Back / Neck Pain

Pain of any kind is an indication that something is not right in your body. Pain is a symptom! Covering up that symptom with a pain reliever is just ignoring the message that your body is trying to tell you. The equivalent of that would be removing the battery to quiet a smoke detector. It doesn’t make any sense.

Back and neck pain can be caused by a decrease in movement of the facet joints on each spinal bone. This decrease in movement can also cause the discs between the bones to become inflamed and bulge, which puts pressure on the nearby nerves and results in the pain. Stress may also be a major issue in causing neck and shoulder pain.

The chiropractic approach would be to find the vertebrae that are not moving properly and causing issues, and give a specific chiropractic adjustment to those vertebrae to restore spinal function and take the pressure off of the nerves allowing the soft tissues and discs to heal.
