Novelli Wellness Center Helps Restore Limited Neck Range of Motion and Pain

What is the result of neck pain? It keeps you from moving your neck the way you want. Pain is effective like that! It prevents us from doing things that could hurt. Ok, that’s not all bad! But neck pain can bother more than just motion. It can disrupt daily living. Orchard Park, NY chiropractic at Novelli Wellness Center can help lessen neck pain and restore its normal motion.

NECK PAIN LIMITS MOTION

Not merely does neck pain restrict cervical spine motion, it also necessitates compensatory motions to do what needs to be done. If the neck aches when turning to the left, you won’t do that. That’s a compensatory motion. Normal flexion/extension, lateral, and rotational motions have been documented in normal patients. (1) And if you think your ability to reposition your neck alters your life, consider 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 really life-changing for them and their life dreams! Know that your Orchard Park, NY chiropractor can know from a thorough clinical examination just how pain is affecting your normal range of motion and how to help you (your being a baseball player or not!) get it back.

NECK ISSUES INFLUENCE SLEEP APNEA

Another interesting cervical spine finding is that preceding cervical spondylosis – degenerative changes in the cervical spine that often happen with aging, resulting in vertebral bone degeneration, disc degeneration, bone spur formation and the like - and obstructive sleep apnea are related. Such sleep apnea is linked to cervical spine changes that constrict the airway space such as occur with cervical spondylosis. (3) Cervical spondylosis is another spinal issue your Orchard Park, NY chiropractor know well.
