Research published in 2014 found adding mechanical traction to the treatment of those patients with neck joint pain had better results than those received only 'conventional medical treatment'.

Let's talk about ELECTRICAL MUSCLE STIMULATION🔶
"Electrical muscle stimulation, called E-stim, uses special devices to send electrical impulses through the skin to target nerves or muscles. There are a few types of electrical muscle stimulation. The most common forms include transcutaneous electric nerve stimulation (TENS) and electrical muscle stimulation (EMS). TENS and EMS involve applying electrodes to the skin near an affected muscle to send an electrical current to the area. This current causes rhythmic muscle contractions.

EMS may help the muscles respond to natural signals to contract. This response helps strengthen or retrain a muscle after surgery or an injury. Healthcare professionals may recommend TENS therapy to help increase blood flow to the area and reduce pain. This technique help muscle firing patterns."

Let's talk about DRY NEEDLING🔶
"Dry needling is a treatment that healthcare providers use for pain and movement issues associated with myofascial trigger points. With this technique, a provider inserts thin needles into or near your trigger points. The needles stimulate your muscles, which causes them to contract or twitch. This helps relieve pain and improve your range of motion."

Did you know!?
An article published in 2015 studied whether spending time in nature was actually as good for your health as 'they' say. Their experiment found that participants that went on a 90 minute walk outside (through nature) reported lower levels of over-thinking and reduced neural activity in the brain associated with mental illness! 🌳

Okay, so we know that today is maybe a bad example because it's kind of rainy, but spend some time outside! 🌸
