Mechanical Neck Pain Headache

Neither SMT nor mobilization (MOB) were effective alone or in combination with PT

SMT or MOB with exercise is effectiveGross AR, Hoving JL, Haines TA, Goldsmith CH, Kay T, Aker P, et al. A Cochrane review of manipulation and mobilization for mechanical neck disorders. Spine. 2004 Jul 15;29(14):1541-8.

Chronic/Recurrent Headache

Prophylactic treatment of chronic tension-type headache Amitriptyline more effective than SMT during treatment SMT is superior in short term after cessation of both treatments

Prophylactic treatment of migraine headache SMT may be an effective treatment option short-term effect

similar to amitriptyline Episodic tension-type headache

Adding SMT to massage is not effective

Chronic/Recurrent Headache

Prophylactic treatment of cervicogenic headache SMT is effective in the short and long term when

compared to No treatment Massage or placebo SMT

Post-traumatic headache MOB is more effective in the short term than cold

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Carpal bone MOB significantly improved

symptoms after three weeks However, only one study

Low Back Pain 31 studies – 5,202 participants met inclusion criteria Acute LBP

Moderate evidence that SMT provides more short-term pain relief than MOB and detuned diathermy, and limited evidence of faster recovery than a commonly used PT

Chronic LBP Moderate evidence that SMT has an effect similar NSAID SMT/MOB is effective in the short term when compared with placebo and GP

care, and in the long term compared to physical therapy Limited to moderate evidence that SMT is better than physical therapy and home

back exercise in both the short and long term.

New Review on Chronic LBP

Preponderance of the evidence for efficacy & estimated very low risk of serious adverse events support SMT & MOB as viable options for treatment of CLBP

SMT and MOB at least as effective as other efficacious & commonly used interventionsBronfort G, Haas M, Evans R, Kawchuk G, Dagenais S. Evidence-informed management of chronic low back pain with spinal manipulation and mobilization. Spine J. 2008 Jan-Feb;8(1):213-25.

Nocturnal Enuresis Weak evidence supports the use of chiropractic

Single small trial (31 treatment & 15 control group) Better than sham manipulation

Manipulation’s Effects On CNS In Pain Modulation

Manipulation of the knee resulted in analgesia of induced hyperalgesia of the paw of a rat

Used selective neurotransmitter blocks Manipulation activates descending

inhibitory pathways using serotonin and noradrenaline

stroke after medical visit People with prodrome of stroke seek care
