Why Your Neck Hurts
Neck pain can come from the joints, discs, muscles, or soft tissues of the cervical spine. Symptoms may include stiffness, soreness, headaches, or pain that worsens with movement, posture, or prolonged sitting.
In some cases, neck pain may also be influenced by joint stiffness or narrowing within the spine that can affect the surrounding tissues or nerves.
Neck pain may develop gradually from repetitive strain or occur suddenly following injury, including motor vehicle collisions. Your evaluation focuses on identifying the source of symptoms, how they affect daily activities, and what type of care may be appropriate.
How We Treat Neck Pain
Your care is based on clinical findings during your initial evaluation and your individual response to care. When appropriate, management of your condition may include:​
-
Spinal Manipulation ("Adjustments")​
-
Manual Therapy​​​

Therapeutic Exercise​
-
Therapeutic Activities​​​
-
Electrical and Therapeutic Modalities​​​

Re-evaluation​
Treatment methods are selected based on examination findings and updated as response to care is assessed over time.
What to Expect
Following your initial evaluation, treatment is directed toward addressing pain, movement limitations, and functional capacity based on examination findings. Response to care is monitored regularly, and care plans are modified based on clinical findings and patient tolerance.
​
If additional evaluation, imaging, or referral is indicated, this will be discussed as part of your care plan. Care is guided by what’s needed, with clear communication at each stage.

Optional Support & Self-Care
In some cases, general wellness options may be discussed as an adjunct to care. These options are not required, are not part of treatment, and are reviewed only when relevant to a patient’s individual presentation and personal preferences.
