Neck pain is one of the most common complaints we see at Rock Chiropractic.
With so many people spending hours at their desks, on their phones, or working on digital devices, it’s no surprise that neck pain is becoming more prevalent. If you’re struggling with stiffness, tension, or pain in your neck, we’re here to help.
Symptoms of Neck Pain
Neck pain can present in different ways, but common symptoms include:
✅ Muscle tightness and spasms
✅ Decreased ability to move your head
✅ Headaches related to neck tension
Common Causes of Neck Pain
Your neck is highly flexible and supports the full weight of your head. Because of this, it is susceptible to injuries and conditions that lead to pain and restricted movement. The most common causes of neck pain include:
- Muscle Strains – Long hours spent hunched over a computer or looking down at a phone can strain neck muscles. Even activities like reading in bed without proper neck support can cause discomfort.
- Worn Joints – As we age, our neck joints naturally wear down. Osteoarthritis can cause the cartilage between vertebrae to deteriorate, leading to bone spurs, pain, and limited mobility.
- Nerve Compression – Herniated discs or bone spurs can put pressure on the nerves branching from the spinal cord, causing pain, tingling, or weakness.
- Injuries (Whiplash) – A rear-end car accident or any impact that jerks the head backward and forward can cause soft tissue strain, leading to chronic neck pain.
