Sufferers Find Gresham Chiropractor Offers Neck Pain Relief Solutions

By Elinor Fowle


When a person experiences pain in the neck it is usually caused by a combination of factors. These could include poor posture, injury, stress, or subluxations. A Gresham chiropractor offers an all natural type of care that can reduce the suffering.

When people use poor posture for an extended time they can develop painful neck problems. Often poor posture develops over time. Patients learn through postural correction to keep the neck in a neutral position. When they must sit for long periods, they learn the importance of taking frequent breaks.

Injuries may also lead to pain in one's neck. The structure of the neck makes more susceptible to injuries than other parts of the spine. Whiplash, herniated discs and other injuries lead to pain. Chiropractors offer help that allows the body to heal from such injuries, reducing pain.

Stress, both mental and emotional, can cause pain in the body. When under stress, muscles contract. The tightness can lead to a chronic condition where trigger points form in the body. Chiropractors offer stress relief activities and help by using trigger point release therapy to address this chronic condition.

Misalignment of the spine, known as subluxation can cause pain. The condition often places pressure on other tissues causing pain. The chiropractic adjustment helps to restore the spine to balance and allows nerves to heal so the body can function properly.

Over time or during a trauma, the outer layer of the discs in the neck can tear. This allows the fluid inner material to leak and press on other tissues, resulting in pain. While disc injuries are less common in the neck than the lumbar region, they do occur and can cause pain.

When patients experience neck pain a Gresham chiropractor can evaluate the situation. The doctor then works with the patient to develop a therapy plan. Chiropractic is all natural and does not require surgery or use of medication.
