Vancouver Low Back Pain May Be Relieved with Care of the Diaphragm
The diaphragm and back pain. What’s the link? Curious! Researching clinicians have been reporting how manipulation influences the diaphragm and its ability to influence and relieve non-specific back pain. Vancouver Disc Centers incorporates this data into its Vancouver chiropractic treatment plan to reduce Vancouver non-specific low back pain.
NON-SPECIFIC LOW BACK PAIN
Chronic non-specific low back pain is back pain that’s been troublesome for more than three months and does not seem to have an exact cause. Usual care is education and encouragement, analgesic meds, and non-pharmacological therapies. Formal medical care is not usually required however imaging, opioids and surgery continued to be overused. (1) Visceral fascial limitations, restrictions of the deep fibrous connective tissues surrounding muscles, bones, nerves, arteries and veins), may produce pain in the lumbar spine. Treating patients with non-specific low back pain with manipulation and exercise may be relieving. (2) Vancouver Disc Centers sees Vancouver low back pain patients with this type of condition. Such pain is many times frustrating for patients, and Vancouver Disc Centers can frequently help.
Vancouver CHIROPRACTIC CARE OF NON-SPECIFIC LOW BACK PAIN
An interesting approach chiropractic’s collegial profession of osteopathy uses and writes cases and explanations of its success in relieving non-specific low back pain is treating the diaphragm, that dome-shaped muscular structure that divides the thoracic (chest) and abdominal areas of the body. The diaphragm originates along the lumbar vertebrae of the spine and connects to the lower ribs. (3) It moves when we breathe. Stretching the diaphragm significantly enhances cervical spine extension, right and left cervical spine flexion, flexibility of the posterior chain (the muscles of the back part of the body) and ribcage excursion at the xiphoid level (the bottom tip of the chest’s sternum). (4) Using manipulation and treating the diaphragm produced significant reduction in pain and disability for patients with non-specific chronic low back pain. (5) Treating the thoracic spine (mid-back) with mobilization in combination with treatment of the low back specifically and breathing exercises for non-specific chronic low back pain improves respiration and reduces disability for these patients. (6) Improvements like this are most appreciated by sufferers with Vancouver non-specific low back pain.
