Frequently Asked Questions

 

Can posture cause neck pain?

Posture may contribute, but it is rarely the only factor. Movement habits, workload, strength, sleep, and injury history may also matter.

 

Are neck adjustments safe?

Treatment selection should follow appropriate screening. Lower-force techniques may be used when manual adjustment is not suitable.

 

Can neck pain cause headaches?

Certain headaches may be associated with cervical joints or muscles, but headaches can have many causes.
