Spinal Care Clinic uses chiropractic manipulation to ease tailbone pain after a Burlington and Hamilton water ride or water slide injury to the coccyx. 

Burlington and Hamilton Water Slides and Rides: Summer Fun May Hurt
Burlington and Hamilton Tailbone (Coccyx) Pain

What better fun is there on a hot, Burlington and Hamilton summer day than to enjoy a cool-water water ride or water slide? Most all of us can all relate to that! Some Burlington and Hamilton folks will do the sliding and riding, and some will view from distance. Which is better? Viewing from afar! Water slides and rides may go from fun to pain if the tailbone gets damaged. And it does! A new research report explains that water ride related tailbone pain is not reported in the medical writings before, but Spinal Care Clinic knows it is seen in this Burlington and Hamilton chiropractic practice’s patient population. The tailbone is properly named the coccyx, the lowest section of the spine, and tailbone injury may develop into coccygeal instability and pain. (1) Like the rest of the spine, the coccyx has discs and dorsal root ganglia, too. DRG stimulation reduces pain and increases function without any additional problems for patients with chronic coccydynia (coccyx pain). (2) Usual care of coccyx pain is physical therapy and medication treatment. Adding manipulation decreased pain and disability for chronic coccydynia patients (who occasionally experience low back pain and leg pain as well) in just three sessions. (3) If Burlington and Hamilton summer’s water fun hurts you, go to your Burlington and Hamilton chiropractor! Spinal Care Clinic’s gentle manipulation may calm the coccyx’s discs and DRGs and relieve your Burlington and Hamilton tailbone pain.
