Neck Pain
Expert treatment for neck pain to restore mobility, relieve discomfort, and improve your daily function.
Overview
Understanding Cervical Spine Conditions
Neck pain is one of the most common musculoskeletal complaints we treat, affecting people of all ages. The cervical spine is a complex structure of vertebrae, discs, muscles, and ligaments that supports your head while allowing flexible movement. When these components are injured or stressed, they can cause significant discomfort and limit daily function.
Symptoms
Dull, aching pain in the neck | Pain that radiates down into shoulders, arms, or fingers | Inability to turn your head fully |
Grinding or popping sensations when moving the neck | Reduced range of motion and flexibility | Headaches, especially at the base of the skull |
Causes
Muscle Strain – Overuse from prolonged computer work, poor posture, or sleeping in awkward positions can strain neck muscles and cause stiffness and pain.
Cervical Disc Herniation – When discs between cervical vertebrae bulge or rupture, they can press on nearby nerves, causing pain that radiates into the shoulders and arms.
Arthritis – Cervical osteoarthritis and degenerative disc disease cause joint deterioration, leading to chronic neck pain and reduced range of motion.
Whiplash Injuries – Sudden forceful neck movements from car accidents or sports injuries can damage soft tissues, causing persistent pain and stiffness.
Text Neck Syndrome – Prolonged forward head posture from device use strains cervical muscles and ligaments, creating chronic pain patterns.
Pinched Nerves (Cervical Radiculopathy) – Compressed nerve roots in the neck cause sharp pain, numbness, tingling, or weakness radiating down the arms.
Cervical Spinal Stenosis – Narrowing of the spinal canal in the neck can compress the spinal cord or nerves, causing pain and neurological symptoms.

Maintain Good Posture – Keep your head aligned over your spine and avoid forward head posture, especially when using devices.
Take Regular Breaks – If you work at a computer, take breaks every 30 minutes to stretch and change positions.
Adjust Your Workspace – Ensure your monitor is at eye level and your chair supports proper posture to reduce neck strain.
Use Proper Pillow Support – Sleep with a pillow that maintains your neck's natural curve and avoid sleeping on your stomach.
