There needs to be a proper history, examination, and possibly x-rays to identify the cause of your cervical spine pain. The majority of the time is yes. I will collaborate with other providers such as pain management and surgeons every once in a while to get the best outcome for my patients.
This is something chiropractors are excellent at helping. I would go to activerelease.com and find a provider who does this technique near you.
Neck pain, especially in the morning is often associated with OA (osteoarthritis of the spinal joints and degeneration of the spinal discs. If you notice crepitus (popping, clicking, grinding noises or sensations in your head and neck with movement, you probably have developing OA in your neck. Or have you been sleeping on your stomach at night?
Absolutely
Neck pain is a common condition that chiropractors treat with adjustments, and other therapies such as exercise, ultrasound, electrical stimulation or muscle work. Generally patients respond well to care.
Yes they can! I would make sure you find a chiropractic that also does muscle work to make sure your postural/neck muscles aren’t locked up as well since you have pain in the morning.
Neck pain is commonly treated with Chiropractic care. Since you are waking with it in the morning I would check your pillow and that it is supporting your neck properly.
Chiropractic is great for helping to reduce pain in the neck. Gentle manipulation of the joints and/or stretching the surrounding muscles usually takes care of most common causes of neck pain. A proper examination should be performed prior to treatment to determine an accurate
diagnosis. I hope this info is helpful to you. Take care and be well.
Yes we can help with neck pain.
We need to see you in the office to rule out other issues first
Hello, it's certainly possible. However, I don't accept Medicare as a form of payment. Will this be a problem?
I see this on a daily basis. All depends on the severity of your pain and a proper evaluation and possibly imaging to determine what the real problem really is. Conservative care would be adjustments and adding passive therapies such as Electric Stim, Ice/Heat, and other chiropractic modalities. This is making sure your condition can be treated conservatively. Need a proper diagnosis.
