After experiencing 3 weeks of neck pain, Mr. Thuan visited ACC Clinic to find out what was happening to him. His neck was stiff, and he was frequently experiencing dizziness. This condition affected his ability to participate in his favorite sports activities such as soccer and golf.
Dr. Aubrey Gail recommended that Mr. Thuan undergo an X-ray of the cervical spine. Results showed that he was experiencing Stage 2 cervical spine degeneration. Specifically, he had cervical-thoracic scoliosis, narrowed disc space, reduced cervical lordosis, osteophyte formation in vertebral bodies C5, C6, and C7, and anterior longitudinal ligament calcification at C6/7.
Dr. Aubrey Gail prescribed an 18-session treatment plan for Mr. Thuan, which included spinal adjustments, physical therapy, spinal decompression, and rehabilitation. The treatment sessions were scheduled three times a week for six weeks.
After the first treatment session, Mr. Thuan felt some relief and was able to engage in gentle golf practice.
As the subsequent treatment sessions progressed, Mr. Thuan experienced a gradual reduction in symptoms, and his dizziness diminished. He started incorporating home exercises and continued playing golf under the guidance of the doctor.
After completing 12 treatment sessions, Mr. Thuan was only experiencing occasional dizziness by then, which usually occurred during home exercises involving bending, tilting, or turning his head. Dr. Aubrey Gail advised him to continue exercising moderately. Mr. Thuan diligently followed the doctor’s instructions, and his condition improved significantly day by day.
After completing the 18-session treatment plan, Mr. Thuan felt relaxed, comfortable, and completely symptom-free. He has now entered the maintenance phase of treatment, where he visits for one session every month for spinal adjustments and physical therapy to maintain spinal health.
During his first maintenance session, three months after completing the active treatment plan, Mr. Thuan happily reported feeling very comfortable with all his pain gone. He regained full range of motion in his neck, and his golf performance has also improved. He also requested additional exercises for his neck, shoulders, and upper back to practice at home.
