In recent years neck and upper back has really been on the increase, something that we now help many people resolve and correct.
Even though the job of the neck and how it supports the head is very complex, it still has the least amount of muscular stabilisation, which puts it into very high risks. Upper back and / or neck pain can occur as a result of trauma or sudden injury, or it can occur through strain or poor posture over time especially with people working on computers most of the day. Most of the time if a person suffers from pain in either parts of the body it affects the other, because most of the muscles that are associated with the neck either attach to, or are located in, the upper back.
There are several causes behind upper back and neck pain such as injury, poor posture, chiropractic subluxations, stress, and in some instances nerve or disc problems. Problems in the neck can also contribute to headaches, muscle spasms in the shoulders and upper back, ringing in the ears, inflammation in the middle ear and restricted range of motion and chronic tightness in the neck and upper back. Also pain or pins and needles into the arms can be caused by neck or upper back problems.
However, Chiropractic or spinal therapy treatment, massage, laser and MBST therapy can help reduce the pain by restoring joint function, reducing swelling and nerve / disc pressure and with MBST Therapy - help to restore cell regeneration in the tissues. By performing a thorough physical and neurological exam to order to locate the source of pain, using X-rays to identify bone and joint health and alignment and then deciding your best treatment plan, we can tailor care to meet you needs.
