Youโve stretched it, iced it, maybe even taken painkillersโbut your neck pain keeps coming back. ๐ฃ Thatโs because many treatments only cover the symptom. At Northwood Chiropractic Oxford, we specialise in Gonstead chiropractic careโa method designed to locate and correct spinal misalignments ๐งฉ that may be keeping you stuck in a cycle of pain. Relief starts when you target the cause. โ
๐ต๏ธโโ๏ธ The Real Reason Your Neck Still Hurts
Neck pain is incredibly common, but that doesnโt mean itโs normal. Whether it started after a poor nightโs sleep ๐, a long day at the desk ๐ป, or a minor accident ๐, the issue often runs deeper than tight muscles.
In many cases, persistent neck pain is caused by spinal misalignments. These interfere with nerve signals ๐, reduce mobility, and can lead to inflammation. Over time, even small misalignments can snowball into chronic discomfort, stiffness, and even headaches ๐คฏ.
๐ฉน Why Traditional Treatments Often Fall Short
Youโve probably tried heat packs, massages, or even painkillers ๐โand they may have helped... for a while. But if the structure of your spine is out of alignment, those fixes are just temporary band-aids. ๐ฉน
Itโs like painting over a crack in the wallโuntil you fix the foundation, the problem keeps coming back. ๐ฏ Thatโs where Gonstead chiropractic stands out.
๐ก How Gonstead Chiropractic Fixes the CauseโNot Just the Symptoms
At Northwood Chiropractic Oxford, we use the Gonstead Methodโa precise, scientific approach to chiropractic care. Hereโs what sets it apart:
๐ Thorough Evaluation โ We begin with a deep dive into your health: history, physical exams, and often X-rays to get a clear picture of your spine.
๐ฏ Targeted Adjustments โ No guesswork here. We use exact techniques to correct specific misalignments without random twisting or chasing the crack!
๐ Trackable Progress โ We measure your improvement and adjust your care plan as needed to help your body heal, not just cope.
