Stop living with stiffness, headaches, and limited mobility. Our integrative approach addresses the ROOT CAUSE of your neck pain.
Neck pain can show up in many ways. If any of these sound familiar, we can help:
Difficulty turning your head or looking up and down
Tension headaches that start at the base of your skull
Pain that travels into your shoulders, arms, or upper back
Sudden, painful muscle tightening in your neck
If you're experiencing any of these symptoms, don't wait.

Your neck is a complex structure—7 vertebrae, dozens of muscles, and countless nerves all working together to support your head (which weighs 10-12 pounds!). When any part of this system is out of alignment or stressed, pain follows.
Common causes include: Poor posture (especially from desk work and phones), spinal misalignment, muscle imbalances, stress, and past injuries like whiplash.

The problem with medications: Pain pills only mask the symptoms—they don't fix the underlying cause. That's why the pain keeps coming back. Real relief requires addressing the structural and muscular issues causing your pain.
We don't just mask your pain—we find and fix the root cause using a multi-faceted approach.

— Dr. Matt Gianforte, DC
Chronic neck pain is usually caused by a combination of factors: spinal misalignment in the cervical vertebrae, muscle imbalances from poor posture (especially from desk work and phone use), stress, and sometimes old injuries. The key to relief is addressing ALL these factors—not just one.
Absolutely! Tension headaches that start at the base of your skull are often caused by neck problems. When the cervical spine is misaligned or muscles are tight, it can create pain that radiates up into your head. Treating the neck often eliminates these headaches completely.
Many patients notice improvement within the first few visits. However, lasting relief requires addressing the underlying structural issues, which takes time. During your evaluation, we'll give you a realistic timeline based on your specific condition. Most treatment plans run 6-12 weeks for optimal results.
Yes! We accept most major insurance including BCBS, United, Aetna, Cigna, Humana, and Medicare. We'll verify your coverage during your evaluation so you know exactly what to expect. We also offer flexible payment plans for any out-of-pocket costs.
Many patients come to us after trying other chiropractors without success. The difference is our integrative approach—we don't rely on just adjustments alone. By combining chiropractic care with physical therapy, trigger point injections, and massage, we can help patients who haven't found relief elsewhere. This multi-faceted approach addresses neck pain from all angles.
Don't let neck pain, stiffness, and headaches control your life another day. Find out if our integrative approach can help you.
