Neck Pain Is Something That No One Wants

Neck Pain Is Something That No One Wants

By Clayton Thom Munhall


Living with neck pain is something no one would want anyone else to live with. It is hard to live with because it is an integral part of the body. Overcoming the discomfort is part of what one needs to do. Many ways are available to do this the approach one would take depends their needs. The head and shoulder area gets strained and may some help in getting better.

Since the head weighs about ten or twelve pounds, it must always stay back a few inches when walking, talking, typing on a computer keyboard and other activities. If one bends it forward a little bit, the neck will suffer. This is where the discomfort can start. Finding good posture is important so one does not get into this situation. If one has forward head posture of just a couple inches it can make the neck an upper back feel as though they are carrying about thirty pounds of weight on that area.

Many chiropractors in the United States work to the vertebrae into a proper alignment. This helps with functionality. Proper movement of the body is essential to one living a good quality life. Alternative medicine is aware of this.

Mind, body, and spirit are part of natural man. Alternative health care doctors focus on these aspects. There are advantages and disadvantages to both alternative and traditional medicine.

One-third of all Americans experiences this type of pain at some time in their lives. This problem needs to be addressed because of this reality. Thirty-three percent of symptoms were relieved with the medical route whereas fifty-seven percent were relieved with the manipulation of tissue. This also lasted twelve weeks which helped people on the long run.

This is much better for them short and long-term. The manipulation group was studied one year later and still showed signs of improvement. They had a seventy-five percent decrease in symptoms. This can be quite freeing for many people who live with this discomfort for many years.

One hundred and eighty three people were in a group that had their body manipulated by a professional. They did this instead of going to a doctor who prescribed medications and counseled them. This way of healing is the most beneficial, but it is not the most traditional or popular as many people still pick their medical doctor over an alternative doctor.

Having neck pain is very difficult to live with. It can almost be shocking to be free of it when you are so used to it. No one would want to live with discomfort like this. It is not pleasant so overcoming it as soon as possible would be the ultimate experience and goal.
