Neck Pain Treatment Process

How We Actually Fix Neck Pain

First, we listen. Not just to your symptoms, but to how this pain is affecting your daily life. Then we perform a thorough examination including spinal and postural screenings to identify exactly what’s causing your discomfort.

We don’t guess – we test. If needed, we’ll take X-rays right in our office so you can see what’s happening with your cervical spine. No waiting for results from another facility.

Once we know the root cause, Dr. Heath creates your personalized treatment plan. This typically includes gentle chiropractic adjustments to restore proper alignment, plus corrective exercises you can do at home. We might also recommend massage therapy to complement your healing.

You’ll understand exactly what we’re doing and why. Most patients start feeling relief quickly, but we focus on long-term healing, not just temporary fixes.

How quickly will I see results from chiropractic treatment for neck pain?

Many patients feel some relief after their first adjustment, but everyone’s timeline is different. Research shows that 57% of people experience at least 75% pain reduction within 12 weeks of starting chiropractic care.Your healing speed depends on how long you’ve had the problem, what caused it, and how well you follow through with home exercises. Acute neck pain from sleeping wrong might resolve in a few visits, while chronic issues from years of poor posture typically take longer.Dr. Heath will give you a realistic timeline during your initial consultation based on your specific situation. We focus on lasting results, not just temporary relief.
Chiropractic care has an excellent safety record with only 40 injuries per 100,000 patients treated. The risk of serious complications from neck adjustments is extremely low – about 1-3 incidents per million treatments.Dr. Heath has over 25 years of experience and uses gentle, controlled techniques. He’ll explain exactly what he’s doing before each adjustment and will never force anything that doesn’t feel right to you.Compare this to the risks of long-term pain medication use or neck surgery, and chiropractic care is significantly safer. That’s why major medical organizations now recommend trying chiropractic first before more invasive treatments.
Neck pain usually comes from misaligned vertebrae (subluxations), muscle tension, poor posture, or injuries like whiplash. Many Tallmadge Township residents develop “tech neck” from computer work or experience pain from stress and long commutes.Chiropractic adjustments restore proper alignment to your cervical spine, which reduces pressure on nerves and allows muscles to relax. This addresses the root cause instead of just masking symptoms with medication.We also identify lifestyle factors contributing to your pain – like your workstation setup or sleeping position – and give you tools to prevent the problem from returning. It’s a comprehensive approach that gets lasting results.
Not always, but X-rays help us see exactly what’s happening with your cervical spine structure. If you’ve had trauma, chronic pain, or certain symptoms, Dr. Heath might recommend X-rays to rule out serious conditions and create the most effective treatment plan.We have digital X-ray equipment right in our Tallmadge Township office, so there’s no delay in getting results. The images help us identify issues like reversed curves, disc degeneration, or old injuries that might be contributing to your current pain.Some patients are concerned about radiation exposure, but our digital system uses much less radiation than traditional X-rays. Dr. Heath only orders them when they’ll genuinely help your treatment.
Most insurance plans cover chiropractic care, including Medicare and many major carriers. Coverage varies by plan, but chiropractic is widely recognized as an effective treatment for neck pain and other musculoskeletal conditions.Our office staff will verify your benefits before you start treatment so you know exactly what to expect. We also offer affordable payment options and new patient specials to make care accessible.Many patients find that investing in chiropractic care actually saves money long-term by avoiding expensive medications, injections, or surgery. Research shows that chiropractic patients have 64% lower odds of needing opioid prescriptions.
Dr. Heath evaluates each person individually instead of using the same treatment for everyone. With over 25 years of experience, he uses different techniques based on what your specific condition needs, not just what he’s most comfortable with.You’re not treated like a number here. We take time to understand how your neck pain is affecting your daily life and create a personalized plan that fits your goals and lifestyle. Many patients tell us they feel heard and understood in ways they haven’t experienced elsewhere.We also focus on education and prevention. You’ll learn why you developed neck pain and how to keep it from coming back. Our goal is to get you better and keep you better, not create dependency on ongoing treatments.
