NECK PAIN

With the constant presence of computers, smartphones and tablets in our lives, neck pain is never very far behind. Constantly looking down to check social media updates or using improper posture in a desk chair day after day can spell bad news for the neck.

In addition to these chronic problems, sudden trauma such as a sports injury or auto accident can also take its toll on the neck and back. Unfortunately, this type of pain isn’t just a nuisance; it’s a red flag for other spinal alignment problems that can cause real headaches – quite literally, in some cases – if they aren’t addressed.

Spinal Health from the Neck Down

When you join our Hilton Head Island chiropractic practice as a patient, you’ll be in great hands from your very first visit with us. Our dedicated staff will take x-rays to help find underlying alignment problems, and our chiropractor team will help determine how to provide relief from your neck pain – both immediately and during future visits to our Hilton Head Island office.

While you may already be familiar with manual chiropractic adjustments as treatment, we also offer a full range of supportive alternative therapies that can be incorporated into your individual treatment plan. From massage therapy and traction to soothe and stretch your muscles to corrective exercises to build strength, you will have a number of supportive options to help improve your spinal health and eliminate symptoms like neck pain.

These include:

• Hot, Cold and Moist Heat Therapy
• Electrical Stimulation (TENS Unit)
• Ultrasound Therapy
• Nutritional and Supplement Counseling
• Regular Chiropractic Visits

Is My Neck Pain Serious?

Pain is the body’s way of signaling us that something is wrong and needs correction. Even if you’re only experiencing mild discomfort, if it occurs regularly or after a traumatic event like a car accident, it’s in your best interests to seek chiropractic care preemptively. Chances are, a small pinched nerve or soreness will lead to bigger pain responses as the body attempts to compensate for the injury.

When you visit our Hilton Head Island chiropractic office, we’ll be able to tell you not only why you’re likely experiencing your neck pain, but also how to stop the pain response and prevent it in the future. Simply put, all pain is serious when it affects your quality of life, and every patient of ours is treated with equal care and concern.
