Hollstrom & Associates Inc Helps Restore Limited Neck Range of Motion and Pain

What is the result of neck pain? It keeps you from repositioning your neck as you want. Pain is crazy that way! It prevents us from doing things that could hurt. Ok, that’s not all bad! But neck pain can disturb more than just motion. It can alter daily living. Largo chiropractic at Hollstrom & Associates Inc can help ease neck pain and reestablish its normal motion.

NECK PAIN LIMITS MOTION

Not only does neck pain restrict cervical spine motion, it also requires compensatory motions to do what needs to be done. If the neck aches when twisting to the right, you will not do that. That’s 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 and shoulder and elbow disability during the season. (2) That is really life-altering for them and their life dreams! Know that your Largo chiropractor can tell 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 curious cervical spine discovery is that previous 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 tighten the airway space that come with cervical spondylosis. (3) Cervical spondylosis is another spine condition your Largo chiropractor know well.
