Mid-back pain. Have you ever felt that? Tightness in the mid-spine? It’s not that unusual, and Richmond chiropractic treatment of the mid-back is relieving. Just ask our thoracic spine pain patients who have realized relief at Johnson Chiropractic!

MID-SPINE PAIN ISSUES

Mid-back pain issues may come from poor posture as the muscles and ligaments struggle to keep you balanced in addition to stress, stenosis, rare disc herniation, trauma, whiplash, prolonged computer work, backpack carrying, etc. So many separate issues may bring on mid-spine pain. A thorough examination must be performed to exclude any more troubling issues, so when red flags are excluded, gentle Richmond chiropractic distraction manipulation may be applied. Johnson Chiropractic has the experience and the time to examine your spine and diagnose the condition and establish a relieving treatment plan. 

MID-BACK PAIN RELIEF

Chiropractic spinal manipulation and mobilization care for mid back pain relief has been studied. In one study, the responses of patients who experienced chronic thoracic spine pain from the T6 to T8 area for more than 3 months were studied for their response to spinal manipulation. Though not significant, a reduction in pain intensity, spinal stiffness, tenderness, and disability were observed. (1) Pain sufferers appreciate any relief!  Another study reported how spinal manipulation and mobilization treatment generated assorted muscle responses and immediate effects on the pain intensity of chronic thoracic middle back pain patients. Spinal manipulation produced greater muscular response and greater decrease in pain intensity. (2) A third study asked what influenced patients’ positive reaction to treatment for their non-specific thoracic spine pain? They found that their prospects of improvement and their comfort throughout the spinal manipulative treatment exhibited influential roles in the patient responses. (3) Our Richmond mid-back pain patients have confidence in our chiropractic treatment and its positive outcomes of care.
