Neck Pain
Finding Relief from Neck Pain with Chiropractic in Newcastle
Neck pain is a common issue that affects many people, often resulting from poor posture, stress, injuries, or spinal misalignments. Approximately 70% of individuals will experience neck pain at some point in their lives, making it one of the most prevalent musculoskeletal complaints.
At Family Life Chiropractic, we understand how debilitating neck pain can be and are committed to providing effective, personalized chiropractic care tailored to your needs. Our goal is to help you find relief, restore optimal function, and improve your overall quality of life.
The Cause of Neck Pain
Neck pain can manifest in several ways, such as stiffness, discomfort, or sharp pain. It may be accompanied by symptoms like headaches, muscle tension, or restricted range of motion. Common causes of neck pain include:
- Poor Posture: Prolonged periods of sitting or standing with poor posture can strain neck muscles and lead to discomfort.
- Injuries: Accidents, falls, or whiplash from car accidents can cause trauma to the neck, resulting in pain and stiffness.
- Muscle Strain: Overuse of neck muscles, such as from repetitive movements or heavy lifting, can cause strain and pain.
- Spinal Misalignments: Misalignments in the cervical spine can irritate nerves and contribute to neck pain.
- Torticollis: Cause significant discomfort and restrict neck movement, making daily activities challenging.
- Osteoarthritis: Wear and Tear on the neck joints can affect mobility and lead to pain.
- Disc Injury: A weakness or bulge in the disc may irritate or impinge nerves in the neck leading to pain, or in some cases radicular arm pain.
