West Des Moines back pain and disc degeneration find help at Executive Chiropractic of Iowa with spinal disc pressure reducing West Des Moines spinal manipulation.  

Gentle, Effective, Pain-Relieving Treatment of Degenerated Discs

Executive Chiropractic of Iowa shares a new research study that explains that degenerated discs are already stressed because of their degenerated state. Many West Des Moines chiropractic patients come to Executive Chiropractic of Iowa for disc degeneration! Curiously, this study exhibited that lumbar rotational manipulation (LRM) (seated or side-lying) strained degenerated discs further and affected their intradiscal pressures too. The more degenerated the disc, the more stressful LRM is. Disc displacement was seen in degenerated and even healthy discs. The healthy discs demonsrated the most displacement. (1) Thus disc degeneration is a condition for which our chiropractic practice offers Cox® Technic, chiropractic flexion distraction spinal manipulation which is research-documented to decrease intradiscal pressures in degenerated discs. This happens in both cervical (from 96 to 1583mmHg pressure) and lumbar (to as low as -192mmHg pressure) spine discs.
