Neck pain is one of the most complaints among the population today. In fact, more than half of everyone will experience pain in the neck at some point. Neck problems can be a result of many different issues and when it gets to the point where it is interfering with your life, you should consider a visit to your local Cambridge chiropractor.

Some types of neck pain are brought on by stress. Maybe you work long hours each day and have a great deal on your mind. You might be concerned with deadlines, financial problems, or trouble with the family. This can cause muscles in one's shoulders and neck to become tightened.

When you're constantly under stress, your muscles become tight and stay that way. Tense muscles are weakened and can literally pull the neck (cervical spine) out of its normal alignment. Misalignment can impinge nerves serving your head. This can create neck pain, dizziness, headaches, and you may feel poorly most of the time.

Posture can have a huge effect on both back and neck. This happens if you slouch your shoulders or sit improperly for a long time. Many people who work with computers complain of neck problems because they are not sitting the right distance from the keyboard or monitor.

Neck issues are sometimes caused by trauma associated with injury. When the neck is injured, tissues begin to swell and this inflammation can irritate nerves in the neck. In addition, some injuries can result in a herniated or ruptured disk and this can be very painful. The chiropractic doctor examines you carefully to confirm or rule out many causes.

Your chiropractor in Cambridge is interested in the cause of your pain. This way, he can focus your therapy on correcting the problem (not just blocking pain temporarily). All your therapy options are natural and proven to be effective and safe. It may only take a few sessions before you notice a big difference.
