West Des Moines Chiropractic Care Helps Get Your Head on Straight for Neck Pain Relief

March 27, 2018

Ever been told to “get your head on straight”?  It has an entirely other meaning to your West Des Moines chiropractor at Executive Chiropractic of Iowa. Your chiropractor actually studies how your head is aligned on your neck. That alignment – or misalignment – may cause discomfort, neck pain, and/or shoulder pain.  Executive Chiropractic of Iowa eases such pain gently and effectively for West Des Moines neck pain and West Des Moines shoulder pain patients. West Des Moines chiropractic care is evidence-based and has research-documented protocols for neck pain relief.

GENTLE COX® TECHNIC FOR NECK PAIN

Do you find that your head sits 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 turning to look behind to back up your car). Chiropractors like yours at Executive Chiropractic of Iowa have a special form of West Des Moines spinal manipulation to aid this condition called Cox® Flexion Distraction Decompression spinal manipulation. The treatment is established on the anatomical changes verified in biomechanical research studies to occur when this spinal manipulation is delivered. Namely the increased size of the opening through which the nerve passes, the dropping of the pressure within 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. Executive Chiropractic of Iowa has research studies that provide evidence of these pain-relieving transformations for which West Des Moines neck pain patients come to the office.  West Des Moines chiropractic care at Executive Chiropractic of Iowa is built on such studies.

NECK POSITION RESTORATION

A research study issued in December 2017 demonstrated that spinal manipulation - like that given at Executive Chiropractic of Iowa - achieves this pain relief. It is given in the upper thoracic spine (between the upper shoulder areas). (1) The treatment can be done on specialized spinal manipulation tables designed for treating such conditions. This research paper noted that there was increased range of motion, improved positioning of the head on the neck, reduced neck and head pain and cut disability. So, if this description describes your neck and head posture, seek care at Executive Chiropractic of Iowa for this specialized type of spinal manipulation. It’s gentle and effective.
