The diaphragm and back pain. What’s the link?
Curious! Researchers have been describing
how manipulation influences the diaphragm and its
ability to affect and improve
non-specific back pain. Manchester Chiropractic & Sports Injuries integrates
this information into its Manchester chiropractic treatment
plan for relief of Manchester non-specific
low back pain.
NON-SPECIFIC LOW BACK PAIN
Chronic non-specific low back pain is back pain that’s been annoying 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 commonly required 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 help. (2) Manchester Chiropractic & Sports Injuries welcomes Manchester low
back pain patients like this. This type of
pain is often frustrating for patients, and
Manchester Chiropractic & Sports Injuries can often help.

CHIROPRACTIC CARE OF NON-SPECIFIC LOW BACK PAIN
An interesting approach
chiropractic’s collegial profession of osteopathy utilizes and writes
cases and explanations of its success in reducing non-specific
low back pain is treating the diaphragm, that dome-shaped
muscular structure that separates 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) By means of manipulation and
treating the diaphragm created significant improvement
in pain and disability for patients with non-specific chronic low back pain. (5)
Treating the thoracic spine (mid-back) with mobilization along with treatment of the low back specifically plus
breathing exercises for non-specific chronic low back pain improves respiration
and lessens disability for these patients. (6) Such improvements are most appreciated
by sufferers with Manchester non-specific low back pain.
