While the causes can vary widely, we are fortunate to be able to offer treatments that can provide real relief. As your chiropractor in Oviedo, we are your resource for neck pain treatment. Please contact us to learn more.

Understanding Your Neck Pain

The neck is truly a remarkable feat of engineering. It is amazingly flexible, capable of finely tuned movements, and strong enough to support your head – which is surprisingly heavy. There is a downside to all that flexibility, though. The many delicate tissues that make your neck so remarkable are easily injured. Some of the most common neck injuries we see include:

Whiplash

Rear end car accidents almost always lead to some form of whiplash. The energy that is produced in such accidents causes the head to whip backward and then forward, putting incredible pressure on the tissues in your neck – far more pressure than they care capable of handling. Your symptoms from whiplash may be quite obvious, like severe pain and loss of mobility, or you might not realize you were injured. Either way, you should come in for treatment immediately if you have been involved in a car accident.

Sports Injuries

An active lifestyle is good for your health, but if you play long enough you will eventually sustain an injury. Neck pain can result from taking a hit, falling, or even repeated motions.

Workplace Injuries

Neck pain is common in workers who have to keep their heads at odd angles, or make repeated motions with their necks. Over time the injuries can grow worse, leading to pain and loss of mobility.

Getting Treatment for Your Neck Pain

While the neck is prone to injury, and neck pain is common, there are solutions available from our chiropractic team. These include:

• Chiropractic adjustments – realigning your neck to take pressure off of nerves and encourage healing.
• Massage therapy – using massage to release tension in your muscles, improve circulation and help adjustments stay in place.
• Spinal decompression – gently stretching your spine to relieve pressure and help discs return to their optimal positions.
