Neck pain is becoming increasingly common in Solihull, especially among those with desk-based jobs or busy, high-stress lifestyles.
Whether it’s a dull ache or sharp, persistent discomfort, neck pain can creep in slowly or strike suddenly — often triggered by poor posture, tension, or awkward movements. For some, it eases within a few days, but for others, it can become an ongoing issue that limits movement and affects day-to-day life.
We understand how frustrating and disruptive neck pain can be. Our approach goes beyond just easing the symptoms — we aim to understand what’s causing the problem. Through gentle, targeted chiropractic techniques, we help improve spinal function, release tight muscles, and support your body’s natural recovery process.
Unresolved neck pain can impact your sleep, energy, and ability to focus. Chiropractic care offers a hands-on, drug-free solution designed to restore balance, encourage healing, and help you move with confidence again.
If neck pain is holding you back, book a consultation and take the first step towards lasting relief.
Neck pain can show up in many ways — and it’s more than just a sore neck.
Symptoms of neck pain can range from a mild, nagging ache to sharp, stabbing discomfort. It’s often felt in the back of the neck, but the pain can also radiate to the shoulders, upper back, or even down the arms.
You might notice stiffness, making it difficult to turn your head or look up and down. Some people experience muscle tightness or spasms in the neck and shoulders, especially after long hours at a desk or behind the wheel. In certain cases, headaches may occur due to built-up tension in the neck muscles. If a nerve is irritated or compressed, it can also lead to numbness or tingling in the arms or hands.
Everyday activities — like working at a computer, driving, or even sleeping in the wrong position — can make neck pain worse. Tasks that once felt simple, such as checking your blind spot or lifting a bag, can quickly become uncomfortable.
Neck pain often develops from everyday habits that place strain on the spine and surrounding muscles. One of the most common culprits is poor posture — especially from long hours spent sitting at a desk, scrolling on your phone, or watching TV. When your head tilts forward or your shoulders round, it puts pressure on the muscles and joints in your neck.
Sleeping in an awkward position, such as with too many pillows or poor neck support, can also trigger discomfort. Sudden movements, like quickly turning your head, may lead to strain or irritation in the neck muscles.
Stress and tension are another major factor. When you’re under pressure, your body often holds that tension in the neck and shoulders, which can cause tightness and aching over time.
In other cases, neck pain can stem from injuries like whiplash, or longer-term conditions such as arthritis or disc-related problems, which may lead to ongoing pain, stiffness, or reduced mobility.
Getting the right diagnosis is the first step to feeling better. At our Solihull chiropractic clinics, we take the time to understand what’s causing your neck pain — not just where it hurts, but why it’s happening.
Your first visit includes a detailed consultation, where we’ll ask about your symptoms, lifestyle, posture, work habits, and any past injuries. From there, we carry out a comprehensive assessment, which may include:
If we feel that imaging (like X-rays or MRI scans) is needed for a clearer picture, we’ll refer you appropriately and explain every step.
Our goal is to get to the root of your pain, so we can create a plan that supports long-term relief — not just a temporary fix. Once we understand what’s going on, we’ll talk you through your results and discuss your personalised care options clearly and openly.
Your treatment plan is tailored to your needs, based on your history, lifestyle, and what we find during your assessment. Chiropractic care may include:
Our approach is drug-free and focused on long-term results, not just short-term relief. We also support your recovery with simple lifestyle changes you can implement at home, so you feel more in control of your health.
Patients often report improved mobility, better posture, and reduced discomfort as they progress through their personalised treatment plans, especially when care is consistent and supported with the right guidance.
