Understanding Neck Pain:

Causes, Symptoms, and Treatment Options for Neck Pain

Neck pain is a common problem that affects many people at some point in their lives. The neck, or the cervical spine, is a complex structure of bones, muscles, ligaments, and nerves.

 

The neck's primary function is to support the head's weight, which can weigh up to 11 pounds. Any damage or strain to these components can cause neck pain, stiffness, and limited mobility.

 

At Crest Hill Clinic, our experienced chiropractors can help diagnose the underlying cause of your neck pain and provide effective treatment options to help you find relief.

Causes of Neck Pain:

Causes, Symptoms, and Treatment Options for Neck Pain

There are several common causes of neck pain, including poor posture, repetitive head movements, whiplash, degenerative disc disease, herniated discs, spinal stenosis, and osteoarthritis.

 

Poor posture, such as hunching over a computer for long periods, can put a strain on the neck muscles and cause pain. Whiplash, which occurs when the neck is suddenly jerked forward and backward, can also cause neck pain.

 

Degenerative disc disease, herniated discs, spinal stenosis, and osteoarthritis are all conditions that can cause wear and tear on the neck and lead to pain and stiffness.

Our chiropractors can help identify the

cause of your neck pain and recommend the most effective treatment options for your specific condition.

Chiropractic care is a safe and effective way to manage neck pain. At Crest Hill Clinic, our chiropractors are experts in treating musculoskeletal conditions, including neck pain. During your initial consultation, we will thoroughly examine the root cause of your neck pain.

 

This may include taking x-rays or other imaging tests.

Once we have identified the underlying cause of your pain, we will develop a personalized treatment plan to address your specific needs. This may include chiropractic adjustments, physical therapy, and other complementary therapies.

How Chiropractic Care Can Help with Neck Pain

Chiropractic adjustments involve the gentle manipulation of the spine to correct misalignments and restore proper function to the nervous system. This can help alleviate pain and improve the range of motion in the neck. Massage therapy can also be beneficial in reducing muscle tension and promoting relaxation.
