Chiropractic Adjustments and Spinal Decompression for Neck Pain
Neck pain can be debilitating and prevent you from completing tasks throughout the day. Along with that, the pain can become chronic without proper treatment. At The Chiropractic Connection in Oakbrook Terrace, IL, we offer non-invasive treatments to reduce your symptoms and improve your overall health.
Causes of Neck Pain
Neck pain can stem from various factors, such as poor posture or pinched nerves. Some other causes of neck pain include:
- Herniated discs
- Whiplash
- Misalignments
- Arthritis
- Sprains and strains
- Degenerative disc disease
- Infections
Treatments for Neck Pain
At our practice, we utilize multiple methods to treat neck pain. Some methods our chiropractor may recommend include the following:
Chiropractic Adjustments
Chiropractic adjustments can be highly effective in managing neck pain by addressing misalignments in the cervical spine. These adjustments help restore proper alignment, reduce nerve pressure, and improve spinal mobility. By correcting structural issues and enhancing joint function, chiropractic care can alleviate muscle tension, decrease inflammation, and help you feel your best.
Spinal Decompression
Our chiropractor may also suggest spinal decompression therapy. Spinal decompression is a non-invasive treatment that gently stretches the cervical spine, relieving pressure on discs and nerves. This helps improve alignment, reduce nerve compression, and promote healing of conditions like herniated discs or degenerative disc disease.
Ring Dinger®
Another option you might consider is Ring Dinger®. This chiropractic adjustment technique applies a quick, manual traction force to the entire spine, including the neck. It is designed to decompress the spine by stretching it in one swift movement, which helps alleviate stress on discs and nerves. The technique may provide immediate relief for neck pain, particularly for patients dealing with compressed nerves or misalignment in the cervical spine.
Massage Therapy
We may also combine chiropractic care with massage therapy. Massage therapy helps reduce muscle tension, enhance circulation, and speed up the healing process. This combination can provide lasting relief by addressing both joint alignment and muscle health.
