Causes of Neck Pain

Poor Posture

We spend most of our days hunched over computers or straining down at our smartphones. This prolonged strain on the neck muscles can lead to tension and discomfort. Additionally, sleeping in an awkward position or using an unsupportive pillow can also trigger neck pain.

Injury and Trauma

Besides poor posture, injury and trauma can wreak havoc on your neck. Any significant collision around the neck region, whether from sports or rapid shock from an accident, can cause pain and stiffness in the neck. Whiplash text from an auto accident, for example, can have long-lasting consequences for neck health.

Degenerative Conditions

Conditions like osteoarthritis can also cause neck pain. Additionally, disorders such as spinal stenosis or herniated discs, can compress the nerves in the neck, potentially resulting in pain that may radiate into the shoulders and arms. 

Treatments for Neck Pain

While most neck pains can be managed with conservative treatments like rest and over-the-counter painkillers, some situations may benefit from care by a chiropractor. When the symptoms become severe or worsen, our personalized treatment plans can help you get relief, hopefully allowing you to return to your life without difficulty. 

We may use different types of care to help you get relief, such as chiropractic adjustments, corrective exercises, lifestyle advice, and more. Our treatments are non-invasive and natural so you don’t have to worry about the side effects that using surgery or medication for pain relief might bring.
