Poulin Chiropractic of Herndon and Ashburn Helps Restore Limited Neck Range of Motion and Pain

What is the result of neck pain? It keeps you from moving your neck as you want. Pain is crazy that way! It keeps us from doing things that could hurt. Ok, that is not all bad! But neck pain can disturb more than just motion. It can disrupt daily living. Ashburn chiropractic at Poulin Chiropractic of Herndon and Ashburn can help ease neck pain and reestablish its normal motion.

NECK PAIN LIMITS MOTION

Not merely does neck pain limit cervical spine motion, it also necessitates compensatory motions to do what needs to be done. If the neck smarts when twisting to the right, you’ll not do that. That’s a compensatory motion. Normal flexion/extension, lateral, and rotational motions have been recorded in normal patients. (1) And if you think your ability to reposition your neck influences your life, think about baseball pitchers! College baseball pitchers with limited neck motion during preseason had higher risk of game time loss and shoulder and elbow disability throughout the season. (2) That is very life-altering for them and their life dreams! Know that your Ashburn chiropractor can know from a thorough clinical examination just how pain is affecting your normal range of motion and how to help you (whether you are a baseball player or not!) get it back.

NECK ISSUES INFLUENCE SLEEP APNEA

Another interesting cervical spine finding is that previous cervical spondylosis – degenerative changes in the cervical spine that often happen 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 connected to cervical spine changes that tighten the airway space that occur with cervical spondylosis. (3) Cervical spondylosis is another spinal issue your Ashburn chiropractor understands well.
