  • Massage for Old Injuries Injuries Such As Chronic Back Pain, Trick Knees, and Sticky Shoulders Are Not Necessarily Something You Just Have to Live with Forever
    Massage for Old Injuries Injuries such as chronic back pain, trick knees, and sticky shoulders are not necessarily something you just have to live with forever. Massage will help, depending on the extent of the injury, how long ago it occurred, and on the skill of the therapist. Chronic and old injuries require deeper and more precise treatments with less emphasis on general relaxation and working on the whole body. Massage is most effective in releasing adhesions and lengthening muscles that have shortened due to compensatory reactions to the injury. Tight and fibrous muscles not only hurt at the muscle or its tendon, but can also interfere with proper joint movement and cause pain far away from the original injury. This work has specialized names and advanced training credentials --such as orthopedic massage, neuromuscular therapy, myofascial release, medical massage. Our massage therapists at the club, are trained to combine the best of the specialties. A recent Consumer Reports article surveyed of thousands of its readers and reported that massage was equal to chiropractic care in many areas, including back and neck pain. Massage also ranked significantly higher than other forms of treatment, such as physical therapy or drugs. If that nagging injury persists, consider booking a massage with us. Be sure to discuss the injury with your practitioner: How did you receive the injury? Have you reinjured it? And what exactly are your symptoms? Often, the body compensates in one area to protect another that has been traumatized, and this can create new problems. Together we can create a treatment program to help you.

According to acupuncture theory, these acupuncture points lie along meridians along which qi, a kind of vital energy, is said to flow. There is no generally-accepted anatomical or histological basis for these concepts, and modern acupuncturists tend to view them in functional rather than structural terms, (as a useful metaphor in guiding evaluation and care of patients). Acupuncture is thought to have originated in China and is most commonly associated with Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). Different types of acupuncture (Classical Chinese, Japanese acupuncture) are practiced and taught throughout the world. Bowen Technique The Bowen Technique is one version of a group of technical interpretations of the work of Australian osteopath Tom Bowen (1916–1982) known as Bowen Therapy, which is a holistic system of healing.

  • Geometry and Reporting Quality, NMA for CAM Interventions
    Geometry and Reporting Quality, NMA for CAM Interventions September 1, 2016 Assessing topics, geometry and reporting quality of network meta-analyses involving CAM interventions (study protocol) 1. Introduction While traditional pairwise meta-analysis has long been a vital component of evidence based medicine, it is increasingly common for clinicians and decision-makers to need answers to research questions which require the comparison of more than two interventions. Traditional meta-analytic methods are not able to answer such questions because the corresponding statistical framework is limited to comparison of two treatments at a time. Network meta-analysis (NMA) is a widely used approach to derive comparisons of treatment effects between interventions that may not have been compared directly in head-to-head clinical trials, or for which both direct and indirect evidence is available for synthesis.1-3 It can be described as a generalization of pairwise meta-analysis which enables the use of both direct and indirect evidence, and its framework enables the combination of this evidence to compare many treatments in a unified analysis, as long as there exists sufficient randomized trials to link all of the interventions together. The Knowledge Synthesis Group at the Ottawa Hospital Research Institute (OHRI KSG) is a CIHR-funded center for the performance of network meta-analysis. Amongst our current projects, we are currently performing two network meta-analyses which involve Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM) interventions: one

  • Green Exercise and Mg-Ca-SO4 Thermal Balneotherapy for the Treatment of Non-Specific Chronic Low Back Pain
    Huber et al. BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders (2019)20:221 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12891-019-2582-4 RESEARCHARTICLE Open Access Green exercise and mg-ca-SO4 thermal balneotherapy for the treatment of non- specific chronic low back pain: a randomized controlled clinical trial Daniela Huber1,2†, Carina Grafetstätter1†, Johanna Proßegger1, Christina Pichler1, Ewald Wöll3, Martin Fischer3, Martin Dürl2, Karin Geiersperger2, Melanie Höcketstaller2, Stefan Frischhut4, Markus Ritter5,6 and Arnulf Hartl1* Abstract Background: Non-specific chronic low back pain (nscLBP) has a high socio-economic relevance due to its high incidence, prevalence and associated costs. Therefore, it is essential to evaluate effective therapeutic strategies. This study examines the effects of moderate mountain exercise and spa therapy on orthopedic and psychophysiological parameters. Based on a three-armed randomized controlled trial, guided mountain hiking tours and balneotherapy in thermal water were compared to a control group. Methods: Eighty patients with diagnosed nscLBP were separated into three groups: The two intervention groups GE (green exercise) and GEBT (green exercise and balneotherapy) undertook daily mountain hiking tours, whereas the GEBT group got an additional treatment with baths in Mg-Ca-SO4 thermal water. The third group (CO) received no intervention. GE and GEBT group were treated for 6 days; all groups were followed up for 120 days. Results: Compared to GE and CO group, the GEBT treatment showed significant improvements of pain, some orthopedic parameters, health-related quality of life and mental well-being in patients with nscLBP. Conclusions: The results of this study confirmed a benefit of mountain hiking combined with Mg-Ca-SO4 spa therapy as a multimodal treatment of patients with nscLBP.
