Neck Pain

Muscle tightness and strains, and joint inflammation can all create neck pain. Nerve compression in the neck is less common. Degenerative changes in the neck are commonplace as we age; associated stiffness and muscle pain are usually the cause of pain.
Clinical assessment and testing before treatments finds the cause of the pain.
A treatment plan of chiropractic care and medical acupuncture, aimed at relieving pain and increasing range of movement of the neck, offers a route to recovery. Chiropractic care including rehabilitation exercises and postural advice can help improve neck function and pain. Advice and education to help understand how pain works, and how to take control of it, can be fundamental to long-term pain management.

Your chiropractor examines your neck to find out which structures are involved in your neck pain. Chiropractic and medical acupuncture treatments relieve pain and prevent it from reoccurring.
