Neck pain can be debilitating and cause a lot of distress. If you are experiencing pain in your neck, contact Back In Balance Wellness Center to make an appointment with one of our chiropractors for relief. We serve Ellsworth, Bangor, and the surrounding communities. Between visits with our chiropractors, there are a few things you can do to alleviate neck pain when it occurs.
Try Massage To Reduce Your Discomfort
Many people find that massage therapy works well to reduce their neck pain. It is important, however, not to apply too much pressure to the affected areas or the condition can become worse. If you are confident that a friend, partner, or family member can massage the area lightly, this can help to reduce your discomfort. If the condition continues, contact our team so a professional can provide massage therapy in our office.
Apply Heat To Your Neck
When neck pain occurs, the application of heat can be very beneficial. This will help to increase blood flow in the area where the pain is present. This will aid in reducing your discomfort. Make sure to leave the heating pad in place for up to twenty minutes and remove it for twenty before placing it back on your neck again. Taking a warm bath can also be beneficial in reducing neck pain.
See Our Chiropractors For An Assessment
Our chiropractic care team is ready to assist with alleviating your neck pain in the comfort of our office. Many people can benefit from spinal adjustments as a way to loosen the joints and increase circulation of the blood. This is often done in tandem with massage therapy, physical therapy, and a few lifestyle changes. One of our chiropractors will evaluate your condition and offer some recommendations regarding treatment to stop your neck pain quickly and effectively.
