Denver Neck Pain Health Center

When your neck hurts you don’t feel like moving, it’s terrible. You can’t do the activities you love because it hurts. Here is a testimonial from a man who is feeling much better, thanks to our care.

“When I started coming to see Dr. V, my neck and shoulder were stiff and progressively losing flexibility. To turn my neck was very painful. I drive for a living, so neck and shoulder flexibility is absolutely essential.

I’m a weekend sports warrior and play golf. I need strength and flexibility because they are the key to being competitive. Thanks to Dr. V, my recovery is on its way! -E. Gallegos

Sometimes our patients notice relief so quickly they wonder why they ever hesitated to receive care. If you’re wondering whether we can help you, you’ll never know unless you call (303) 394-CARE (2273).

At our center we create balance of the spine and nervous system. This allows the body to heal itself and stay well. Read this clinical case history of one of our many wellness oriented patients.

“I first met Dr. V. after I had been in a horrific car accident. I had only been to a chiropractor a couple of times, but they were not activator practitioners, so I always came out feeling worse. My roommate is the daughter of a chiropractor, so I decided to give it another chance because she assured me it would help. The day I first walked into Care Chiropractic, I could not raise my arms above my shoulders. I couldn’t move my head more than a very slight bit, I struggled to bend over to tie my shoes, and I could barely dress myself or move around without help.

Dr. V. got right to work. I saw him five days a week for a while, and after what seemed like no time at all, I began to be more mobile. I could bend a bit, move my head, and best of all tie my shoes. It was like a new lease on life. I continued to see Dr. V. four days a week, then three, and ultimately once a week. Each visit made me stronger, healthier, and better able to get around. That was almost seven years ago. I’ve continued to see Dr. V. once a week or every other week in order to stay fit, well adjusted, and feeling better than I have in my life. As an extra added bonus, I’ve been healthier in general as a result of chiropractic. Experiencing nothing more than perhaps one cold in the last seven years. Today I can easily bowl, horseback ride, work in my yard, garden, and generally do whatever I want thanks to Dr. V.”

Can neck problems be so old and so ingrained they cannot be resolved? Do necks get so arthritic and damaged there is no hope? We don’t believe so! Read this real world case history and decide for yourself.

I was in a car accident in 1985 that left me with a neck and left knee injury I thought was permanent. I started to have treatments three times a week and am still coming for care. Dr. V. has helped me considerably. I am glad to have come to him. He has helped a problem I thought I would have to live with.

Sometimes people have an accident that leaves their neck so stiff, they can’t look behind them or even see the blind spot while driving. This opens them to a second accident, compounding their already significant problems. Living this way is not acceptable. Read this clinical case history that reveals how our center is making a difference in the lives of whiplash victims.

“After a car accident, pain began in my neck and went down to the middle of my shoulder blades. I suffered from headaches every day, and slept only a few hours each night. The movement in my neck was so limited, I was afraid to drive because I couldn’t see around me while driving. I couldn’t turn my head in either direction to use the side view mirrors of my vehicle.

My treatments began immediately in December. Here it is March, and I have complete movement in my neck, I haven’t had a single headache and sleep throughout the night.

I never believed chiropractic adjustments would cure my pain, and help me move my head, but now I believe it’s the only medicine for me. Thank you Dr. V.!!” -Sandie W.

If you can move your neck you can see behind you, check the blind spot and be safe on the road. If your neck is stiff, you may be headed for another wreck.

Does your neck feel stiff in the morning? Are you suffering with clicking or popping in the neck? Do you have difficulty parking your car due to lack of suppleness in the spine? Don’t wait for another accident. Call (303) 394-CARE (2273). With proper care, you could feel great, and avoid another crash!

Shoulder problems have a tendency to become chronic (or long-term), if not cared for correctly and as soon as possible. They can limit movements and become sensitive to pressure while sleeping on the side.
Using a different approach and addressing the underlying cause of shoulder problems, our clinic has helped thousands with even the most difficult shoulder pain. Read this letter from yet another grateful patient from our center.

“About three years ago I hurt my left shoulder and elbow. I believe it occurred due to my 90 lb dog I had been field training. The dog bolted, and I was on the other end of a 25- foot chain. I could barely keep my shoes on when “Cocoa” ran out of leash. I’ve gone to other chiropractors and also spent a year going to an upper arm specialist. After thousands of dollars, cortisone injections etc., I still had my problem.
After just 2 months of treatment from Dr. Visentin my left arm no longer hurts me and I have full range of motion. Thanks Dr. V.” -Sonja D.

Will your results be like Sonja’s? You’ll never know unless you call. Waiting can be dangerous, and you may notice relief rather quickly, so call now. (303) 394-CARE (2273)

At the Denver Neck Pain Health Center, we have seen many links between the cervical spine, (neck) and other parts of the body. The Temporal Mandibular Joint, or TMJ, is just one of those areas. It is a small joint in the front of a person’s ear that connects the mandible to the skull. It is also the most active joint of the body. Through talking, chewing, swallowing, etc., the average human being moves the TMJ up to 2,000 times daily. In the past decade, research has accrued enough data to show a link between symptoms of TMJ Dysfunction (TMJD) and Cervical Spine Dysfunction (CSD). In other words, neck and jaw problems are related.

Approximately 35% of the American population is affected by TMJD. Pain medication and/or lifestyle changes have shown results in treating the symptoms, but the right chiropractic care can help eliminate them permanently.

Dr. Visentin D.C. uses gentle chiropractic to reduce the pain associated with TMJ, while also increasing the range of motion and mobility in the jaw and neck area. Specific gentle adjustments align the TMJ, and help patients suffering from TMJD.

This type of chiropractic care will also reduce the amount of grinding and/or clicking that TMJ patients experience when they open and close their mouths. Discomfort throughout the body is reduced as well. TMJD is the perfect example of what happens to a body out of balance and how chiropractic can effectively help.

There are several different causes of TMJD. It can be due to missing teeth that force the jaw out of position. Car accidents or any other accident can cause the jaw to be knocked out of place. Sleeping on the stomach or side, can cause the jaw to be displaced as well. Grinding teeth while sleeping however is the most common reason for TMJD.

Pain can start gradually and increase over several days or months. Pain may occur when opening and closing the mouth. The jaw will click, forcing the mandible to a side. Occasionally, just moving the head or neck can create stress on the joint. The constant pressure creates severe pain in the jaw and excessive strain on the muscles. If untreated. TMJD can lead to tinnitus, or ringing in the ears.

Dr. Visentin, D.C. and the Denver Neck Pain Health Center can reduce the discomfort a patient has around the jaw area, and help eliminate the head and ear aches that are commonly associated with TMJ problems. They can also eliminate the excessive strain and pressure over the muscles around the jaw and neck regions.

Care for TMJD has several variables, including the severity of the condition, medical history and if the patient has had previous chiropractic care. TMJD is often overlooked by physicians. If you are suffering from TMJD and live in the Denver area, schedule a FREE consultation with Dr. Visentin, D.C. He will perform a thorough assessment of the head and neck area and create a customized plan to address your condition. Call (303) 394-CARE (2273).

How Does This Happen?

Most frequently neck pain is brought on by injuries old and new. The neck is very complicated. Accidents, slips, jerks, and jolts can have an accumulative effect resulting in subluxation of the various vertebrae that hold the head up and allow it to move. Subluxation means bones out of place interfering with the nervous system.

What Can I do To Help Myself?

Using ice is usually a good idea when neck pain is severe, or the origin is recent. Never apply ice directly to the neck. Use a wet towel between the ice and the skin. Use ice up to twenty minutes, three times daily.

Later on, hot moist heat can be helpful, particularly in cases of old injuries or stiffness deep in the neck joints. Gentle movements of the neck may also be advised. Frequent breaks from computer work to stretch can also be helpful.

It’s Still Bothering Me, Now What?

Our care of the neck is very, very safe. Gentle alignments of the various neck bones offer great relief of many neck problems. Proper alignment can be obtained through the use of instruments that help re-align the vertebrae or neck bones. This adjustment can be made by hand as well.
