Text Neck

What Is Text Neck?

Text neck results from how people regularly use their phones and tablets. We often look down at our devices for too long, putting strain on our necks and leading to pain in this area. With text neck, that pain can become chronic if left untreated, so early chiropractic treatment is ideal for helping prevent it from becoming a more serious issue.

The primary symptom of text neck is a dull or sharp pain in the back and sides of your neck, although it can also cause headaches, shoulder pain, and even arm tingling. If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, it’s essential to seek help from our Idaho Falls chiropractor as soon as possible.

How Can Our Idaho Falls Chiropractor Help?

At Moss Chiropractic-Acupuncture, our team of chiropractors in Idaho Falls has the tools and knowledge necessary to treat text neck. We often recommend lifestyle changes for patients, such as avoiding looking down at their phones or tablets for too long. We also suggest taking regular breaks from device use and practicing better posture.

Our Idaho Falls chiropractor might recommend neck manipulation or massage therapy to release built-up tension in the neck area muscles for more severe cases. This therapy can help reduce pain and make it easier for patients to move their necks again. We may also suggest spinal decompression therapy, which can help relieve pressure on the spine and make it easier for patients.
