Chiropractic Solutions for Chronic Neck Pain: Vancouver’s Trusted Experts
Why choose Chiropractic Solutions for Chronic Neck Pain: Vancouver’s Trusted Experts from painPRO Clinics?
Chiropractic Solutions for Chronic Neck Pain: Vancouver’s Trusted Experts – Neck pain is the second most common complaint area coming into the Vancouver Chiropractic office, with the first being lower back pain. The incidence of neck pain has been estimated to be approximately 66% of the population over their lifetime (1). It can be categorized into acute (days), subacute (weeks) or chronic (>3 months).
In the absence of the following symptoms, our trusted experts can offer chiropractic solutions for chronic neck pain:
- Significant trauma to the head or neck (for example: severe motor vehicle accident or dive to the bottom of a pool)
- Severe unchanging local tenderness
- Recent and unexplained weight loss
- Unexplained fever
- Chronic steroid use
- History of cancer
Even with the above, a consultation or discussion and evaluation is worth your time, as a chiropractor will direct you to the appropriate medical office, specialist or request imaging from your family doctor or a local walk-in clinic.
The education of a chiropractor is extensive. We examine the neck and surrounding areas to present each patient with a diagnosis and plan for care. Neck pain may have associated symptoms down the arm, like tingling, numbness, sharp, shooting pain or reduced arm function like grip strength or finger dexterity.
Long term solutions depend on your symptomatic presentation. Current evidence suggests multi-modal care as the leading answer to chronic neck pain of musculoskeletal (muscle, joint, and nerve) related diagnoses (1,2). This means there will be layers to your care plan. We introduce different components depending on how the body responds.
I build trust with my patients by explaining the purpose of the treatment I’ve selected for their condition and providing options that are safe, comfortable and effective.
Options I often suggest in my office are:
- Spinal mobilizations
- Spinal and joint manipulation or adjustments
- Soft tissue care: manual release, local vibration or instrument-assisted techniques
- Drop piece table work
- Therapeutic exercise
- Home care instructions
- Expectations surrounding when, how often and what to expect in our sessions
- Home, office or sleeping ergonomics information
