Neck Pain

Common Neck and Upper Back Pain

Neck and upper back pain are a very common reason for patients to come to our office.  People with office and computer jobs frequently have problems in the neck and upper back.  It seems to be the area that becomes tight and painful in high-stress environments.  It is important to see a qualified chiropractic physician as soon as these symptoms begin.  Prolonged upper back and neck stiffness can cause the joints of these areas to become inflamed and stiff.  When these joints become stiff enough to stop moving, degenerative changes (arthritis) can begin to set in.  The good news is that Dr. Olsen has a very high success rate in restoring function to these joints, and therefore reducing pain.
