Chiropractic Solutions Helps Restore Limited Neck Range of Motion and Pain

What does neck pain do? It prevents you from repositioning your neck as you want. Pain is crazy that way! It keeps us from doing things that could hurt. Ok, that’s not all bad! But neck pain can disturb more than just motion. It can alter daily living. San Jose chiropractic at Chiropractic Solutions can help lessen neck pain and reestablish its normal motion.

NECK PAIN LIMITS MOTION

Not merely does neck pain restrict cervical spine motion, it also requires compensatory motions to do what must be done. If the neck aches when twisting to the left, you’ll not do that. That is a compensatory motion. Normal flexion/extension, lateral, and rotational motions have been recorded in normal patients. (1) And if you think your capabiloity to reposition your neck affects your life, consider baseball pitchers! College baseball pitchers with limited neck motion during preseason were found to be at higher risk of game time loss as well as shoulder and elbow disability throughout the season. (2) That is very life-changing for them and their life dreams! Know that your San Jose chiropractor can tell from a thorough clinical examination just what pain is doing to 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 finding is that previous cervical spondylosis – degenerative changes in the cervical spine that often happen with aging, bringing about vertebral bone degeneration, disc degeneration, bone spur formation and the like - and obstructive sleep apnea are associated. Such sleep apnea is linked to cervical spine changes that tighten the airway space such as happen with cervical spondylosis. (3) Cervical spondylosis is another spinal issue your San Jose chiropractor understands well.
