Neck Pain Relief in Calgary
Neck discomfort is a common complaint that may result from long hours at the computer, a stiff pillow, sudden injuries, or stress that builds up in the body. Memorial Drive Chiropractic and Massage offers natural approaches that aim to support spinal health and comfort.
Common Causes of Neck Pain
Your cervical spine supports the weight of your head every day, so when something isn’t moving quite right, even activities like checking your phone or driving may become uncomfortable. Some of the causes we often see include:
- Muscle strain from posture, desk work, or device use
- Whiplash from auto accidents or sports injuries
- Spinal misalignments or disc issues
- Stress-related muscle tightness
- Wear-and-tear changes in the joints or discs
Neck pain can present as stiffness, limited range of motion, tension headaches, or radiating discomfort into the shoulders and arms.
What to Expect at Your First Visit
Your first visit with Dr. Wagemakers is designed to get to the root of your neck pain. We begin with a review of your health history, posture analysis, range of motion and strength testing, and gait or movement analysis.
We use INSiGHT™ scans to provide additional information about your spine and nervous system. These non-invasive scans may help guide care recommendations.
How Chiropractic Care Works to Help Your Pain
Once we’ve completed your assessment, we’ll create a customized plan that may include gentle chiropractic adjustments, guided stretches, and lifestyle recommendations. Adjustments are designed to improve spinal alignment, which may help reduce pressure on nerves and ease muscle tension.
Sessions typically last about 15-20 minutes and are tailored to your comfort level. Care plans vary depending on your needs. People may start with more frequent visits, then reduce them over time.
Some patients report changes within a few visits, such as reduced stiffness or easier movement. Results may vary.
If you’re experiencing severe or unusual symptoms, our doctor will guide you on whether additional medical evaluation is appropriate.
