Common Causes of Neck Pain

Neck pain can stem from a variety of underlying issues including:

‍Postural problems like Forward Head Posture or Tech Neck

• Postural problems like Forward Head Posture or Tech Neck
• Sprains and strains
• Spinal misalignments (also known as subluxations)
• Intervertebral disc issues such as bulging or herniated discs including C4-C5, C5-C6 and C6-C7

If left uncorrected, these conditions can progress and cause more complex symptoms, including:

• Pain radiating into the shoulder or arm
• Tingling or numbness
• Headaches and jaw pain
• Weakness in the arm or hand

Why Biomechanics Matter in Neck Pain Treatment

Traditional medical approaches often begin with prescribing NSAIDs (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs). However, many patients prefer a natural, root-cause approach, especially those who may not tolerate NSAIDs well due to heart medications or other health considerations.

A key element in our treatment is restoring proper biomechanics before progressing to strengthening exercises. Healthy biomechanics include:

• Proper vertebral alignment
• Smooth joint mobility
• Uninterrupted nerve communication

Once these foundations are in place, the neck is better equipped for long-term healing and strength-building.

A Personalized, Advanced Approach with Crest Chiropractic in Orem

Our Orem chiropractor provides a personalized and natural approach to treating neck pain. We focus on correcting the root cause of your pain—not just masking symptoms.

At Crest Chiropractic, our techniques may include:

• Manual chiropractic adjustments
• Gentle low-force techniques for sensitive cases
• Other therapies including:
   
  • Shockwave therapy
   
  • Non-surgical spinal decompression
   
  • Myofascial cupping
   
  • Natural anti-inflammatory supplements

Most patients feel noticeable improvement after their first visit. In some cases, mild soreness may occur—similar to what you might experience after a workout.

What to Expect from Chiropractic Care

The length of your recovery depends on how long the issue has been present and your body’s overall health. After your initial consultation, Dr. Dustin Mattila will create a personalized care plan and clearly explain what to expect from your chiropractic treatment.

Patient Success Story

“I have had pain and stiffness around neck, shoulder and upper back for a couple of years and it is getting worse. I tried massage for several months and it didn't release me from pain and stiffness other than a temporary relax. My friend recommended Dr. Mattila to me, and I finally decided to give it a try. Dr. Mattila is very kind and professional. After the first evaluation he explained how my pain developed and how they could help me with a detailed treatment plan. I didn't expect this could improve so fast. In three weeks, the pain and stiffness around my neck, shoulder and upper back became less and less noticeable. It is such a relief because I thought the pain was something I would have to endure due to aging. Now I have more faith on this path. I am glad I came to see Dr. Mattila!”
