Chronic Back and Neck Pain

back and neck pain treatment physiotherapy vancouver
In most instances individuals with chronic pain exhibit an increase in resting muscle tone (contraction) which limits blood supply to the region including the muscles.  This results in increased amounts of fascial tissue being laid down as muscles are not able to provide adequate blood flow to the inner portion of the  muscle.  This fascial tissue further restricts motion.  The increased fascia and high degree of muscle tone cause more compression in joints and additionally allow for less movement.  This results in the joint surface being less healthy as they release nutrition in the lubricant and this lubricant is only released in areas where movement occurs.  If a joint moves 75% through it's normal motion, 25% or more of the joint will not get nutrition which can result in arthritic changes to this part of the joint.

At Granville Physio we can use shockwave to restore muscles to an appropriate length and initiate a healthy environment for your muscles and joints that will allow you to reduce your level of pain and increase your level of activity.
