Research shows that chiropractic adjustments can alter the proprioceptive after input into the central nervous system Spinal manipulation can active the paraspinal sensory neuron during an adjustment and following the adjustment, biomechanics changes occur and help with communication between sending and receiving information to and from the brain If you are struggling with spinal pain and/or dysfunction, chiropractic adjustments can help with the temporal summation of pain through its action on the nervous system and segmental biomechanics. !

  • Chiropractic Therapy for Neck Pain: Understanding the Mechanisms Behind its Efficacy.

    Chiropractic Therapy for Neck Pain: Understanding the Mechanisms Behind its Efficacy. Neck Pain is an unpleasant sensory and emotional experience that's associated with potential damage to the spine and muscles and ligaments. When the pain has lasted more than 3 months, the pain is deemed chronic and harder to treat. A reason why is when the body has got to the point where its sending off pain signals, it usually means there has been dysfunction in the muscles and/or spine prior to the pain appearing. 223 million people are affected worldwide with chronic neck Neck pain can be triggered by - Degenerative changes in the cervical spine - Congenital disease of the cervical spine - Poor sleep positions - Excessive neck motion - Brachial plexus neurtitis - Inflammation in the neck Manual therapy is considered an alternative treatment option for patients with chronic neck pain and is associated with fewer adverse effects and lower treatment costs than exercise. So how does Chiropractic help with neck pain? Manipulative therapy reduces the internal stress from the spine, helps relax the muscles around the spine. It has been shown that when you get treatment , it helps stimulate specific fibers that block pain signal transmission. The research concluded that receiving Chiropractic therapy reduced chronic neck pain intensity and neck disability. If you want more information about how we can help .
