Monthly Feature
Neck Pain
Those with neck pain often have lost the normal neck curve.
An xray of a normal neck curve is shown below.
Definition & Symptoms
Although neck pain can be caused by injury, such as ‘whiplash’ injuries, it is often caused by the cumulative affect of improper sitting posture, reading in bed, poor work habits, stomach sleeping, lack of proper exercise and other lifestyle-related factors. All of these factors cause misalignments in the spine and eventually pain. In fact, the most important factor producing neck pain appears to be spinal misalignments.

Even for people who complain that “stress” is causing their pain, the great majority of those have significant spinal misalignments that are contributing to their condition.

Uncorrected chronic spinal misalignments can eventually cause neck pain. As a spinal misalignment worsens, pressure can be put on delicate nerves, sending the surrounding neck muscles go into painful and movement-limiting spasm, headache, even numbness, tingling or weakness in the arms or hands.

Symptoms may include:
Tenderness, pain and/or stiffness in the neck or upper back
Radiating pain, numbness, tingling, or weakness in one or both arms
