Neck Pain

Neck pain is extremely common and approximately 40% of the population will experience some form of neck pain during their lifetime. One very common form of neck pain is whiplash, which often occurs after an abrupt change from accelerating to decelerating, as occurs during a motor vehicle accident. Other neck conditions that chiropractors see quite often are postural strains and sprains, facet joint irritation, thoracic outlet syndrome, upper-crossed syndrome, disc herniations, and headaches. A chiropractor can diagnose the cause of your neck pain by conducting a thorough history and physical exam, and come up with a treatment plan that can help alleviate the neck pain and prevent the pain from recurring.
