Chiro for Neck Pain
Chiropractic is a natural health care system that can treat the cause of your neck pain and provide ongoing relief. Our chiros will take the time to get to the cause of your neck pain and not just treat the symptoms. This is important to aid in a speedy recovery and long term correction.
Symptoms of Neck Pain
Neck pain can present as pain in the neck, upper back and shoulders and can also lead to a few different types of headaches, including tension headaches, cervicogenic headaches and migraines. Neck issues can also present as stiffness and a reduced range of motion. Pinched nerves in the neck can also give rise to symptoms in the arms and hands such as a sharp, burning or electric pain and can also create numbness and weakness.
What Causes Neck Pain?
The causes of neck pain can be physical (injuries, postural, phone/computer use, sports, repetitive work, arthritis), emotional (stress causes us to tighten up our shoulders, neck and jaw), and nutritional (especially high sugar and low magnesium)
Our modern lifestyle has increased the prevalence of neck pain with the frequent use of electronic devices resulting in ‘text neck’. By far the most common cause of neck pain is a pre-existing problem of one or more of the joints of the neck and thoracic spine.
Neck Pain treatment with Chiropractic care
A Chiropractor diagnoses the cause of neck pain through a thorough history, physical examination and x-rays. Chiropractic care will help free up restricted joints in the neck, spine and extremities. Chiropractic is effective for neck pain as it concentrates on the cause of the pain for long lasting results.
Neck pain prevention and management
Chiropractic care may help prevent neck pain by addressing underlying issues that can contribute to their development, such as poor posture, muscle tension, and spinal misalignment. The goal of treatment is to improve spinal alignment and reduce muscle tension, which can alleviate headache symptoms. Regular chiropractic adjustments can help keep the spine in proper alignment, reducing tension on the muscles and nerves in the neck and upper back. Your chiropractor may also recommend exercises or stretches to help improve posture, reduce stress, and promote overall spinal health. Additionally, lifestyle modifications, such as dietary changes and stress reduction techniques, may be recommended.
Ideally, the best time to consult a Chiropractor is before neck pain begins as Chiropractors are expertly trained to assess and diagnose postural and alignment problems that lead to headaches before symptoms begin. If pain has already begun, a Chiropractor can help diagnose and treat to help relieve the symptoms associated with neck pain.
