Neck Pain: Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What are common causes of neck pain?
A: There are many different reasons that neck pain may occur. While some neck pain is caused by injury, neck pain can also be caused by sleeping in an unusual position, repetitive motion throughout the day, or staring at a phone or computer screen for an extended period of time.
Q: Will neck pain go away on its own?
A: While some neck pain will go away on its own, it's important to have any pain related to the neck or back evaluated by a medical professional. Problems with the neck can affect the rest of the body. Untreated neck pain can cause problems with the alignment of the spine, as well as joint issues in the upper extremities.
Q: Can a chiropractor provide neck pain relief?
A: While you may think of a chiropractor as working only with spinal alignment, chiropractors are actually trained to treat all areas of the body. Our chiropractor will work with you to find the root cause of your neck pain. From there, you'll work together to create a treatment plan. Most treatment plans for neck pain include spinal adjustment, massage, and lifestyle changes to alleviate the root cause of the problem.
Q: Is neck pain treatment safe?
A: Chiropractors have the lowest medical malpractice insurance rates of any health care professional. These rates are based on the likelihood of patient injury. Chiropractic treatment is one of the safest forms of medical care available. If you have any concerns about your safety, please talk with our chiropractor so that we can understand and work with your concerns.
