Neck pain is a pain in the neck for many people. Whiplash injury or disc herniation or disc degeneration may all in any combination or soley be the culprits. Chiropractic care at New Hampshire Spine and Sport is usually useful in relieving the neck pain and even correlated arm pain for Southern New Hampshire neck pain patients. Some of our patients find us prior to selecting surgery for relief or seek us out after a neck surgery that may not have relieved the pain as expected.
Now, these conditions of
whiplash,
disc herniation and
disc degeneration may not only produce
neck pain, but also influence your balance and your vision. Researchers studied these in patients. They found that cervical proprioception plays a key role in postural control, how you see affects how you move.

Nowadays, some choose to undergo Southern New Hampshire neck surgery for a neck pain condition called cervical spondylotic myelopathy. New Hampshire Spine and Sport sees many after such surgery, too. But researchers are exploring the optimal approaches for the best outcomes with neck surgery. They report that anterior (from the front of the neck) approaches work better it seems in younger neck pain patients who have less severe impairment and more focal pathology with cervical spondylotic myelopathy. But they also say that patients report good outcomes with anterior and posterior approaches as long as other factors are controlled. (2)
