Causes of Neck Pain

Our Chiropractor Treats the Causes of Neck Pain

You're likely to suffer from neck pain and loss of range of motion at one time or another during your lifetime. People who work at a desk and spend the day looking at a computer screen, work in awkward positions, or participate in sports often complain of neck pain. At Back in Balance Wellness Center, our chiropractor treats the root causes of neck pain rather than just the symptoms. We have years of experience providing neck pain relief to residents of Ellsworth, ME, Bangor, ME, and the surrounding areas.

Some Common Causes of Neck Pain

The structure of the neck begins at the base of the skull and consists of seven bones known as vertebrae. Those vertebrae comprise what's known as the cervical spine. With the head weighing about 12 pounds sitting on top of that structure, the cervical spine is vulnerable to injury. Here are some of the common causes of neck pain that our chiropractor treats at our clinic:

  • Compression of cervical spine nerves
  • Displacement of discs between the vertebrae of the cervical spine
  • Arthritic conditions of the neck
  • Muscle strains
  • Auto accident injuries such as whiplash

Treating Patients for Neck Pain

Gentle chiropractic adjustments of the cervical spine reposition the vertebrae and relieve pressure on compressed spinal nerves. This reduces neck pain and increases the cervical spine’s range of motion. Massage therapy complements chiropractic care by relieving muscle spasms in the neck and shoulders. Stretching and corrective exercises performed at home can strengthen supportive muscles to help patients remain free of neck pain and discomfort.

Visit Our Chiropractor

When you first visit Back in Balance Wellness Center, our chiropractor will assess your cervical spine and create a chiropractic care plan tailored to your needs.
