What is Tech Neck?

Tech neck is a type of neck pain that's caused by looking down at your phone or other electronic devices for long periods. When you bend your neck for an extended period, it puts strain on the muscles and tendons in your neck. This can lead to pain, stiffness, and other symptoms. Tech neck is also known as text neck. It's a relatively new problem, but it's becoming more common as our use of technology increases.

The Symptoms of Tech Neck

The symptoms of tech neck depend on the severity of the condition. In some cases, people may only experience mild discomfort. However, in more severe cases, the pain can be constant and debilitating. The most common symptoms of tech neck include:

  • Reduced mobility around the neck area
  • Increased pain when moving your neck
  • Headaches
  • General pain and discomfort throughout the shoulders and upper back

Chiropractic Care for Tech Neck

Avoiding tech neck can be difficult, especially if you rely on your phone or computer for work. However, it's important to take steps to address the problem before it becomes worse. Chiropractic care is one of the most effective ways to treat tech neck. When you visit our chiropractor in Birmingham, we will conduct a thorough examination to determine the severity of your condition.

We may also take x-rays to get a better look at how the neck is positioned. From there, we will develop a treatment plan that's tailored to your needs. The plan may include chiropractic adjustments, massage therapy, and other forms of treatment.
