Chiropractic Treatment of Neck Pain
Unlike the upper back and to a lesser extent the lower back, the neck is very flexible and has a greater degree of movement in all planes. This flexibility is a good thing as it allows us to move our heads and necks easily and smoothly.
The downside is that the neck is the primary support and shock absorber for the head, which is heavier than you may think. The dawn of the computer age means that many of us spend hours in front of our screens. Over time, the neck curve can begin to straighten and reduce the shock absorbing ability of the neck and consequently increase the compressive force acting on the joints and vertebra of this part of the spine.
Common problems include mechanical joint pain, nerve entrapment from bulging or prolapsed discs in the lower neck and muscle tension. Chiropractic treatment aims to restore joint movement, relieve nerve entrapment, reduce muscle spasm and strengthen the neck to prevent these problems in the long run.
I am very enthusiastic about fitness however I managed to indure my shoulder. For a long time I tried many different exercises to alivate the clicks pops and sometimes pain but to no avail. Andrew haverver from the very first session madey arm feels like it was new I could use it to train again and we have gotten rid of all of the big clicks and are still currently working though the rest. If you want to alivate some pain Andrew is your guy.
Andrew is fantastic! I’ve been visiting him for almost 2 years. Initially once a week and now every 6 weeks, due to how much he has improved the issues with my back.I’ve finally got my life back and it’s all thanks to Andrew!If you’re looking for a chiropractor who genuinely cares and caters the sessions based specifically on your pain points, look no further 🙂
I had a great experience visiting Andrew at Chiro London (Waterloo) . He was welcoming, the clinic was clean and well-organized, and Andrew was knowledgeable and attentive. After just a few sessions, I’ve noticed significant improvement in my back pain,. He took the time to explain everything clearly and made me feel comfortable throughout the process. Highly recommend to anyone seeking chiropractic care!”
I have been a patient for over a year and I absolutely recommend this clinic!Andrew, other than revealed himself as great chiropractor, has been also an incredible supporting person that played a major role in my rehabilitation journey!
A few months ago I was referred to Andrew at Chiro London for lower back pain. Andrew helped me enormously and very quickly noticed a huge difference and seeing a difference in my everyday routine and have improved movement in the gym. Andrew is professional and very knowledgeable, helping me understand and advise on best treatment and way forward. And at a great price too!
I have been suffering from severe chronic spinal pain for many years because of disc protrusions in my neck and lower back, and as a result has seriously affected my quality of life, relationships and hope for the future.My whole life stops when flareups become debilitating, and it’s during these episodes that I’ve wanted to end my life.I’ve been a regular patient at the pain clinic where I receive routine pain psychology appointments to help manage my mood and emotions around the pain.I’ve also seen countless chiropractors and osteopaths and their treatments would only take the edge of the pain while I was waiting for my spinal injections.However, my life suddenly changed after I began treatment with Andrew. I first went to see him for my neck pain which gave me regular headaches and nausea on a daily basis. Within 3 treatments, my pain levels drastically improved and my headaches and nausea diminished substantially by about 95%. He also treats my lower back and I no longer feel any reason for further spinal injections or pain clinic appointments.God knows what I would have done if I hadn’t found Andrew. I would highly recommend him to anyone who is currently going through a similar story that I had to go through. He is very gifted at what he does, and after a thorough examination, he will sense straight away what needs to be done.Going to Andrew has been a life changing experience for me. I now see him once every 6 weeks for maintenance treatments at a very reasonable price, which for me is an incredibly small price to pay in order for me to get my life back!
