Neck & Shoulder Pain Q & A
How can chiropractic care help with neck and shoulder pain?
After a thorough interview, review of medical history and a physical exam, the chiropractor will devise a personalized care plan to alleviate neck and shoulder pain. The chiropractor may use hands-on, natural spinal manipulation in addition to manual therapies to ease tension, reduce pain and increase range of motion. The chiropractor may also talk to patients about lifestyle changes they can make to lessen the chances of suffering from neck and shoulder pain in the future. The spinal manipulation involved in chiropractic care is generally considered safe for people from all walks of life. If patients have questions about the types of adjustments performed by a chiropractor, they can discuss any concerns with the doctors at Bailey Chiropractic. They take pride in offering natural, low-risk, drug-free treatments.
What causes neck pain?
More often than not, neck pain is the result of overuse or injury to the neck. Muscle strains are an example of an overuse circumstance. Working at a computer or maintaining an unsupportive position for too long can cause this condition. Other types of injuries may include whiplash, which happens when a person’s head is suddenly jolted backward and then forwards. The aging process may also result in neck pain when the joints of the body start to wear down and deteriorate. Neck pain may also be caused by certain diseases, such as meningitis.
Neck pain can be a downright annoying ailment to experience. However, understanding the cause of their neck pain can help patients and their doctor figure out the appropriate treatment plan.
What causes shoulder pain?
The shoulder is a ball-and-socket joint and the range of movement is quite large. Joints which are used frequently and repetitively are more susceptible to injury. Shoulder pain can be caused by one or more of the following items:
- Unstable shoulder joint
- Dislocation
- Tendonitis
- Frozen shoulder
- Strains from overexertion
- Fractures to the collar or upper arm bones
