Neck Pain in Riverside CA

It may seem like no one understands what your neck pain feels like, but let me assure you that you are not alone. Neck pain in Riverside is extremely common but receiving care that fixes the problem is rare for most patients. Doctors of chiropractic have been successfully treating a variety of causes for neck pain for more than 100 years.

Chiropractic Care for Neck Pain

Treating the cause of neck pain is impossible if you do not know the source of the problem. Doctors of chiropractic utilized diagnostic testing and tools to find the source. By doing this, they are able the find the source and appropriately treat the cause. There are many complex structures in the human body, including the spine but the spine is just as important as it is complex. Your spine protects your spinal cord which is the source of every nerve in your body and every nerve has to pass through the spine. A misalignment also referred to as a subluxation, can create impingement on these nerves and can cause muscles to tighten and spasm. The tightening, although uncomfortable and sometimes painful, is an important defensive response in order to try to protect the spine and the spinal cord. Unfortunately a lot of people in Riverside have spinal conditions that go untreated because they are unaware of them. A popular choice people make is to try to wait for the pain to just simply go away. It is possible for that to happen but what they do not understand is that the pain going away might be worse than the pain itself. Eventually the problem will get irritated again and the pain will come back. If the problem is left alone for too long then surgery may be the only option.

Common Pain vs. Normal Pain

Television and other media outlets try to fool people into thinking that pain is normal but the truth is that is not always the case. The common thought is that because a lot of people have neck pain that means that neck pain is normal but that is not true! That only makes next pain common.
