Neck Pain Relief in Serangoon

doctor with hands on patients headWe see many patients with neck pain at SpinePro Chiropractic, and we want you to know you’re in good hands! We love helping people with neck pain get back to doing the things that bring them joy.

Our Approach to Neck Pain

We start with a thorough assessment to identify the underlying cause of your neck pain. We then approach this problem in a comprehensive manner, including:

  • Chiropractic adjustment to restore proper alignment and mobility to the cervical spine (neck).
  • Gentle traction, mobilisation, muscle stretches and vibration therapy to help heal and loosen the muscles so they don’t continue to hold the neck in a poor posture.
  • Homework, consisting of specific exercises to strengthen the neck muscles to be able to hold the new, correct posture.
Our three-pronged approach helps retrain your body to hold this healthier posture. This may prevent future problems with your neck.

Although neck pain is rarely related to a serious medical condition, if your neck pain is accompanied by numbness or loss of strength in your arms or hands, or if you have shooting pain into your shoulder or down your arm, seek medical care immediately.

Common Causes of Neck Pain

Because your neck is flexible and supports the weight of your head, it can be susceptible to injuries and conditions that result in pain and restricted motion. Common causes include:

Muscle strains.  Sitting for many hours hunched over your computer often triggers muscle strains. Even reading in bed—especially if you don’t have proper neck support—can strain neck muscles.

Worn joints. As you age, your neck joints tend to wear down. Osteoarthritis causes the cushions (cartilage) between your bones (vertebrae) to deteriorate. Your body then develops bone spurs that affect joint motion and cause pain.

Nerve compression.  Herniated discs or bone spurs in the vertebrae of your neck can put pressure on the nerves that branch out from the spinal cord.

Sports injuries.  Falls or impacts from sports can affect spinal alignment in the neck and cause muscle strains.
