Why Your Neck Pain Isnโ€™t Going Away - And What You Can Do About It Today

Youโ€™ve stretched it, iced it, maybe even taken painkillersโ€”but your neck pain keeps coming back. ๐Ÿ˜ฃ Thatโ€™s because many treatments only cover the symptom. At Northwood Chiropractic Oxford, we specialise in Gonstead chiropractic careโ€”a method designed to locate and correct spinal misalignments ๐Ÿงฉ that may be keeping you stuck in a cycle of pain. Relief starts when you target the cause. โœ…


๐Ÿ•ต๏ธโ€โ™‚๏ธ The Real Reason Your Neck Still Hurts

Neck pain is incredibly common, but that doesnโ€™t mean itโ€™s normal. Whether it started after a poor nightโ€™s sleep ๐Ÿ›Œ, a long day at the desk ๐Ÿ’ป, or a minor accident ๐Ÿš—, the issue often runs deeper than tight muscles.

In many cases, persistent neck pain is caused by spinal misalignments. These interfere with nerve signals ๐Ÿ”Œ, reduce mobility, and can lead to inflammation. Over time, even small misalignments can snowball into chronic discomfort, stiffness, and even headaches ๐Ÿคฏ.


๐Ÿฉน Why Traditional Treatments Often Fall Short

Youโ€™ve probably tried heat packs, massages, or even painkillers ๐Ÿ’Šโ€”and 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. ๐Ÿฉน

Itโ€™s like painting over a crack in the wallโ€”until you fix the foundation, the problem keeps coming back. ๐ŸŽฏ Thatโ€™s where Gonstead chiropractic stands out.


๐Ÿ’ก How Gonstead Chiropractic Fixes the Causeโ€”Not Just the Symptoms

At Northwood Chiropractic Oxford, we use the Gonstead Methodโ€”a precise, scientific approach to chiropractic care. Hereโ€™s what sets it apart:

๐Ÿ” 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.
๐ŸŽฏ Targeted Adjustments โ€“ No guesswork here. We use exact techniques to correct specific misalignments without random twisting or chasing the crack!
๐Ÿ“ˆ Trackable Progress โ€“ We measure your improvement and adjust your care plan as needed to help your body heal, not just cope.

By realigning your spine ๐Ÿง, we help relieve nerve pressure, restore movement, and support your bodyโ€™s natural healingโ€”so youโ€™re not chasing symptoms anymore.
