Neck Pain
Neck pain is becoming more prevalent, especially with the rise in mobile device usage and associated poor posture. We have helped many people in Pembrokeshire with this complaint. It can arise due to:
- Sports injuries
- Sprains and strains
- Trapped nerves
- Sleeping awkwardly
- Poor posture (or “text neck”)
Neck pain can often be accompanied by headaches and / or shoulder problems, as the surrounding muscles are all in close proximity. Often, patients report a dull, achy, persistent pain and a degree of stiffness. Sometimes, pain can be of a sharper nature, or cause tingling into the arm and hand. Whatever the symptoms, it is not until you experience such pain that you realise how debilitating it can be.
Chiropractic care may involve spinal manipulation (adjustments), mobilisation and a range of soft tissue techniques to alleviate the pain. By visiting one of our chiropractors, the most appropriate course of action can be determined for your own unique presentation. Once again, lifestyle recommendations can help to prevent relapses.
