About Neck Pain
Neck pain is a common problem, with two-thirds of the population experiencing it at some point in their lives.
Most people do not realise just how much they move their neck during the day until they find they are unable to do so.
Neck pain can arise from any of the structures in the neck such as nerve, bone, artery and/or soft tissue.
Symptoms can range from pain and stiffness in the neck to prickly/tingling sensations in the arms and fingers; with or without weakness, sharp, shooting pains radiating to the shoulder and/or shoulder blades, as well as tightness and dull aches.
Problems in the neck can also contribute to headaches, ringing in the ears (tinnitus) restricted range of motion, and lower back ache.

Relief Care
Our first goal is to relieve your symptoms as quickly as possible. The severity of your condition will determine the length of this phase. Typically, the number of visits in this phase is frequent and can involve multiple visits to the centre each week.
Rehabilitative / strengthen and corrective phase
During this phase of care, the goal is to remove the root cause of your problem and to restore optimal function. This phase of care is also dependent upon the severity of the problem. The frequency of care can still be multiple visits per week, but unlikely to be as frequent as the relief phase of care.
Wellness Care
Once your body has had the chance to heal, we believe it is important to continue with wellness care by having periodic adjustments to help prevent future problems and enable your body to continue to function at its most optimal level. Your lifestyle, health goals and practitioner’s advice will determine the frequency of care for you.
Frequently Asked Questions
What can I do to help my neck pain?
If the pain is neuro-musculo-skeletal in nature, cryotherapy (ice packs), stretches, and frequent breaks from prolonged sitting and computer use can help.
Will my neck pain go away?
Symptoms are your body‘s way of letting you know there is a problem. Symptoms can come and go but that does not mean the problem has been resolved. The earlier the cause of something is addressed, the better the long-term outcome.
Who should I see for neck pain/will Chiropractic help my neck pain?
You should think about seeing a chiropractor. We have had great results over the years in helping people ease their neck pain.
Why does neck pain occur?
Pain can occur for a variety of reasons: accidents and falls, poor posture, work, frequent laptop and tablet use, as well as inflammatory and systemic conditions. It can arise from bone, muscle, ligament, soft tissue or nervous structures.
Can neck pain/neck problems cause problems elsewhere?
Yes! The nerve supply for the head, face, jaw, arm, shoulder and elbow originates from the neck. If a nerve becomes irritated in the neck or anywhere along their paths, such as into the arms and head, referred pain can result in these areas. This means there is a risk of pain in the head, jaw, lower back, and even in the elbow and shoulder.
