Myth 1: Cervical spine pain to go to a press, reset? The right solution: not everyone is suitable for casual massage reset, older people (65 years old and above) should pay special attention. The first thing you need to do is to go to the rehabilitation department to do manual therapy. At first, the rehabilitation doctor suggested that she have a neck X-ray examination, and Auntie Zheng was still full of doubts: does TCM massage also need to see the film? Fortunately, the doctor saw that Zheng’s osteoporosis was very serious, and if the therapist did not understand that the cervical spine had more serious osteoporosis, he could help Zheng do a reset at will, or if he was too heavy, he could break the bones accidentally, which could lead to paralysis in serious cases. The traditional cervical manipulation treatment of cervical small joint dislocation, mainly: rotational lifting and pulling trigger method, pulling and stretching method, oblique trigger method, etc., there is a large action, sudden force, strength is difficult to grasp and other actions, due to the special anatomical position of the cervical spine, instant improper force, easy to cause high spinal cord injury, thrombosis of the vertebral artery, dislocation of the circumflex spine, lower articular fracture and cervical disc protrusion and other medical source of injury, so there are congenital cervical spine Defects, cervical segmental instability, bone tuberculosis, over 50 or 60 years old with osteoporosis, pay special attention. Myth 2: No time to exercise, massage health care to compensate? Correct: neck maintenance is more important to correct the posture and daily health care Miss Lee engaged in the design industry, usually very busy, need to work long hours on the computer, she often appear neck, shoulder and back pain, neck tightness. Focus on health and wellness, she feels that there is no time to do physical exercise, and no mind to do spinal health exercises. But every two weeks or so, Miss Lee will go to do massage massage, so that the neck well relaxed. Neck, shoulder, chest and back health care, the most critical to correct incorrect posture, good exercise habits, good daily health care, than a problem to go to the hospital treatment is much more reliable. He introduced that after the age of 25, the normal human spine begins to degenerate, prone to disorders and changes in the normal anatomical position of the neck, shoulder and chest back. In addition, the modern people look at the computer for a long time, long-term ambulatory work habits, leaning on the bed to play computer, reading cell phones, reading newspapers, watching TV and other bad habits, long-term formation of “postural strain injury”, so that the neck, shoulder, chest and back muscles, in a single position under the action of micro-external force, more likely to cause spinal instability, resulting in neck, shoulder, chest and back disease The postural strain injury Long-term ambulatory workers, should regularly change the position of the neck and shoulder, usually can do more neck and shoulder muscle exercise, such as double upper limbs of forward flexion, back extension, rotation movement, in order to both relieve fatigue, so that the muscle developed, toughness enhanced. Myth 3: The greater the massage and massage force of the therapist, the more “powerful” it is? Correct: the prevalence of subluxation and reset is not necessary. Segmental degeneration of the spine is a natural law, up to 70% of young people, the elderly positive rate of 100%; reluctantly corrected with external force, forced reset, even if a transient bone and joint reset, may also damage the surrounding soft tissues, resulting in internal and external imbalance of the spine, destroying the established segmental re-stabilization and mechanical balance, but will cause tissue damage. In the daily massage and tui-na, some people think that the greater the force the better, no pain, but feel unprofessional, this is the misunderstanding of many people massage and tui-na. Due to the different causes of the disease, the traditional massage and tui-na technique of Chinese medicine in the past is mainly reset, which has its birth historical background. In ancient times, neck, shoulder, chest and back pain, more from the usual hand and shoulder work and practice of martial arts and other heavy physical movements, easy to break the internal balance of the neck (normal tension of the intervertebral disc nucleus pulposus, normal tension of the intervertebral ligament, and normal pressure in the cervical hook vertebral joint, cervicothoracic articulation joint, small rib joints, rib transverse process joint), directly lead to cervical instability, misalignment, and make the neck problems, in this case, through the appropriate In this case, adjustment by suitable repositioning techniques was the mainstream of treatment of neck diseases at that time. In contrast, modern neck diseases, except for neck trauma, are mostly due to degeneration, incorrect posture, and muscle soft tissue injury, which is due to the disorder of external balance (anterior, posterior, and lateral muscle groups of the spine) affecting the coordination with internal balance, and modern advocates most cases are based on the release of soft tissues, and there should not be too many reset operations. Therefore, it is recommended that the public should not blindly push the reset and should ask the therapist to reduce the strength appropriately when the therapist’s manipulation is too heavy.
