Is Neck Pain Taking Over Your Life?
Neck pain is more than just a nuisance—it can interfere with your focus at work, keep you awake at night, and affect your overall quality of life. Whether it started from poor posture, an old injury, or stress, the discomfort can quickly spiral into chronic issues if left unaddressed.
At Northwood Chiropractic Oxford, we understand how disruptive neck pain can be. That’s why we use the Gonstead chiropractic method—a precise, hands-on technique designed to identify and correct spinal misalignments with pinpoint accuracy. Our goal? To provide long-lasting relief by addressing the true source of your pain.
What Makes Gonstead Chiropractic Different?
Not all chiropractic methods are created equal. The Gonstead System stands out for its thorough analysis and focus on structural correction. Before any adjustment is made, we perform a detailed assessment using:
- Palpation to detect inflammation and abnormal motion
- Instrumentation to identify areas of nerve interference
- Visual inspection of posture and movement patterns
- X-rays (when needed) to evaluate spinal structure and alignment
This multi-step process ensures that every adjustment is specific and effective—no guesswork, no “one-size-fits-all” approach.
Why Neck Pain Happens—and How We address It
Your neck, or cervical spine, supports the weight of your head and allows for a wide range of motion. But it’s also vulnerable to strain from:
- Prolonged screen use or poor posture (“tech neck”)
- Stress and muscle tension
- Trauma such as whiplash or previous injuries
This commonly leads to a spinal misalignment. When vertebrae in the neck shift out of place, they can irritate nearby nerves and cause pain, stiffness, or even headaches. The Gonstead method works by gently and accurately realigning these vertebrae, relieving pressure on the nervous system and restoring normal motion.
