Deadlifts load the spine in compression, and the spine tolerates compression well while it stays close to a neutral position. The research on lifting posture is less absolute than gym lore suggests. A rounded back is not automatically an injury and a straight one is not automatic protection.
What helps a slipped disc is mostly ordinary: finding the position that reduces the leg or arm symptoms and using it often, walking within what the back tolerates, and changing position before the back demands it, through the 22 hours a day spent away from any treatment.
Chiropractic care for neck and back pain works on how the spinal segments share load through a day. When one segment loses movement, the segments next to it take more, and the ache usually appears in the compensating area rather than the restricted one. That is the reason the painful spot and the source are frequently in different places.
The occiput and atlas meet at C0-C1, where the base of the skull rests on the first neck bone. Read its anatomy, linked symptoms and how the atlas is adjusted.
An upper cervical chiropractor in Kuala Lumpur looks after the top of the neck, from the skull down to C3. Upper cervical chiropractic covers three joints there: the skull on the atlas (C1), the atlas on the axis (C2), and C2 on C3.
Stiff turning one way, or sharp pain at the back of the head? Learn the C1-C2 nerve and misalignment symptoms, the warning signs and how C1 is adjusted gently.
C2-C3 nerve compression symptoms tend to start high in the neck. The usual pattern is a one-sided headache at the back of the head, a stiff upper neck and, at times, a tingling scalp. C2-C3 is the joint between the second and third neck bones, where the turning upper neck meets the rest of the cervical spine.
