EXERCISE OR MANUAL THERAPY…OR BOTH?
Neck pain treatment options abound. One common approach is manual therapy. (Pure Chiropractic offers gentle Cox® Technic spinal manipulation.) Another tactic is exercise. A third is mixing both. A new study compared manual therapy, exercise or placebo. Manual therapy by itself improved perceived neck pain more quickly than exercise. Therapeutic exercise reduced disability faster than manual therapy. (1) A further research project assessed manual therapy plus exercise to exercise by itself over a month. Manual therapy with exercise improved short- and medium-term neck pain more effectively than exercise alone. (2) Pure Chiropractic has observed that patient participation enhances clinical outcomes, too. Using the most valuable therapies for neck pain relief is the way to go.
COX® TECHNIC AND EXERCISE FOR NECK PAIN RELIEF
Pure Chiropractic follows the research. Research revealed that a safe, gentle form of manual manipulation, Cox® Technic, decreased cervical spine intradiscal pressures. (3) In the clinical comparison study of Cox® flexion distraction alone to exercise alone for neck pain to the combination of both that using both was beneficial. (4) Cox® Technic flexion distraction for neck pain relief eased pain in a mean of 13.2 visits in a report on cervical spine radiculopathy patients.
