Common Causes of Neck Pain

Whiplash

Whiplash occurs when the head or neck is forcefully thrust to one side and then rebounds. It can cause muscle stiffness and pain in the discs, joints, and ligaments.

Aging

As we age, we can develop the following issues that can cause neck pain:

  1.  Degenerative Disc Disease: This disease reduces the elasticity in the discs, potentially resulting in a bulging or herniated disc.
  2. Spinal Stenosis: Spinal stenosis is a narrowing of the spaces in your spine that causes improper functioning of the nerves in the vertebrae.
  3. Osteoarthritis: Osteoarthritis is a disorder in the joints that leads to deterioration of cartilage and bone spurs.

Tension

Everyday stress can cause muscle stiffness in the neck and shoulders, which can lead to pain. The longer the stiffness continues, the worse the pain may become. The way you walk, sleep, or sit can all lead to poor posture and tension in the neck and shoulders.

How to Treat Neck Pain

The treatment plan that is developed to help the patient will vary depending on the extent of the damage, how long ago it began, what initially caused the pain to manifest, and other factors. Chiropractic solutions will likely involve the following:

Neck and Spinal Adjustments

Chiropractic adjustments can help restore the neck’s range of motion and reduce pain and stiffness. You will likely experience some relief after an adjustment, but it can take several sessions to provide the full benefits. Additionally, as adjustments only address part of the problem, the patient will likely need other treatments as well.

Massage

A lot of neck pain comes from tension in the neck and shoulders, so relieving that tension can play a pivotal role in healing and pain relief. Massage therapy is a very effective tool to treat neck pain.

Exercises and Stretches

The chiropractor will recommend exercises and stretches that can be done at home daily to help prevent further tension.

Lifestyle Changes

You might need to pay more attention to your posture, get a new pillow or mattress, exercise more often, or several other things that can affect your recovery. Your chiropractor will help determine what changes should be made.
