Before you schedule an appointment, we would like to answer some most frequently asked questions about neck pain so you have more insight.
What Causes Neck Pain?
Before our chiropractors can identify the cause of your pain, we'll perform a comprehensive examination, which may include taking imaging of the affected region, in order to determine a diagnosis. One possible cause of neck pain is arthritis, especially if it is chronic. Arthritis can cause stiffness, a decreased range of motion, and pain.
You could have muscle tension in your neck from your job or interests. For instance, if you're looking down at your phone or tablet for prolonged periods, you can strain the muscles and soft tissues in the region. Neck pain can also result if you have hobbies that force you to look down for longer periods of time or if your computer is not properly positioned.
Additional causes of neck pain include:
- Poor posture
- Whiplash
- Sports Injury
- Headaches
How Does Chiropractic Care Treat Neck Pain?
Once our chiropractor diagnoses the cause of your neck pain, we'll provide you with a customized treatment plan. If you have arthritis, muscle tension, or whiplash, we may recommend spinal alignment that focuses on the neck. You may also benefit from exercise therapy, which consists of our chiropractor guiding you through exercises that work the affected part of the neck and gradually improve your flexion and function in that region. We provide quality care to our patients and will alter your treatments as you heal for long-lasting results.
Why Should You Choose Chiropractic Care?
We recommend trying chiropractic care if you prefer a natural way to relieve your pain. Since the treatments are non-invasive, they are known to cause few temporary or long-term side effects. Chiropractic care can also be used along with other therapies because it doesn’t interact with other treatments.
