Cervical Spondylosis Explained

Cervical Spondylosis Explained

I took time to make a research online to find chiropractor / chiropractic doctors in the Philippines and clinics catering to this service. The reason? It’s because apart from me being an online marketer and computer worker more than 8 hours a day, I am also a cervical spondylosis patient and I want the treatment. My search led to find even more as I also found some clinics that cater to this service in their call to spread pain relief cure using chiropractic medicine. As some of us know, pain management are sometimes misinterpreted and the approach seemed quite a bit unfamiliar even to a cervical spondylosis patient like me but I had no choice it seems.

Physical Therapy Experience

I’ve personally tried therapy but due to lack of money for a 3 times a week session, I wanted something else. Something faster with respect to effects and not just the maintenance type of treatment. I must admit the therapy helped me a lot and it still does with me doing the basic stretching exercises given to me on a daily basis. What lacked with my physical therapy is that someone who would gladly assist me in my stretching exercises and gentle therapy massage when one is needed. What is common in this treatment, however is the hot compress which is highly recommended based on my experience. it does help relieve pain.

Chiropractic Medicine Philosophy

While very few get to experience the costly treatment that a chiropractor usually offers. I didn’t think that it is that until I tried searching online. Found so many clinics in the Philippines as well as in Cebu City and other provinces catering to this service. This interested me the more because the more it turned out to be an elusive treatment and expensive one, searching online led me to believe from blog reviews and claims that you get your money’s worth preventing rather than curing. There are also times that you have to start off with curing pain or going through with pain management using chiropractic medicine rather than for maintenance first because you usually search for this service and for a chiropractor because you have a problem, in most cases like me, severe pain.

According to Mabuhay Chiropractics, “The Philosophy of Chiropractic encompasses the following core premises: Naturalism, Holism, Vitalism and Humanism.”. My basic understanding led me to believe in this type of treatment simply because it does not use external medicine intake. I love natural healing and I strongly believe that the body has it all the while. It’s just a matter of awakening it to for maximum and optimum effect. Apart from researching and believing that chiropractic healing can give me significant healing effect in my pain relief search for my cervical spondylosis, I also happen to believe in herbal medicine treatment. It just so happened that my case does not involve one in need or would give me very minimal or no effect due the nature of cervical spondylosis being centered in an internal physical problem.

Yoga and Neck Pain

Although many have known and accepted Yoga as a form of medicine that can actually cure some pains and illness related to it, very few would also indulge on taking the physical exercises that it offers. I have also tried it myself and I must say up to this day, I am still doing some basic yoga poses or exercises to relieve neck pain due to my cervical spondylosis. I was able to find a video that almost exactly describes the exercises I am administering to this day with my yoga mat on the floor every morning. Please watch to see how it is done.
