Neck Pain
This is Dr. Lyle R Van Hemert of Align Chiropractic in Sioux Falls, South Dakota. This video deals with one of the most frustrating conditions in health care in America today, neck pain. Most people think that neck pain is a common occurrence and that there is not much you can do about it, nothing can be further from the truth. There are many causes of neck pain from daily stress, injury, automobile accidents, sleeping incorrectly, and tight muscles.N
Causes
Neck pain can appear to come out of nowhere, but there is usually a cause. When neck pain appears to come out of nowhere the cause is usually years of neglect that add up, leading to muscle spasms causing your neck pain. There are several specific incidences that can cause neck pain such as overuse from sports activities, automobile accidents, sleeping wrong, over exercising etc. Chiropractors are specialist in dealing with neck problems. Chiropractic care is very effective for the treatment of neck pain because it treats the cause of the pain and does not mask the symptoms by medication.
Exercises for Neck Pain
After receiving adjustments to help gently realign the spine, neck exercises are needed to help stabilize and hold the spine in its new position. There are typically four neck exercises that can can be done and recommended. The four exercises are flexion, extension, left lateral, and right lateral flexion. These exercises are either done at home or in a rehabilitation setting in the clinic depending on the specific condition of the neck.
Chiropractic Care is all Natural and Conservative Care
Chiropractic care gets to the cause of your neck pain. Chiropractic care gently adjusts your neck bones to take pressure off of the nerves, this allows your muscles to relax naturally. Chiropractic care does not mask your symptoms unlike over-the-counter medication. There’s a lot of published literature showing chiropractic care to be very effective for neck pain.
Care for your Neck Pain
The care of your neck is your responsibility just like every other aspect of your healthcare. Chiropractors can help assist you through an episode of neck pain and give you important instructions for how to prevent it in the future.
