Do You Have Neck Pain?
The neck is designed to carry the human head, weighing about 10 lbs, WITHOUT pain. If you have neck pain, it’s a sign that something isn’t right. You may have a structural misalignment in your neck. Remember structure = function; poor structure = poor function. Having a great neck structure is crucial – it carries a bowling ball on top of it all day. If you carry your head too far forward, you exert more pressure on your neck and upper back. If that posture continues long enough, arthritis will likely be in your future. Women are especially vulnerable to neck complaints because their bone frames are typically smaller than a male’s frame size. This is especially evident in whiplash injuries in women. We address neck pain/structural shifts in patients every day. This is a correctable condition using chiropractic adjustments, specific postural exercises, and gentle traction.
