With the change of modern work and life patterns, especially the use of computers for work and entertainment, the prolongation of people’s working hours and the popularity of air conditioners, the chances of fatigue, cold and damage to the posterior cervical muscles have increased, thus increasing the incidence of cervical spondylosis and rejuvenating the incidence of the population. In order to solve this contradiction, based on the idea of “treating the untreated disease” inherited from Chinese medicine, the “prevention before, during and after the disease” of cervical spondylosis is adopted, and the “prevention before the disease, prevention after the disease and prevention after the disease “The measures are as follows
1.Preventing before the disease
Different intervention measures are given according to different age characteristics.
Young people aged 25-30: The performance is mainly due to poor sitting posture and the use of air-conditioning, etc., resulting in acute reversible changes in the spine. Interventions are based on education, change of lifestyle habits and functional exercises to prevent the problem before it happens.
Middle-aged people between 30 and 50 years old: the performance has developed to a relatively stable state under the action of causative factors. Interventions should be based on the changes in the curvature of the spine that have occurred, the strain, and the symptoms that have appeared. On the basis of education, lifestyle changes and functional exercises, acupuncture, massage and physiotherapy are given to relieve symptoms, improve blood supply, enhance their own functions and save the disease in the bud.
For various interventions, from the actual situation, functional exercise is preferred.
2.Already diseased to prevent changes
That is, the content of cervical spondylosis treatment. According to the age of onset and the severity of the disease, cervical spondylosis is divided into acute phase, rehabilitation phase and remission phase, so as to clarify the stages of the treatment process of such diseases, and various treatment means are integrated and reasonably applied, emphasizing that cervical spine braking, passive adjustment and active exercise are the focus of treatment in the three stages successively, and a comprehensive treatment plan for cervical spondylosis staging is formulated.
3.Preventing recurrence after each disease
Since spinal disorders are a kind of recurrent disorders, prevention of recurrence of spinal disorders is imperative. The most important and practical measure for “prevention of recurrence after disease” is publicity and education and functional exercise.
At the same time, we provide exercise prescriptions for exercise and general knowledge about life and living in the post-examination consultation. Or go to the hospital to receive health care massage and other preventive measures.
4.Intervention means: including acupuncture, tui na, guide, S-E-T, physical therapy, traction, Chinese medicine, food therapy, health education, etc.
①Acupuncture: Adding and subtracting mainly to the Governor’s meridian and the cervical pinch points, using the flat tonic and flat diarrhea method.
②Tui Na: including meridian tui na (mainly the Ren and Du chakras, which mainly play a strong role).
③Guide: there are five-animal play, Shaolin internal gong, Yi Jin Jing, etc.
④S-E-T suspension training: the neuromuscular feedback reconstruction technique of S-E-T is applied to improve the function and stability of the cervical spine.
⑤Physiotherapy:.
⑥Chinese medicine: Because of the humid climate in Dazhou, the evil of cold and dampness is easy to cause strain and depletion of qi when it is guest in the meridians. Therefore, the medicine is used to benefit qi and transform dampness.
⑦Food therapy: Different dietary regimens are given according to different seasons.
To sum up, it reflects the concept of “treating the untreated disease” in Chinese medicine, which is to treat its unborn, unformed and untransmitted, and to prevent recovery after healing. It will have epoch-making significance for improving the cervical spine health and quality of life of the general public.
