If you’re suffering from neck pain it’s important that you know it’s one of the most common symptoms that we treat people for.
Neck pain can have a profound impact on all aspects of life. It is a common problem, with two-thirds of the population experiencing it at some point in their lives. Most people do not realise just how much they move their neck during the day until they find they are unable to do so.
The good news it – you don’t have to live with it.
The correct chiropractic treatment to restore function to the joints and muscles of the neck is very effective at alleviating the pain.
The symptoms of neck pain can vary depending on the underlying cause. Common symptoms include:
A feeling of tightness or reduced range of motion in the neck.
Pain can range from a dull ache to a sharp, stabbing pain.
Neck pain can be associated with headaches that start at the base of the skull and radiate to the forehead or temples.
Involuntary contractions or tightness in the muscles of the neck.
A feeling of pins and needles or loss of sensation in the arms or hands.
A loss of strength or coordination in the arms or hands.
Swelling or inflammation of the neck muscles.
Neck pain can make it difficult to find a comfortable sleeping position, leading to poor sleep quality.
Problems in the neck can also contribute to headaches, ringing in the ears (tinnitus) restricted range of motion, and lower back ache.
