With today’s hectic lifestyles, our stress and pain overload is up—and our time and resources for finding solutions are limited. Many of us turn to the internet in hopes of finding quick relief, only to be overwhelmed by conflicting advice and endless information. Fortunately, there’s a simpler answer—right here in Pooler, GA.
Understanding Neck Pain
Your neck, or cervical spine, begins at the base of the skull and contains seven small vertebrae. Incredibly, it supports the full weight of your head, which weighs around 12 pounds. While highly flexible, this area is also especially vulnerable to pain and injury.
Frequent Causes of Neck Pain
- Accidents and Injuries: Whiplash—caused by sudden movements of the head—is a common injury that strains soft tissues and causes significant discomfort.
- Aging: Conditions like osteoarthritis, spinal stenosis, and degenerative disc disease lead to narrowing of nerve passageways, causing pain and stiffness.
- Posture and Lifestyle: Prolonged sitting, poor posture, and weak core muscles place undue stress on the cervical spine.
What the Research Says
In a review published in the Journal of Manipulative and Physiological Therapeutics, patients with chronic neck pain reported significant improvement following chiropractic care. Another study in the Annals of Internal Medicine found that chiropractic adjustments led to better recovery than medication alone, with 68.3% of patients reporting significant improvement.
How Chiropractic Can Help
Chiropractors use targeted spinal adjustments and therapeutic techniques to alleviate pressure on nerves, restore proper alignment, and promote healing. During your consultation, we will assess:
- Posture and spinal alignment
- Range of motion and physical condition
- Neurological function and muscle tone
If needed, diagnostic imaging such as X-rays or MRIs may be ordered. We’ll tailor a care plan specific to your needs—without drugs or surgery.
