Neck Pain

Neck pain is fairly common and affects people of all ages. According to statistics, an estimated 50% of individuals experience some degree of neck pain at some point. The stats also suggest that its annual prevalence rate among US adults is more than 30%, which is staggering considering the impact it has on the quality of life.

Most types of neck pain go away on their own within a week or two; however, those resulting from illnesses, such as cervical radiculopathy, rheumatica, polymyalgia, rheumatoid arthritis, infection, ankylosing spondylitis, and tumors, require medical treatment. If left unattended, they usually start interfering with normal living activities, reducing the quality of life. If you have neck pain which isn’t getting better even with pain-relief medication, you should seek neck pain chiropractic treatment in Valley Center as your safest course of action.

What is Chiropractic Care?

Chiropractic is an alternative medicine concerned with the diagnosis and treatment of a range of musculoskeletal disorders. It’s non-surgical with zero side effects, which is why many people turn to it for an alternative, natural treatment. According to statistics, more than 27 million Americans seek chiropractic care each year to get relief from their condition.

What does a chiropractor do?

A chiropractor diagnoses and treats mechanical disorders of the nervous and/or musculoskeletal system. Typically, they focus on hands-on manipulation of the body's musculoskeletal structures to redress the alignment. This is because they believe that the correct alignment of the body’s musculoskeletal structure helps improve the body's ability to treat itself. By working on different musculoskeletal structures, they aim to restore the mobility of the joints that may or may not be affected by the surrounding injured tissues or structures.
