Neck pain (cervical spine) 💥
•••
Most of us have experienced one or many episodes of neck pain. Here are just some of the factors mentioned by many patients:
🔹 sleeping position
🔹 extended periods of computer work
🔹 car accidents
🔹 turning the head to fast
🔹 stress
🔹 working out (altered biomechanics)
🔹 posture
Neck pain can in turn cause:
▫️headaches
▫️spasm
▫️difficulty concentrating
•••
It is a common condition with a variety of causes:
🔺trauma to the musculoskeletal system
🔺muscle/tendon sprain/strain
🔺disc conditions
🔺age related changes (degenerative)
🔺altered biomechanics (tech neck)
🔺organic conditions
Finding the pain generator and the root cause is important so that the proper course of care can be discussed and set into motion. Also ruling out serious causes is a prime reason for a thorough examination to allow for a referral to a specialist, if needed.

Conservative treatment such as chiropractic, physiotherapies, massage or physical therapy can help to alleviate symptoms, provide relief, decrease inflammation and rehabilitate the involved structures. This can help to reduce the imbalance and allow for optimal musculoskeletal function.
