Are you suffering Neck Pain?Balwyn north chiropractic centre neck pain

What is neck pain and why do I have it?

Neck pain is soreness or stiffness in the neck region usually due to local structures such as joints, muscles, nerves, ligaments and discs that have become injured or irritated from major or minor trauma.

Additional and related findings may be arthritis of the neck joints, irritation of nerves in the neck, sometimes called a pinched nerve, and poor posture of the neck and upper back. 

What may help my neck pain?

Our Treatment Approach

  1. Clinically-proven spinal manipulation is aimed at increasing your mobility and quickly relieving your neck pain. It is effective for varying durations from sudden/acute, to medium and long term/chronic neck pain in adults.
  2. Advanced massage/soft-tissue therapies are also effective and aimed at relieving your neck muscle pain and spasms.
  3. Rehabilitation/exercise therapy is aimed at increasing your neck strength to decrease the likelihood of recurring neck pain from weakened muscles.
  4. We also utilize additional therapies such as dry needling, taping and postural advice as required.
