The diaphragm and back pain. What is the connection?
Interesting! Researching clinicians have been reporting
how manipulation affects the diaphragm and its
ability to influence and improve
non-specific back pain. Gormish Chiropractic & Rehabilitation includes
this knowledge into its Carrolltown chiropractic treatment
plan to reduce Carrolltown non-specific
low back pain.
NON-SPECIFIC LOW BACK PAIN
Chronic non-specific low back pain is back pain that
has been annoying for more than 3
months and doesn’t seem to have a specific cause. Typical care is education and reassurance,
analgesic meds, and non-pharmacological therapies. Formal
medical care is not typically needed though
imaging, opioids and surgery are often overused. (1) Visceral
fascial limitations, restrictions of the deep fibrous connective tissues enclosing
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) Gormish Chiropractic & Rehabilitation welcomes Carrolltown low
back pain patients like this. Such
pain is many times frustrating for patients, and
Gormish Chiropractic & Rehabilitation can frequently help.

CHIROPRACTIC CARE OF NON-SPECIFIC LOW BACK PAIN
An effective approach
chiropractic’s collegial profession of osteopathy uses and publishes
cases and explanations of its success in relieving non-specific
low back pain is taking care of the diaphragm, that dome-shaped
muscular structure that divides the thoracic (chest) and
abdominal sections 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 notably
enhances cervical spine extension, right and left cervical spine
flexion, flexibility of the posterior chain (the muscles of the backside
of the body) and ribcage movement at the xiphoid level (the bottom
tip of the chest’s sternum). (4) Via manipulation and
treating the diaphragm created 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) Such improvements are very welcomed
by sufferers with Carrolltown non-specific low back pain.
