BACK AND NECK PAIN

ACUTE PAIN

Back or neck pain is best dealt with as soon as possible. If you have injured yourself, woken up stiff or sore or have re-aggravated an old injury. Often the pain we feel comes on suddenly but the underlying cause has been there for a long time. Chiropractors look at your overall function to help find the root of the cause.

ACHES AND PAINS

Back & Neck pain can stem from a lot of different causes. It can be caused by the joints of the spine and pelvis not moving correctly. Muscle imbalances and tightness can also affect the lower back and shoulders & neck. Most people wait until they are very sore through the lower back to seek help, which can sometimes make the problem much worse then it needs to be. If you are suffering lower back pain or twinges here and there it is probably best to get this checked sooner rather than later.

HEADACHES

Some headaches originate in the neck these are referred to as cervicogenic headaches. By restoring function and movement to the joints in the neck chiropractic may help headaches ease in some cases.
