Cervical Disc Hernination

2024年12月29日

• Prolonged Poor Posture

  Forward head posture from desk work or smartphone use places stress on the cervical spine.
• Excessive Stress and Tension
  Stress-induced muscle tension can compress nerves and contribute to herniation.
• Aging and Degeneration
  Age-related loss of elasticity in intervertebral discs makes herniation more likely.
• Sports Injuries or Trauma
  Sudden impacts or excessive force on the neck can damage the intervertebral discs.
• Whole-Body Imbalance
  Misalignment in the pelvis or lumbar spine places additional strain on the cervical spine, worsening herniation.

Acupuncture is highly effective in treating cervical disc herniation. At our clinic, we provide treatments designed to minimize discomfort and accelerate recovery.

1. Pain-Free Acupuncture Treatments

   • Gentle stimulation techniques ensure that even those sensitive to acupuncture feel comfortable.
   • Improves blood flow, alleviates nerve compression, and relieves neck pain and numbness.

2. Precise Targeting of Acupuncture Points

   • Stimulates key points such as Fengchi (GB20), Tianzhu (BL10), and Jianjing (GB21).
   • Releases tension from the neck to the shoulders and scapular region, improving mobility and restoring nerve function.

3. Deep Muscle Treatment

   • Targets deep muscles around the cervical spine, such as the semispinalis capitis, longus colli, and scalenes.
   • Directly reduces nerve compression by relaxing these muscles.

Massage combined with acupuncture effectively alleviates symptoms of cervical disc herniation.

1. Comprehensive Care from Neck to Lower Back

   • Addresses the neck, shoulders, scapular region, and lumbar muscles to restore overall balance.
   • Improves scapular movement, reducing neck strain.

2. Acupressure Massage

   • Targets acupuncture points to enhance blood flow and restore muscle flexibility.

3. Myofascial Release for Enhanced Mobility

   • Relaxes stiff fascia to smoothen movement in the neck and shoulders, restoring natural muscle function.

Achieving balance in the entire body, not just the cervical spine, is crucial for recovery.

1. Pelvic Realignment

   • Correcting pelvic misalignment reduces excess stress on the cervical spine.

2. Coordinating Lumbar and Cervical Spine Movements

   • Improving lumbar mobility enhances cervical spine functionality.

Daily exercises can significantly aid in recovery from cervical disc herniation. We recommend incorporating the following into your routine:

1. Radio Calisthenics

   • Moves the entire body evenly, improving blood circulation around the shoulders and neck.

2. Walking

   • Gentle walking improves blood flow and releases tension throughout the body.
   • Maintaining good posture while walking reduces cervical strain.

3. Stretching

   • Includes stretches for the neck, shoulders, and lower back to aid self-care at home.

1. Pain and Numbness May Shift Locations

   • As nerve compression resolves, symptoms may move to different areas.
   • This “symptom migration” is a normal part of recovery.

2. Fluctuations in Symptoms

   • Pain and numbness may temporarily worsen, particularly in the evening after daily activities.
   • Proper rest and care typically alleviate these temporary exacerbations.

3. Improved Mobility

   • As treatment progresses, the range of motion in the neck and shoulders increases, making everyday movements easier.

4. Better Posture

   • Restored body balance naturally improves posture, reducing strain on the neck and back.

5. Enhanced Muscle Flexibility

   • Treatment helps loosen neck and shoulder muscles, improving movement and reducing pain.

6. Feeling Lighter Overall

   • Normalized blood flow and nerve function lead to a sensation of lightness and reduced fatigue.

7. Reduced Fatigue

   • Chronic tiredness diminishes as bodily functions return to normal.

8. Restored Sensation

   • Numbness or dullness in affected areas subsides as nerve signals normalize.

9. Increased Muscle Strength

   • Muscle strength returns as nerve function recovers, improving daily activities like lifting or carrying items.

10. Improved Sleep Quality

• Reduced discomfort leads to deeper, more restorative sleep, promoting overall recovery.

Treatment Duration

Treatment for neck pain generally requires 1 to 8 sessions over a period of 1 day to 6 months.
The exact number of sessions depends on symptom severity and individual physical condition.
During the initial consultation, we carefully assess your condition and recommend the most appropriate plan.
