Neck Pain Due to Bad Posture? Chiropractic Can Help
Sitting at a desk all day or looking down at a computer screen or phone can eventually lead to neck pain. Poor posture causes your head and neck to tilt far enough forward that the neck has a difficult time supporting the weight of the head.
Because the vertebrae of the cervical spine are so delicate, something as simple as poor posture can cause long-term complications, including neck pain, shoulder pain, stiffness, and headaches. If you’re troubled by any of these symptoms, our experienced chiropractors at ChiroConcepts of McKinney can provide non-invasive neck pain treatment at one of our five North Texas locations.
How Does Poor Posture Cause Neck Pain?
Over time, poor posture causes a misalignment of the vertebrae of the cervical spine. When you’re looking downwards for long periods, extra stress is placed on your neck ligaments. Proper posture means sitting with your feet flat on the floor, ensuring your back is against the back of your chair, and adjusting the chair seat so your thighs are tilted slightly downward. Your head should remain straight, with your ears aligned with your shoulders.
Poor posture causes hunched or arched shoulders, which in time can lead to other serious complications. If you have neck pain, visit us at ChiroConcepts of McKinney for neck pain treatment and lifestyle modification counseling to correct poor posture.
Chiropractic Neck Pain Treatment
One of the first things we consider in patients with chronic neck pain is their work environment and their posture. We can provide lifestyle modification counseling, giving you tips on how to improve your posture and make your workstation or home environment more ergonomic.
Another effective, non-invasive chiropractic neck pain treatment is spinal adjustments. We can realign the vertebrae to relieve pressure, pain, and stiffness in your neck. In addition, we also offer massage therapy and therapeutic exercises and stretching that can provide relief from neck pain.
