NECK PAIN
Understanding Neck Pain and How Routine Chiropractic Care Could Help
A natural approach to managing neck pain and improving mobility.
What is Neck Pain
Your neck serves as the vital link between your head and torso allowing for movement in all directions. It is made up of seven cervical vertebrae and is supported by numerous muscles and ligaments. Neck pain often arises when these joints, muscles or ligaments become irritated, strained or inflamed.
Common symptoms of neck pain include:
-
Stiffness with limited range of motion
-
Sharp or stabbing pain in a concentrated area
-
General soreness or tenderness
-
Radiating pain from the neck into the shoulders arms hands or head
Neck pain affects approximately 17 percent of adults at any given time. Common causes include poor posture, prolonged screen use, awkward sleeping positions, sports injuries, whiplash or falls. Less commonly it may be linked to infections, growth abnormalities or more serious conditions.
Regardless of the cause, neck pain should not be ignored.

Chiropractic care is a safe, natural and non addictive way to help manage neck pain and reduce inflammation. It offers an alternative to prescription medications or over the counter drugs that are often used to treat pain and swelling.
