There are many possible causes of neck pain, including muscle strain, poor posture, and injuries such as whiplash. In some cases, neck pain may be caused by problems with the bones, discs, or other structures in the neck.
Chiropractic care may be helpful in relieving neck pain by addressing any underlying problems with the spine and neck. Chiropractors use spinal manipulations to adjust misaligned joints, which can help to relieve muscle tension and improve overall function of the neck. They may also suggest lifestyle changes, such as improving posture and using proper ergonomics, to help prevent future neck pain.
