We all have studied science and we all know
what a spine is. But how many of us actually know about cervical spine? Our
backbone consists of thirty one bones, which are held together with the help of
ligaments. Our neck is made by cervical spine, and it can get easily hurt by
lack of proper attention or posture.
Cervical Pains can get excruciating if they
are not taken care of properly. In order to get relieved from the cervical
pains, there are few remedies that you can try yourself combined with
prescribed treatment by professionals. These remedies have proven to be
effective in providing relief to the neck and ease the discomfort.
ü The first and foremost thing is to concentrate on improving the neck
postures. Poor Postures can result in out of balance of muscles. This results
in upper body getting tensed causing cervical pains. You can take help of a
professional trainer to understand the right postures.
ü Do stretch exercise on regular intervals throughout the day. Rotate
your neck and clockwise and anti-clockwise direction. Rotation helps our spine
to breathe and improve oxygen with blood flow.
ü Try the cold method. Use ice or compresses to tense the muscles. This
would provide instant relief to your neck. It is recommended to carry these
cold packs to work or while you are travelling
ü Go for certified acupuncturist to get treatments. Acupuncture has
been part of medical treatments for years and is currently practiced in many
countries.
ü Book appointment for massages. Massage therapy helps a lot in
getting the stress away. There are many massages that help in relieving
upper-body tension.
ü Lastly don’t stress yourself too much. Research has proved that most
of the cervical pains occur due to highmental and physical stress.
Apart from these remedies, you can also go
for cervical aids if the injury is extensive. Depending on yourcervical
injury, consult with the doctor the kind of cervical aid best suited for your
pain. Cervical aids are like
collars for your neck that keep your neck posture in the right direction.
Cervical pains are becoming regular these
days and before it aggravates, practicing these remedies would prevent further
damaging of the spine.
