Shoreline Medical Services/ Hutter Chiropractic Office 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 effective like that! It prevents us from doing things that could damage us. Ok, that’s not all bad! But neck pain can bother more than just motion. It can disrupt daily living. Groton chiropractic at Shoreline Medical Services/ Hutter Chiropractic Office can help reduce neck pain and reestablish its normal motion.

NECK PAIN LIMITS MOTION

Not merely does neck pain limit cervical spine motion, it also requires compensatory motions to do what must be done. If the neck hurts when twisting to the left, you won’t do that. That is a compensatory motion. Normal flexion/extension, lateral, and rotational motions have been noted in normal patients. (1) And if you think your capabiloity to reposition your neck alters your life, think about baseball pitchers! College baseball pitchers with limited neck motion during preseason had increased 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 Groton chiropractor can know from a thorough clinical examination just what pain is doing to 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 discovery is that preceding cervical spondylosis – degenerative changes in the cervical spine that often appear 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 linked to cervical spine changes that constrict the airway space that come with cervical spondylosis. (3) Cervical spondylosis is another spine condition your Groton chiropractor know well.
