Neck Pain Headaches

Did you know that the neck is very susceptible to stresses and strains from any source and is strained more than any other structure in the body. Why is this? Well keep in mind that the neck area of the spine is composed of seven small vertebrae and supported by muscles and ligaments which have to hold and balance a head, which on average, weighs about five Kilograms!

At My Local Chiro Clinic we can alleviate and relieve these symptoms in just one session. Contact us now or Phone us to make an appointment

Are you unusually susceptible to neck pain – No!  Not at all

On occasion every person including children will experience minor neck aches, pain, and stiffness. This condition is usually due to overuse or holding the head in an awkward position, general for an extended time. The good news is that situations such as these clear up on their own after a day of rest or a good night’s sleep. However, neck pain and stiffness that persists for more than a 24 hour period should have professional evaluation. Aside from pain and stiffness, several other complaints can be generated by problems in the cervical spine (aka: neck). These symptoms can include dizziness, headache, pain in the ears, face, and scalp; pain in the shoulder-arm-hand, and numbness/tingling in one or more of the fingers; all of which are some of the more common complaints which we have seen at our practice.

“I must accept I have an injury before I can have it treated”

Does this sound like you, “it’s just a twinge”, nothing that a few days rest wont fix”. How many excuses do we use before the problem gets worse – far too many. If this is you contact us now, to at least have a discussion

In this current age with even though we may not have been playing sport, just playing with the kids, or jogging lightly we can pick up a sports injury and require the services of a Sports Chiropractor. Yes, you don’t have to be playing at the elite level to pick up an injury. In fact, an elite athlete is far less prone to get a sports injury as they have been training and their muscles are attuned to what they are doing or about to do. Does this sound familiar, indeed, a little run around on a sunny afternoon kicking a ball about with a couple of mates or the family, and the next day, Oh that feels bad.

What do you do, simply try and ignore the injury? If you do that there is every chance that you will not heal correctly. This is the time to set an appointment with a Sports Chiropractor. Please call us now, we are centrally located in the Northern Beaches which is convenient to many suburbs, Brookvale, Manly, Dee Why, Curl Curl, Beacon Hill, Narraweena and Cromer to name several easily accessible to our practice at Brookvale.

Many people associate Chiropractic Services with the treatment of ‘back pain’ or skeletal problems only. However, Chiropractic care is an effective treatment method for various afflictions including back pain, dysfunction, tingling, numbness, sprains and strains, headaches, even asthma to list just a few.

The practice of chiropractic focuses on the relationship between your body’s structure consisting of Skeletal, Ligament and Muscle as well as your function which is controlled by your nervous system and how that relationship affects your overall preservation and restoration of health.

At My Local Chiro Clinic we focus on providing soft-tissue chiropractic treatment for clients on the Northern Beaches of Sydney. This involves the use of massage, exercise therapy and the selective use of adjustments.

Our Chiropractors are trained to diagnose, treat and manage injuries. Your chiropractor will use a range of diagnostic methods including skeletal imaging, observational and tactile assessments, and orthopedic and neurological evaluation to ensure an accurate diagnosis leading to effective treatment.

Where necessary we will co-manage with other health care providers, to ensure that you receive optimal treatment.

Benefits of treatments include:

• Soft tissue injury management
