Causes Of Neck Pain

Most people would assume that if you have pain in an area, you can blame the cause on that area. This is not so when it comes to neck pain. It is important for you physician to address any other areas that might be causing the pain. To get lasting relief it is important that the other causes be addressed.

The shoulder is one of the main culprits when it comes to referring pain to the neck. Scapular function is one the main areas that is tied to the neck. When treating the neck, it is common that many shoulder issues will improve and vice versa. Scapular stabilization often results in improved neck function. These examples show how the two are interconnected.

Another example is the relationship between the thoracic and cervical spine or mid-back and neck. There have been many studies that have shown that adjustments to the thoracic spine improves neck function and pain.

It is important to understand that all the parts of the body are interconnected. Gait function and the lower spine can also contribute to neck problems. If you are dealing with chronic neck pain it can contribute to the entire spine being rigid.

Chiropractors know how the body works and specialize in biomechanics of how the entire skeleton works. When dealing with neck issues the Doctor of Chiropractic should be your first choice because of their extensive experience in dealing with structural issues and the body’s movement.
