Injuries We Treat Most: Neck Pain
We commonly treat a wide range of neck conditions that can impact posture, movement, and quality of life. The most common include:
Cervical Strain or Sprain
Injury to the muscles, tendons, or ligaments in the neck—often caused by poor posture, trauma, or overuse—resulting in stiffness, pain, and reduced range of motion.
Cervical Disc Herniation
When a disc in the cervical spine bulges or ruptures, it can compress nearby nerves, leading to pain in the neck, shoulders, arms, or even hands.
Degenerative Disc Disease
The natural aging process of cervical discs can lead to decreased cushioning between vertebrae, causing pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility.
Cervical Radiculopathy
Nerve irritation or compression in the neck can cause radiating symptoms such as numbness, tingling, or weakness in the arms or hands.
Facet Joint Dysfunction
Small joints at the back of the spine can become inflamed or restricted, causing localized neck pain or referred pain into the upper back.
Postural Syndrome
Prolonged head-forward posture from phone, laptop, or desk work strains the neck and upper back muscles, contributing to chronic tension and pain.
Whiplash-Associated Disorder
Commonly caused by car accidents or sports injuries, whiplash can damage muscles, ligaments, and discs in the neck, leading to pain, dizziness, and limited movement.
Tension Headaches (Cervicogenic Origin)
Tightness and dysfunction in the neck muscles can lead to headaches that start at the base of the skull and radiate to the forehead.
Symptoms We Commonly See:
- Neck stiffness and limited range of motion
- Radiating pain into the shoulders, arms, or hands
- Tingling, numbness, or burning sensations in the upper extremities
- Headaches originating from the base of the skull
- Muscle tightness and persistent tension
- Difficulty turning the head or looking up/down
- Dizziness or a sense of imbalance (especially post-whiplash)
- Sharp pain with movement or prolonged sitting
Our team is trained in manual therapy, dry needling, and advanced movement assessment to pinpoint the exact cause of your pain and create a plan that gets you back to doing what you love—without pain.
