How A Geneva Chiropractor Helps Neck Pain Sufferers Find Relief

By Lance Aldinger


Many people suffer from chronic and severe neck pain. Sadly, there aren't many store-bought or prescription medications that can alleviating this pain effective and in a long-term manner. It is usually best to consult with a Geneva chiropractor when seeking lasting relief.

This pain could be the result of a jarring impact that you have recently experienced. For instance, you may have been in an auto accident or you may have tripped and hurt yourself. Events like these can cause the vertebrae to shift or slip, which in turn creates spinal subluxations.

Subluxations make it necessary for various muscle groups and structural systems to work a lot harder than they are meant to. This can lead to muscle stress, muscle spasms and other forms of discomfort. Your provider can resolve subluxations by using manual adjustments. This is a hands-on approach that produces gradual improvements over multiple office visits.

High impact events can also cause whiplash, which is a form of joint dysfunction. Inversion table therapy is a form of chiropractic care that can reduce both tension and pressure on your spine so that you can turn your head with both comfort and ease. Reducing joint stress is also a critical part of expediting and supporting the body's natural healing process.

Neck pain can be caused by a number of common life habits. For example, you may be spending an inordinate amount of time with your neck stooped over a technical gadget such as a laptop, phone or computer. It could be beneficial to start using ergonomic equipment and to limit how often you engage in repetitive motion activities.

Chiropractors are known for designing and implementing multi-pronged therapy plans that are specific to the needs of each patient. Thus, your care may include recommendations for altering your life habits, inversion for alleviating spinal stress or nerve compression and manual adjustments for improving alignment and reducing joint dysfunction. Collectively, these efforts will help you feel better and move easier.
