Causes of Neck Pain
Neck pain occurs for many reasons. It can develop as a result of an injury or disease. It is commonly related to poor posture. Many times, individuals will struggle with neck pain that seems to last a long time and doesn’t fully go away. Others may suffer from the inability to move their neck well after an injury. We can help you with all of these situations. Common causes of neck pain include the following:
Misalignment of the Cervical Spine
The cervical spine is the upper portion of your spinal column. It is where the spinal cord travels to and connects with the brain. This area experiences a great deal of pressure and misalignment is very common. Our goal is to realign the spinal column to reduce pressure and pain.
Muscle Strains
Numerous muscles hold the head up and allow it to twist and turn. It is common for things like poor posture while sleeping or staining of the neck to cause muscle inflammation. In this case, our goal is to encourage the healing of the damaged tissue.
Worn Joints
The cervical spine is made up of a number of joints, each interlocking. Over time, these can wear down often due to poor alignment or disc-related complications. Bone spurs can also develop in this area and cause significant pain.
Nerve Compression
Many patients experience nerve compression, where the joints and discs in the spinal column compress. This causes significant pain and limited movement.
Injuries and Diseases
Injury and disease can be the cause of neck pain. Whiplash is one of these. It occurs when the head is moved quickly back and forward, damaging the tendons and muscles. Diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, cancer, and meningitis can cause neck pain, too.
How Chiropractic Care Can Help with Neck Pain
If you are experiencing neck pain, come in to see our chiropractic neck pain specialist. We will provide a full examination to determine the underlying cause so we can create an effective neck pain treatment plan. This may include manipulation which will help to better align the spinal column. During this process, we use forceful, but not painful movements to properly align the spinal column again. This reduces pressure on nerves and compaction of the discs here.
We may recommend other treatments as well including massage therapy. Our neck pain specialist may recommend nutritional support and corrective exercises for you. We may recommend improved posture (as well as posture screenings) throughout your life to reduce additional risk. Back to Mind provides customized neck pain treatment to address your needs.

Stiff Neck
What is Stiff Neck?
A stiff neck is a common problem for many people. Some people wake up in the morning with a stiff neck, others experience this problem after a car accident or personal injury. There are many things that can cause a stiff neck, so treatment of this condition varies. If you suffer from a stiff neck, either because of an injury or as a chronic condition, knowing the causes, symptoms, and treatment can help you improve your quality of life. Here’s what you need to know.
What Are Some Causes and Symptoms of Stiff Neck?
Common causes of a stiff neck include:
- Body posture and positioning while sleeping
- Auto accidents
- Workplace injuries
- Personal injuries
How Do Chiropractors Treat Stiff Neck?
There are many things that a chiropractor can do to treat stiff neck, including:
- Chiropractic adjustments. Chiropractic adjustments enable the chiropractor to realign the spine to improve communication between the brain and the rest of the body, relieve pressure on the nerves and improve the body’s overall functioning.
- Lifestyle advise. Chiropractors evaluate the patient’s lifestyle factors and help patients eliminate problems that could be causing a stiff neck. They may recommend adjustments to sleep habits, daily habits and more.
- Product recommendations. Sometimes a new pillow can help with a stiff neck. Your chiropractor can recommend a product that can improve the alignment of the spine while sleeping.
- Exercises. If you suffer from a stiff neck because of an auto injury, your chiropractor may recommend stretches and exercises to loosen the muscles and restore functioning.
To decide what course of action is best for you, your chiropractor will start with an initial examination and consultation. Often, chiropractic treatments are ongoing.

Text Neck
What is Text Neck?
Text neck is a relatively new condition that affects the neck and spine. People who suffer from text neck pain often do not realize that they’ve been injured because this condition occurs gradually over time. It’s important to know what text neck is, what causes it, and how it can be treated. If you suffer from text neck, knowing the symptoms can help you determine when it’s time to see the chiropractor.
Text neck is a condition caused by spending frequent time bent over looking at your smartphone. Text neck affects the curve of the spine, causing the neck to be bent downward in a way that puts pressure on the spine. Text neck does not occur all at once, but gradually, over months and years of constantly looking down at objects in the hands.
Symptoms of Text Neck
Symptoms of text neck include:
- Sharp or dull pain in the neck and shoulders, often linked to the use of mobile devices
- Frequent headaches, often linked to the use of smartphones, and tablets
- Neck and muscle stiffness
- Tightness in the shoulders
- Chronic poor posture
How to Prevent Text Neck
Text neck is preventable. Most people experience text necks because they bend over their smartphones for many hours every day. People can prevent this problem by limiting their use of smartphones and holding devices higher during use. Your chiropractor can also help you prevent text neck by recommending lifestyle changes that could improve your posture.
What Your Chiropractor Can Do About Text Neck
If you’re already suffering from text neck pain, you’ll need treatment from a chiropractor to restore your neck and spine to proper health. Your chiropractor will start by diagnosing the problem and recommending immediate lifestyle changes.
Some people experience text necks because of working conditions at their offices, while others experience text necks because of personal daily habits. Your chiropractor will identify the main causes of the problem and help you identify alternatives.
At Back To Mind Chiropractic, we provide spinal adjustment to patients suffering from text neck. Our gentle chiropractic manipulations help patients like you restore their spine to proper alignment, thus relieving pressure on the nerves and muscles.
