By her orthopedic surgeon, a 72 year old lady with neck pain with some arm pain is referred to a chiropractor for care after morphine, xrays and other care that didn't relieve her neck pain. Degenerative disc disease is an issue for this lady, but in 10 days and 4 visits her arm pain is gone and her range of motion in her neck is 70% improved.
In office care consisted of Cox Technic Protocol I plus modalities to reduce pain. For
at-home neck pain care, she was asked to do hot/cold/hot therapy, attend back school and take
calcium citrate.
