Neck Pain and stiffness.

CONDITION OF THE MONTH – Neck Pain

Are you or anyone you know suffering from neck pain or stiffness?

Many of us spend hours driving and sitting at desks which can cause our postures to become poor and consequently result in more tension in our muscles and joints. It is no surprise that neck pain is the second most common condition treated by chiropractors.

Neck pain can result from abnormalities in both the soft tissues (muscles, ligaments, and nerves) of the neck as well as in the joints of the spine. This could be as a result of wear and tear or also from muscle strain. These can both be a trigger of pain that spreads into the arm and also a cause of headaches.

Research (Bronfort Report, 2010) has shown that chiropractic treatment including manipulation, mobilisation, soft tissue therapy and home exercises can be used to successfully treat neck pain by restoring normal function and movement to the joints in your spine, and by relieving muscle tension.

Book an appointment with our chiropractor Hannah to see if chiropractic care can help you, as a new patient you will receive a special rate of £45 (normally £57) for the initial consultation including a treatment if appropriate.
