Spinal manipulation is a commonly used treatment for neck, back, shoulder, and pelvic pain. Significant research has shown that patients experience a considerable decrease in the amplitude of nerve conduction responses after just one session of spinal manipulation. This means that pain decreases after the very first treatment!
Evidence indicates that spinal manipulation increases spinal cord reflex, sensory processing, and motor excitability, as well as ameliorating and providing lasting relief for back, neck, shoulder, and joint pain.
Moreover, spinal manipulation of dysfunctional joints may modify transmission of neuronal circuitries not only at the spinal level, but also at the cortical level and possibly in even deeper brain structures like the basal ganglia (which is associated with a variety of functions, such as motor control, cognition, emotions, and learning).
Can a common analgesic do all of that? Certainly not. With this treatment, you not only get the relief you desire, but also get additional benefits. You will feel better, both physically and mentally, and will at last be able to enjoy your day without having to worry about joint pain limiting your activities.
