What Causes Neck Pain?

Neck pain can develop for a variety of reasons, including:

• Poor posture and "tech neck"
• Prolonged computer or phone use
• Muscle tension and stress
• Whiplash injuries
• Herniated or bulging cervical discs
• Joint dysfunction in the neck
• Sports injuries
• Degenerative changes in the cervical spine

Because every case is different, a proper evaluation is important before beginning treatment.

Common Symptoms of Neck Pain

Neck pain can present differently from person to person. Common symptoms may include:

• Neck stiffness or reduced range of motion
• Pain when turning your head
• Muscle tightness in the neck and shoulders
• Headaches that begin at the base of the skull
• Pain that radiates into the shoulders or arms
• Numbness or tingling in the arms or hands
• Pain after long hours at a desk or computer
• Discomfort while sleeping or upon waking

Who Is This Treatment For?

Our approach to neck pain treatment may be beneficial if you are experiencing:

• Chronic neck pain
• Recurring stiffness
• Poor posture-related discomfort
• Tension headaches
• Neck pain after an auto accident
• Reduced mobility
• Pain that interferes with work, sleep, or daily activities

Who Is This NOT For?

While chiropractic care can help many causes of neck pain, some conditions require additional medical evaluation.

• Progressive neurological conditions
• Conditions requiring immediate surgical intervention

Every patient undergoes a thorough consultation and evaluation to determine the safest and most appropriate treatment plan.
