Richmond Chiropractic Care Helps Get Your Head on Straight for Neck Pain Relief

Ever been told to “get your head on straight”?  It has an entirely different meaning to your Richmond chiropractor at Johnson Chiropractic. Your chiropractor actually looks at how your head is aligned on your neck. That alignment – or misalignment – may cause pain, neck pain, and/or shoulder pain.  Johnson Chiropractic lessens such pain gently and successfully for Richmond neck pain and Richmond shoulder pain patients. Richmond chiropractic care is evidence-based and has research-documented protocols for neck pain relief.

GENTLE COX® TECHNIC FOR NECK PAIN

Does your head sit forward on your neck? It’s a common condition in us humans. It can trigger neck and shoulder pain, headache and loss of neck motion (such as looking behind to back up your car). Chiropractors like yours at Johnson Chiropractic have a special form of Richmond spinal manipulation to aid this condition called Cox® Flexion Distraction Decompression spinal manipulation. The treatment is based on the anatomical changes verified in biomechanical research studies to occur when this spinal manipulation is delivered. Namely the increase in the size of the opening through which the nerve passes, the reduction of the pressure inside the intervertebral disc, the heightened disc space, the recovery of normal ranges of motion of the neck, and the establishment of spinal cord stimulation to create chemical changes that reduce pain. Johnson Chiropractic has research studies that document these pain-relieving transformations for which Richmond neck pain patients choose care at Johnson Chiropractic.  Richmond chiropractic care at Johnson Chiropractic is based on such studies.

NECK POSITION RESTORATION

A research study issued in December 2017 demonstrated that spinal manipulation - like that delivered at Johnson Chiropractic - accomplishes this pain relief. It is delivered to the upper thoracic spine (between the upper shoulder areas). (1) The treatment can be given on specialized spinal manipulation tables designed for treating such conditions. This research paper noted that there was increased range of motion, enhanced positioning of the head on the neck, reduced neck and head pain and reduced disability. So, if you or a loved one or friend finds this description to fit your neck and head posture, seek care at Johnson Chiropractic for this specialized type of spinal manipulation. It’s gentle and effective.
