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 repositioning your neck the way you want. Pain is crazy like that! It prevents us from doing things that could damage us. Ok, that is not all bad! But neck pain can bother more than just motion. It can alter daily living. Ashburn and Herndon chiropractic at Poulin Chiropractic of Herndon and Ashburn can help lessen neck pain and restore its normal motion.
NECK PAIN LIMITS MOTION
Not only does neck pain limit cervical spine motion, it also necessitates compensatory motions to do what must be done. If the neck aches when turning to the right, you will not do that. That is a compensatory motion. Normal flexion/extension, lateral, and rotational motions have been documented in normal patients. (1) And if you think your capabiloity to reposition your neck influences your life, consider baseball pitchers! College baseball pitchers with limited neck motion during preseason had increased risk of game time loss and shoulder and elbow disability throughout the season. (2) That’s very life-changing for them and their life dreams! Know that your Ashburn and Herndon 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 interesting cervical spine discovery is that previous cervical spondylosis – degenerative changes in the cervical spine that often come with aging, resulting in vertebral bone degeneration, disc degeneration, bone spur formation and the like - and obstructive sleep apnea are related. Such sleep apnea is connected to cervical spine changes that constrict the airway space such as happen with cervical spondylosis. (3) Cervical spondylosis is another spine condition your Ashburn and Herndon chiropractor know well.
