Back pain can range from short-term muscle strain to long-standing discomfort. Chiropractic care focuses on assessing spinal alignment, easing muscle tension, and improving mobility to support natural recovery. Treatment often includes gentle spinal adjustments combined with exercise guidance.
Mechanical Neck Pain (Including Whiplash)
Mechanical neck pain refers to stiffness, soreness, or restricted movement caused by poor posture, muscle strain, or joint dysfunction. Chiropractors aim to restore normal movement, reduce discomfort, and prevent recurrence through adjustments and targeted exercises.

Some migraines are linked to neck dysfunction or tension. Chiropractors may address spinal and muscular restrictions, improving posture and neck movement, which can reduce headache frequency.
