NECK PAIN

 

CHIROPRACTIC FOR NECK PAIN

Neck Pain is one of the most frequent regions of pain our Cockburn Chiropractors see. Most people at some stage in their life will experience neck pain. We have found people who work in front of a computer, at a desk or “look down” for extended periods of time are at most risk of developing neck pain. Increased use of technology has become a huge contributing factor to neck pain and related conditions affecting people’s spinal health and wellbeing. Poor posture and sedentary lifestyles or work circumstances can be linked to developing neck pain in both children and adults. If you develop neck pain it is important to consult with your our Cockburn Chiropractors to understand the cause of your pain and to advise on your best treatment options. If you are unsure we can help, we offer a FREE consultation in which you can book online.

NECK PAIN causes

Our experienced Chiropractors see patients struggling with neck pain on a daily basis, as well as other spinal and musculoskeletal conditions. We frequently consult with a number of differing concerns regarding neck pain, and patients wanting to know the cause of their pain.  Generally, neck pain causes may include:  

  • A sudden increase in, or sustained periods of work demands that require frequent or sustained “looking down”

  • A sedentary lifestyle or overall reduction in exercise or physical activity

  • Poor posture

  • Prolonged periods of sitting or inactivity including time in front of a computer, tv or driving

  • Muscle weakness or low strength

  • Failing to consult with an experienced practitioner following an injury such as, a motor vehicle accident (whiplash)

  • Poor lifting and postural habits

  • Lack of physical activity (exercise)

  • Pathology

Generally this can depend on the cause of the pain, as well as patient treatment preference. For this reason, neck pain treatment and advice is individualised based on each patient’s condition.
