Neck Pain Relief
At Gibson Chiropractic, one of the most common types of injuries our patients face is neck pain. It can be due to illness or injury. Sometimes, there’s no way to know what caused the condition. However, it is important to seek out help from your Sacramento chiropractor if you are suffering from neck pain. Specifically, our neck pain relief service can help you gain more mobility and improve your quality of life, even when other treatments have failed.
What Causes Neck Pain?
The neck, or upper cervical spine, is often damaged in day-to-day movement, any type of traumatic back-and-forth movement, and overuse. Neck pain can be caused by a variety of conditions including:
- Poor posture
- Shoulder pain, including shoulder pain after a sports injury
- Upper back pain, including upper back pain from accidents and disease
- Text neck, a condition where damage occurs due to a person looking down at a phone or tablet frequently
- Whiplash, including whiplash sustained as a result of a sports injury or auto accident
How Can a Whiplash Chiropractor in Sacramento Help with Neck Pain?
When you visit Gibson Chiropractic for whiplash treatment in Sacramento, our first step is to provide a thorough evaluation of your condition through a physical exam. We’ll also gather your medical history. This information can give us insight into the cause of your pain as well. Then, we’ll recommend treatment options that may help.
Chiropractic Care
Chiropractic adjustments can often be the ideal way for us to improve neck pain with the use of chiropractic care. The Diversified Technique, for example, will make adjustments to the upper spinal column, near the neck. The Gonstead technique is another option. When you visit with Dr. Gibson, he will provide more specific information based on the underlying cause of your pain.
Spinal Testing
We’ll provide you with spinal testing to understand its range of motion or limitations of it. Our goal is to understand how much motion you have now as well as what improvement you see after chiropractic care.
Other Treatments
We may recommend physical rehabilitation, rehabilitation therapy, and sports taping as methods for improving your neck pain. We may also encourage comprehensive energy psychology, a technique that promotes a greater connection between the mind and body. When you meet with your Sacramento chiropractor, we’ll create a customized treatment option right for your needs. It will likely include a number of these treatments.
