  • Chiropractic Care: An Effective Solution for Neck Pain Relief

    Chiropractic Care: An Effective Solution for Neck Pain Relief Based on 21 research articles here are some of the recommendations: For Migraine: - Spinal Manipulation is recommended for patients with episodic or chronic migraine with or without aura(Visual symptoms) - Weekly massage is recommended to reduce episodic migraine. - There is insufficient data to say yes or no to exercise alone for the treatment of migraines. For Tension-Type Headaches. - For patients with over 6 months of symptoms, Chiropractic adjustments to the spine are effective. - The treatment cycle is usually 2 times a week for 6 weeks for a reduction of symptoms. Cervicogenic Headache - Based on a treatment regime of 2 times a week for 3 weeks, chiropractic adjustments are effective. - Deep flexor muscles in the neck also need to be exercised, based on doing the exercise twice daily for 6 weeks.

  • Back Pain- What's the effect of Chiropractic added to Exercise on Pain and Quality of life?

    Back Pain- What's the effect of Chiropractic added to Exercise on Pain and Quality of life? Spinal Pain is the LEADING cause of disability in individuals worldwide Risk Factors for back pain are - repetitive tasks - prolonged static posture - spinal pathologies - psychological stresses This can lead to changes in the spine and muscles of the back. Manual therapy, Chiropractic, works on stimulating the sympathetic nervous system,, which can increase skin conductance, respiratory rate, and heart rate. Chiropractic also produces hypoalgesia by affecting the PAIN processing centers and increasing the pressure pain threshold. So what did the researchers find when Chiropractic was added to Exercise to help treat back pain When looking at the treatment from the first treatment to the 8th session. Results showed a SIGNIFICANT improvement in the patients who had spinal adjustments versus the group that just had exercised. The results showed that spinal manipulation reduces PAIN and improves FUNCTION. Both physical and mental components of the survey done by the patients showed improvement However what I found interesting is that the quality of life improved immediately in the Chiropractic group, and after 12 weeks, BUT, stopped after cessation of care. In the exercise group, when exercise is given, shows long-term improvement. This can explain why, if this has happened to you, you go get treatment, and when you feel like you are out of pain and stop care, it can be frustrating that the pain comes back. I always talk about lifestyle and habits. Every Sunday on our social media stories, we post a habit reminder to help you make better lifestyle choices so you limit the chances of the pain coming back As a treat, here's a stretch that you might find helpful, For more stretches, check out our online chiropractic pain management program STAND CORRECTED today!

  • Why do we get a popping sound with a chiropractic adjustment ?

    Why do we get a popping sound with a chiropractic adjustment ? Now we all now i love a food metaphor/analogy, so you have probably heard me say many a time that the popping sound is like popcorn popping , but this time its in the back rather than in the cinema - excuse me as my mind now wonders about buttery cinema popcorn Now back to the research When we thrust as chiropractors, one sided cavitation sounds were detected in over 90% of adjustments and the rest were bilateral sounds The number of audible cavitations per adjustment was around 4 and the mean duration of an adjustment was 60.77ms So dont freak out if you hear lots of sounds on your next session, its normal and EXPECTED !

  • Low Back Pain-Medical vs Chiropractic- Whats More Affordable?

    Low Back Pain- Medical vs. Chiropractic- What's More Affordable? With 80% of the population likely to have low back pain at some point in their life, it's best to know what type of care is needed, and with inflation the way it is, what going to be more cost-effective? The research looked into nearly 30 000 cases from 2015 and released a study in June 2023. Chiropractic care and physical therapy provide nonpharmacological and nonsurgical, guideline-based treatment options People who chose movement-based care like Chiropractic have decreased health care utilisation in the short term and the long term. This is in comparison to those who chose to go to the emergency department and GP's at the hospital for low back pain.

  • Feeling stuck? Fascia release can help you to get moving again

    Feeling stuck? Fascia release can help you to get moving again Research coming out in July 2023 looked into people with fixations in the body and whether the fascia release technique may be of benefit But first.. what is the fascia? Fascia is the connective tissue that is found BELOW the skin. The fascia attaches, stabilise and strengthens the muscles and helps to enclose different organs Regarding pain, the fascia has nerves that are almost as SENSITIVE as the skin. The research found that when the fascia is released with manual therapy: - increase in range of motion - better pain control - improved balance control Next time you're in the office, speak to the team about your limitations and see how we can help you move better and improve your function with fascia release.

  • Cant do head checks? Neck Pain? Chiropractic can help

    Cant do head checks? Neck Pain? Chiropractic can help Research released in July 2023 looked into the role of the scapular and how it can affect motion and neck pain What is the scapular? The scapular is an important bone in your shoulder-upper back that plays an important role in protecting the shoulder joint Many muscles stabilise the scapular, including- Serratus anterior - medial border of the scapula and the inferior angle of the scapula can be painful if the muscle is tight, press and pull activities are usually limited. Upper-body martial arts are also difficult with dysfunctional serratus anterior Rhomboid Major - unable to retract the shoulder - Rowing, pulling, throwing, and push-ups, are usually difficult when the rhomboid is tight/weak. Rhomboid Minor Levator Scapulae - Dysfunction can lead to problems with swimming, throwing, and tennis. Trapezius - Tightness and dysfunction can lead to a reduction in head movements and neck movement Now back to the research, with my other blog stating nearly half of neck pain patients have scapular distortions, it is no surprise that the researchers founds a POSITIVE result when patients had there scapular repositioned. They found there was - improved motion - less neck pain - less upper back and shoulder pain Exercises that can help the shoulder are: - Scapular pinches - Robbery pinches dynamic hugs - cheerleader exercise - seated rows - high rows - lat pull downs If you want more information about how we can help .
