Chiropractic for Neck Pain

Neck pain can be an extremely debilitating condition, affecting a person’s ability to function normally in their everyday life. For example, someone with severe neck pain may have difficulty performing simple tasks like walking or driving, since the pain and stiffness in their neck can make it difficult to move their head and shoulders freely.

Additionally, individuals with chronic neck pain may experience mental and emotional side effects, such as depression or anxiety. Finally, neck pain can also affect a person’s ability to sleep, which can further exacerbate the symptoms of this condition.

What Causes It?

Everyone has had a stiff neck at some point. Here are some common causes:

  • Arthritis
  • Disc degeneration
  • Joint Subluxations
  • Narrowing of the spinal canal
  • Strain
  • Trauma from accidents
In rare cases, it may be a sign of something more serious, so it is important to monitor symptoms closely.

The Power of Prevention
