Neck pain is a common problem in our society.  People lead stressful lives here in America, and it seems that a lot of people carry this stress in their necks.  People often complain of having a 'stiff neck'.  Also, with the number cars that are on our streets, more auto accidents are happening all the time.  Whiplash, which is damage caused to the neck by a quick flailing of the head, is always a problem when a car gets into an accident.

The neck is a very complex area with many sensitive structures running through it.  It is critical that a correct diagnosis is made to determine which structures in the neck are causing the problem.  Chiropractic physicians spend years of training in studying how the cervical (neck) spine works and can be injured.  Once the nature of the injury is determined, there are a host of different treatments that can be used.  These treatments often include chiropractic manipulation, Active Release Technique, physical therapy modalities, and rehabilitation programs.
