How Chiropractic Care Can Relieve Neck Pain and Headaches?

Around half of the world’s total population is affected by various degrees of neck pain, making this ailment one of the most common musculoskeletal health conditions globally. Chronic neck pain, if left untreated, can make it a painful and challenging task even to make simple head, neck, and arm movements. It can lead to excruciating headaches, and can include body and arm pain, making you miserable. Let us take a closer look and understand this ailment in detail and how our Jupiter Chiropractor team can help you resolve the condition and feel better.

What is Neck Pain?

The neck is also known as the cervical spine, our neck comprises of seven vertebrae. It acts like a well-functioning bridge allowing proper head movement. It is supported and connected by a host of ligaments, muscles and nerves. You can feel the onset of neck pain when these ligaments, muscles, and nerves become inflamed or irritated.

There are various degrees of neck pain. While minor neck pain is often ignored, an aggravated state of the same can be agonizingly painful and often debilitating. If you are experiencing such chronic neck pain, it’s best to seek medical attention immediately.

Here are some of the common neck pain symptoms:

  • Sharp, stabbing pain focusing on a particular point

  • Stiff neck with limited movement

  • Tenderness and soreness

  • Pain that starts from the neck and spreads to the arms, fingers, shoulders, and head

While we all experience some form of neck pain now and then, it is unwise to leave the condition untreated. Living with the discomfort of neck pain can decrease your quality of life, affect mental health, and cause several other associated health conditions. Neck pain is a severe physical condition and must be attended to immediately.

What Causes Neck Pain? 

You can develop neck pain due to several factors. Here are some of the most common causes:

  • Poor posture that leads to joint irritation and muscle spasms.

  • Bad sleeping posture. For example: sleeping on your stomach and twisting your head to one side for a long period.

  • Sitting in front of the computer or other electronic devices for hours can lead to chronic postural stress and neck pain.

  • Whiplash injuries sustained due to sports injuries or car accidents.

  • Persistent or degenerative health conditions like cervical disc herniations, osteoarthritis, and many more.

  • Carrying a heavy load for an extended period, such as a backpack or shoulder bag

  • Muscle stiffness and spasms from physical inactivity

How can Chiropractic Care Relief Neck Pain?

Chiropractic care is a non-invasive treatment method carried out to restore cervical alignment and alleviate neck pain. Our Jupiter chiropractor team will find the proper treatment for long-lasting relief. Which is much better than looking for a temporary solution.

The care of a Gonstead chiropractor can be an excellent alternative to prescription medication. It relies on a non-addictive form of hands-on therapy that helps correct the underlying issue, so patients can once again enjoy life pain-free and in good health.

We start the treatment by identifying the primary cause of your neck pain. It allows us to customize our approach and develop a specific treatment plan that offers long-lasting relief.

As discussed before, neck pain can originate due to several factors. Regardless of the cause, chiropractic care can manage and treat almost any of these issues and provide rapid pain relief. Never, ignore the symptoms. Unadressed issues can aggravate your condition, forcing a longer course of treatment to resolve the problem 

Our experienced Jupiter chiropractor will focus on treating the root cause of your neck pain and can offer relief from other sources of chronic pain as well. Treatment prevents the issue from progressing, relieves pain and promotes natural healing.

While neck pain may sound like a general health condition, no two cases are the same. Thus, there is no universal treatment plan for patients experiencing neck pain. After carefully diagnosing the condition and identifying the underlying causes of pain, our experienced Gonstead chiropractors devise specific adjustments and a personal treatment plan to address each patient’s specific needs 

We believe in the body’s natural healing capacity and offer treatment plans that are entirely drug-free. Our patients do not have to resort to pain medications that only mask the problem temporarily. Othwerwise, by covering up the problem with pain medications, you may actually be making the underlying issue worse. Also, medications can cause side effects and lead to increased dependency.

Here are the health benefits you can get from chiropractic adjustment for neck pain:

  • Relief from pain and discomfort

  • Restored range of motion in the neck

  • Reduced irritation and inflammation

  • Enhanced flexibility and mobility

  • Reduced discomfort in pursuing an active lifestyle
