THORACIC MANIPULATION TO IMPROVE CERVICAL SPINE FUNCTION
Neck pain and other cervical spine conditions limit cervical spine motion. Thoracic spine spinal manipulation enhanced neck function for patients with chronic or recurrent neck or shoulder pain with or without arm pain who had suffered with such pain for at least 3 months. Thoracic spine manipulation efficiently increased flexion and rotation of the cervical region. (1) Another study used thoracic spine manipulation to decrease neck pain and improve cervical spine range of motion in patients with mechanical neck pain and cervicothoracic junction dysfunction. It succeeded! (2) Sometimes it only needs one treatment. In this study, one thoracic manipulation session comparably delivered pain relief at immediate-term follow-up for chronic neck pain patients as thoracic mobilization.

Cervical spine flexion distraction spinal manipulation along with myofascial release, ergonomic patient education, and active care tips decreased neck pain and headache frequency.
