At Power Health Colorado, we treat a wide range of neck injuries using proven methods like chiropractic care, physical therapy, and rehabilitation. Our goal is to relieve your pain, restore function, and help prevent future problems so you can get back to living your life without limits.
Common Causes of Neck Pain
Neck pain can stem from a variety of issues, and identifying the cause is key to finding effective relief. At Power Health Colorado, we work with patients to understand what’s behind their discomfort so we can treat it at the source. Whether the pain developed suddenly after an accident or gradually over time, it’s often linked to one or more underlying conditions.
Strain and Tension
Daily activities can lead to muscle strain and tension in the neck. Whether it’s from overuse, stress, or sleeping in an awkward position, this type of pain often presents as soreness, stiffness, or a dull ache. Strained muscles can limit mobility and worsen if left untreated, but with proper care, like physical therapy, stretching, and manual treatments, relief is within reach.
Poor Posture and Spinal Misalignment
Spending hours hunched over a phone, computer, or steering wheel can lead to poor posture and spinal misalignment, both of which are major contributors to neck pain. Over time, this strain on the neck muscles and cervical spine can cause chronic discomfort, tension headaches, and reduced range of motion. Chiropractic adjustments can help realign the spine and relieve pressure on the neck.
Neck Injuries
Neck injuries, such as whiplash from auto accidents or trauma from falls, can damage muscles, ligaments, joints, and nerves. These injuries often lead to sharp pain, stiffness, and inflammation, sometimes with delayed symptoms. Prompt evaluation and targeted treatment are essential to prevent long-term complications.
Arthritis and Degenerative Disc Disease
Conditions like osteoarthritis and degenerative disc disease can affect the joints and discs in the cervical spine, leading to chronic neck pain. As these conditions progress, they can cause stiffness, reduced mobility, and inflammation that worsens over time. At Power Health Colorado, we offer therapies that manage pain, improve function, and slow the progression of these medical conditions.
Nerve Compression
Compressed nerves, often caused by herniated discs, bone spurs, or spinal misalignment, can result in sharp, radiating pain that extends from the neck into the shoulders, arms, or hands. This type of neck pain is often accompanied by numbness or weakness. Our team uses a combination of chiropractic care, physical therapy, and other modalities to relieve pressure on nerves and restore proper function.
Other Medical Conditions
Certain medical conditions, including infections, autoimmune disorders, and tumors, can also cause neck pain. While less common, these issues require thorough diagnosis and careful management.
Neck Injury Symptoms
Neck injuries can cause a wide range of symptoms, from mild discomfort to serious, life-disrupting pain. Recognizing the signs early is important for getting the right treatment and preventing further damage. At Power Health Colorado, we encourage patients to seek care if they notice persistent or worsening symptoms, especially after an accident or sudden movement.
Below are some of the most common symptoms of neck injuries:
- Neck stiffness or limited range of motion
- Sharp or aching pain in the neck, shoulders, or upper back
- Headaches, especially at the base of the skull
- Pain that worsens with movement or certain positions
- Numbness or tingling in the arms or hands
- Muscle spasms or tightness in the neck and shoulders
- Dizziness or balance issues
- Fatigue or difficulty concentrating (often associated with whiplash)
If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, our team is here to help you find answers and relief with a personalized treatment plan.
Common Neck Injuries
Neck injuries can range from mild to severe and often result from accidents, overuse, or sudden movements. These injuries can affect the muscles, ligaments, joints, or discs in the cervical spine and may cause pain, stiffness, headaches, or numbness that radiates into the shoulders and arms. At Power Health Colorado, we diagnose and treat a variety of neck injuries, helping patients recover safely and fully through personalized care.
Whiplash
Whiplash is a common neck injury that occurs when the head is suddenly jerked backward and then forward, often during a car accident. This rapid motion can strain or tear soft tissues in the neck, leading to pain, stiffness, headaches, dizziness, and even memory issues. At Power Health Colorado, we offer a comprehensive treatment approach to whiplash that may include chiropractic care, physical therapy, and rehabilitation to restore movement and reduce discomfort.
Neck Strain/Sprain
Neck strains and sprains occur when muscles or ligaments are overstretched or torn due to sudden movement, overuse, or poor posture. These injuries often result in soreness, limited range of motion, and tenderness in the neck and shoulders. With targeted therapies such as medical massage, therapeutic exercises, and spinal adjustments, we help relieve pain and promote healing so you can return to your daily routine.
Pinched Nerve
A pinched nerve in the neck happens when surrounding tissues, such as a herniated disc or bone spur, apply pressure to a nerve root. This can cause sharp pain, tingling, numbness, or weakness that travels from the neck down into the arms or hands. Our team uses precise diagnostics and individualized treatment plans to reduce nerve compression and restore function, using options like decompression therapy, physical therapy, and posture correction.
Herniated Disc
A herniated disc in the cervical spine occurs when the soft center of a spinal disc pushes out through a crack in the outer shell, irritating nearby nerves. This condition often leads to pain, muscle weakness, or radiating symptoms in the upper body. At Power Health Colorado, we provide non-surgical treatments, including regenerative medicine, chiropractic care, and rehabilitation, to relieve pressure on the affected disc and support long-term recovery.
Spinal Cord Injuries
Spinal cord injuries affecting the neck can be serious and life-changing, often impacting movement, sensation, and overall function. These injuries require specialized care to support recovery and help patients regain as much mobility and independence as possible.
At Power Health Colorado, we offer personalized physical therapy and neuro rehab services designed to improve strength, coordination, and nervous system function. Our experienced team works closely with each patient to create a comprehensive treatment plan that promotes healing, enhances daily functioning, and supports long-term quality of life.

Through guided exercises, stretching routines, and manual techniques, we help reduce pain, improve mobility, and prevent future injuries.

Rehabilitation
Rehabilitation is essential for patients recovering from neck injuries or surgery. Our rehab programs combine therapeutic exercises, functional training, and hands-on care to support healing and enhance daily movement. Whether you’re dealing with whiplash, a herniated disc, or nerve compression, our rehabilitation specialists help you rebuild strength and return to normal activity.
Pain Relief Injections
For more severe or persistent neck pain, pain relief injections can provide fast, targeted relief. These minimally invasive treatments deliver anti-inflammatory medication directly to the affected area, reducing pain and swelling while supporting the healing process. Injections are often used in combination with other therapies to maximize effectiveness and speed recovery.
Medical Massage
Medical massage targets muscle tension, inflammation, and restricted movement that often contribute to neck pain. Our licensed massage therapists use clinical techniques to relieve tightness, improve circulation, and support tissue healing. This therapy is especially beneficial when combined with chiropractic or physical therapy treatments.
Acupuncture
Acupuncture offers a natural and effective way to relieve neck pain, especially when caused by muscle tightness, stress, or nerve irritation. By stimulating specific points on the body, acupuncture helps reduce inflammation, improve circulation, and trigger the body’s healing response. Many patients experience pain relief, improved mobility, and reduced muscle tension after treatment.
Chiropractic Care
Chiropractic care is a highly effective treatment for many causes of neck pain, especially those related to spinal misalignment or joint dysfunction. Our skilled chiropractors use gentle, targeted adjustments to realign the cervical spine, reduce pressure on nerves, and restore proper motion. These treatments help improve posture, relieve stiffness, and support overall spinal health.
