How A Winnipeg Chiropractor Alleviates Neck Pain Naturally

By Hellen Moare


Pain in the neck? A lot of people think that a Winnipeg chiropractor can only help with pain lower down in the spine. The neck, however, experiences a lot of strain from carrying your heavy head around, and from sitting in one position.

Neck pain can be the result of a number of different things. For instance, whiplash, associated with auto accidents, is caused by an abrupt and forceful jolt to the head. The movement can be side to side or back to front and injures the muscles and damages the cervical spine. Whiplash can also occur when playing contact sports. In addition, degenerative disc disease can also damage the neck causing pain.

A lot of neck pain is caused by poor posture and/or a bad sleeping position. A chiropractor can offer advice on your posture, which can reduce pain in the neck and referred pain into the arms. Techniques such as the Blair Upper Cervical that are specially designed to deal with neck pain issues are often employed, along with postural advice and stretches designed to strengthen the neck and restore range of motion.

The practitioner will often provide adjustments to the spine to realign vertebrae. When the spine is realigned, pain subsides. The adjustments are very gentle and the patient often does not feel them.

It has been proven that with the care of a chiropractic practitioner, folks can find effective and safe relief from whiplash and chronic neck pain. This is a natural alternative to invasive surgery and harmful pain medications. The skilled practitioner focuses on solving the issue using all natural methods that relieve and often eliminate pain.

If you have chronic or acute neck pain, consider contacting a quality practitioner for a consultation. They will be able to look at your neck and upper back and establish a plan of care to restore mobility and relieve pain.
