New Roads Chiropractic Center Helps Restore Limited Neck Range of Motion and Pain

What is the result of neck pain? It keeps you from repositioning your neck as you want. Pain is effective that way! It keeps us from doing things that could damage us. Ok, that’s not all bad! But neck pain can disturb more than just motion. It can alter daily living. New Roads chiropractic at New Roads Chiropractic Center can help lessen neck pain and restore its normal motion.

NECK PAIN LIMITS MOTION

Not merely does neck pain limit cervical spine motion, it also necessitates compensatory motions to do what must be done. If the neck smarts when twisting to the left, you’ll not do that. That is a compensatory motion. Normal flexion/extension, lateral, and rotational motions have been documented in normal patients. (1) And if you think your capabiloity to reposition your neck alters your life, consider baseball pitchers! College baseball pitchers with limited neck motion during preseason had increased risk of game time loss as well as shoulder and elbow disability throughout the season. (2) That is really life-altering for them and their life dreams! Know that your New Roads chiropractor can tell from a thorough clinical examination just how pain is affecting your normal range of motion and how to help you (your being a baseball player or not!) get it back.

NECK ISSUES INFLUENCE SLEEP APNEA

Another curious cervical spine discovery is that preceding cervical spondylosis – degenerative changes in the cervical spine that often appear with aging, resulting in vertebral bone degeneration, disc degeneration, bone spur formation and the like - and obstructive sleep apnea are associated. Such sleep apnea is associated with cervical spine changes that tighten the airway space such as occur with cervical spondylosis. (3) Cervical spondylosis is another spinal issue your New Roads chiropractor understands well.
