Neck & Shoulder Pain

What Does it Mean When I Have a Stiff Neck?

If you have difficulty bending or rotating your head from side to side, this could mean you have a stiff neck. A stiff neck is characterized by decreased range of motion and the feeling of tight muscles in your neck and shoulders. There are many reasons why you could be suffering from this condition including old injuries, poor posture, and your work activities.

Another association with a stiff neck is a headache or migraine. A stiff neck can interfere with sleep, concentration, and can be difficult to deal with. Rather than suffer from a stiff neck or associated health conditions, please call Crosstown Chiropractic. We look forward to treating your stiff neck!
