The neck and spinal cord are comprised of small bones piled on top of one another. This is known as the vertebrae column. This column protects the spinal cord and supports the head, and forms the structure through which information and impulses to the brain pass through. Neck pain affects many people around the globe. If you suffer from neck pain and have been struggling to find relief, worry no more. At True Balance Chiropractic & Physical Therapy in Mansfield, we offer comprehensive chiropractic solutions to neck pain.
Diagnosis of Neck Pain
Treatment of neck pain is backed up by proper analysis of symptoms. In most cases, neck problems do not require specific tests, but at True Balance Chiropractic & Physical Therapy, our specialists may request an MRI scan, x-ray, or a blood test to get a clearer picture of your condition.
Causes and Symptoms of Neck Pain
General back pain, which is experienced by most people at some point in their lives, is known as non-specific pain. Apart from holding the neck in an improper position over time, other common causes of neck pain include:
- Automobile accident
- Stress
- Bad sleep posture
- Twisting of the neck or back
- Infections
- Inflammation and tumors
Non-specific pain often stops on its own or after a few stretches. Some instances of neck pain require the urgent attention of our chiropractor. Come in for an examination immediately if you are experiencing:
- Too much pain or stiffness of the neck
- Numbness or weakness in your arms or legs
- Sudden severe pain after an injury

Our ultimate goal is to increase the mobility of the neck by aligning and strengthening the neck.
Why Seek a Chiropractor?
