MID-SPINE PAIN ISSUES

Mid-back pain issues may come from poor posture as the muscles and ligaments have a difficult time attempting to maintain your balance as well as stress, stenosis, rare disc herniation, trauma, whiplash, lengthy computer work, backpack carrying, etc. A variety of different issues may trigger mid-spine pain. A thorough examination must be performed to exclude any more worrisome issues, so when red flags are excluded, gentle Sitka chiropractic distraction manipulation may be beneficially used. Arctic Chiropractic, Sitka has the experience and the time to examine your spine and diagnose the condition and establish a relieving treatment plan. 

MID-BACK PAIN RELIEF

Chiropractic spinal mobilization and manipulation treatment for mid back pain relief has been studied. In one study, the responses of patients who experienced chronic thoracic spine pain from the T6 to T8 area for more than 3 months were studied for their response to spinal manipulation. Though not significant, a reduction in pain intensity, spinal stiffness, tenderness, and disability were observed. (1) Pain sufferers appreciate any relief!  Another study reported how spinal manipulation and mobilization treatment generated various muscle responses and instantaneous effects on the pain intensity of chronic thoracic middle back pain patients. Spinal manipulation generated greater muscular response and greater decrease in pain intensity. (2) A third study queried what influenced patients’ positive reaction to treatment for their non-specific thoracic spine pain? They discovered that their prospects of progress and their comfort during the spinal manipulative treatment exhibited influential roles in the patient responses. (3) Our Sitka mid-back pain patients have confidence in our chiropractic treatment and its positive outcomes of care.
