Neck Pain Q & A

How common is neck pain?

Most people experience neck pain sometime during their lives. However, some patients experience neck pain more frequently than others, or they experience more severe pain. For these patients, neck pain can lead to physical limitations and a poor quality of life.

What causes neck pain?

Neck pain can have many different causes. However, 1 of the most common causes of neck pain is a forward head posture. This posture puts unnecessary pressure on the neck, which leads to pain. Some patients also experience neck pain because of structural problems, such as herniated discs, bone spurs, or problems with the alignment of the vertebrae. In addition, chronic conditions like arthritis may contribute to neck pain.

How can Advanced Back & Neck Pain Center treat neck pain?

Patients with neck problems experience many symptoms including, discomfort in the neck, muscle spasms, tightness, reduced range of motion, and headaches. The doctors at Advanced Back & Neck Pain Center treat neck pain with a combination of physical therapy, massage therapy, and chiropractic care.

The purpose of chiropractic care is to address structural issues in the neck and improve its stability. Massage therapy works to relax tense muscles in the neck, and physical therapy works to improve range of motion and strength. Together, these treatment modalities alleviate the patient’s neck pain and help the patient avoid future injury.

Is neck pain serious?

In most cases, neck pain isn’t a sign of a serious condition. However, it may rarely indicate a condition that requires treatment from a specialist. When a new patient comes in with neck pain, the doctors at Advanced Back & Neck Pain Center review the case carefully to rule out any serious conditions that may be contributing to the patient’s neck pain.

When will patients notice the results of neck pain treatment?

Every case of neck pain is different. While some patients experience immediate relief after beginning treatment at Advanced Back & Neck Pain Center, others need to attend multiple treatment sessions before they see the full results of treatment.
