The diaphragm and back pain. What is the relationship?
Interesting! Researching clinicians have been describing
how manipulation has an effect on the diaphragm and its
capacity to affect and improve
non-specific back pain. Capitol Spine & Rehabilitation integrates
this knowledge into its Baton Rouge chiropractic treatment
plan for relief of Baton Rouge 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 appear to have an
exact cause. Typical care is education and reassurance,
analgesic meds, and non-pharmacological therapies. Formal
medical care is not usually needed yet
imaging, opioids and surgery are often overused. (1) Visceral
fascial limitations, restrictions of the deep fibrous connective tissues surrounding
muscles, bones, nerves, arteries and veins), may cause pain in the
lumbar spine. Caring for patients with
non-specific low back pain with manipulation and exercise may be
relieving. (2) Capitol Spine & Rehabilitation sees Baton Rouge low
back pain patients with this type of condition. Such
pain is often frustrating for patients, and
Capitol Spine & Rehabilitation can often help.

CHIROPRACTIC CARE OF NON-SPECIFIC LOW BACK PAIN
An interesting 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 separates the thoracic (chest) and
abdominal sections of the body. The diaphragm originates
along the lumbar vertebrae of the spine and attaches 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 most appreciated
by sufferers with Baton Rouge non-specific low back pain.
