Neck pain is fast-becoming an incredibly common issue. Sadly, the average, modern individual spends as many as eight to ten hours each day looking down at a computer screen, or hunched over a mobile phone or tablet. Although using technology is often a sedentary activity, it can wreak havoc on the neck. The good news is that there are many natural and effective ways to restore proper functioning, balance, and health to this all-important structure. Consulting with our chiropractor is a great way to find lasting and all-natural pain relief if you currently suffer from neck pain.
Understanding the Widespread Effects of Spinal Subluxation
Whenever a person experiences neck stiffness or neck pain, there’s a high likelihood that this individual is suffering from an alignment issue. When all of the vertebrae are properly aligned, no single part of the neck or back is required to do unnecessary work. Turning or pivoting the head is easy, and discomfort is rarely an issue. If a person is subjected to a jarring, physical impact such as car crash or a trip and fall accident, or if this individual spends an inordinate amount of time with the neck frozen in an unnatural, craned position, however, the vertebrae can shift. This shifting causes what is known as spinal subluxation.
This is the start of pinched nerves, muscle spasms, and many other functional problems. In fact, given that the spine is used as a veritable highway for communication between the nerves and the brain, spinal subluxations and secondary problems like pinched nerves can have a very widespread impact on how the individual feels and performs overall. If left unchecked, these issues and the resulting disruptions in nerve-to-brain communication can even cause problems like chemical imbalances, decreased immune functioning, mood swings, headaches, sleep troubles, and more.
Improve Your Overall Health and Your Quality of Life
When understanding the importance of maintaining good spinal alignment, it’s easy to see why chiropractic care can be so helpful when neck pain occurs. Neck discomfort can range from mildly irritating to downright debilitating. It can also impact how your body performs. Chiropractors work to resolve this issue in a way that many traditional doctors do not. Rather than merely prescribing pain pills that simply mute this discomfort, they work to identify the underlying, structural causes. This way, they can use needs-specific, hands-on therapies to improve the overall functioning of the neck, and to alleviate neck pain naturally.
Many people are under the mistaken impression that chiropractors are only capable of using manual, spinal adjustments to improve functional issues relating to the neck, back, and spine. Our chiropractor, however, offers a variety of different treatments. Schedule a consultation at La Grange Chiropractic in La Grange to learn more. Contact us today to book your appointment.

Category: chiropractic careI have a history of arthritis in my family, so when the orthopedist said I had arthritis in my hips, I accepted that I was doomed to pain and restricted movement. However, as pains increased, I decided maybe a chiropractor could help. I praise the Lord for the difference dr Li has made. I have a range of motion I thought I had lost forever. I assumed I would be on a walker in constant pain! Now I feel 37 instead of 73. What a difference!!!
