Vancouver Chiropractic Non-Surgical Relief for a Disc Herniation in the Neck

Guidelines are part of healthcare today. There are best-evidence guidelines for everything from how to manage psoriasis to kidney disease to back pain. There are best-evidence guidelines for most professions from allergy and immunology to urology. Chiropractic care is part of it all as is back pain and neck pain management. Such guidelines present a base for physicians like your Vancouver chiropractor to practice and Vancouver chiropractic patients to see that  they are being treated with the best evidenced care. Healthcare guidelines continue to evolve, and guidelines for neck pain due to cervical disc herniation point to an 8 to 12 week wait before surgical intervention which is just enough time for Vancouver chiropractic care at Vancouver Disc Centers to potentially thwart Vancouver back surgery for many.

In Europe, national guidelines for the non-surgical care of recent onset neck pain or cervical radiculopathy (arm pain) are presented:  Supervised exercise with manual therapy. Exercise and manual therapy before medicine for neck pain. Acupuncture for neck pain. Traction for cervical radiculopathy. NSAIDs (oral or topical) and tramadol after careful consideration for both neck pain and cervical radiculopathy.  The guidelines also suggest telling the patient about warning signs, prognosis and advice to keep active along with treatment.  (1) Good advice! Vancouver Disc Centers is devoted to Vancouver chiropractic patient education. Vancouver Disc Centers makes sure Vancouver patients know their spinal condition, comprehend the treatment plan to relieve the pain, and embrace their role in achieving, keeping and holding onto the relief so that they don’t have to experience arm pain or neck pain any longer than they have to or have to experience Vancouver neck surgery.

A study of Dutch neurosurgeons shows30 that 76.3% of them utilize the anterior cervical discectomy with fusion for cervical spine disc herniation surgeries. This means that they get at the cervical spine via the front of the neck, not the back. This surgical approach brings with it more risk for complications than just an anterior cervical discectomy, but the surgeons think it to be more helpful for arm pain relief. In view of the risk, fortunately, the surgeons look for a minimum of 8 to 12 weeks of radicular arm pain in a patient before they operate. (2) That offers Vancouver chiropractic care just enough time to relieve Vancouver neck pain.
