Denver Neck Pain Health Center

If your neck has hurt so long you decided “you’ll just have to live with it”, don’t give up! You haven’t tried everything yet. Read this important real world testimonial.

“I have tolerated or suffered neck pain and tingling in my shoulders and aching in my upper back for several years. In fact, I had about decided it was just going to be something I would have to put up with for the rest of my life. Then my sister introduced me to Dr. V. I have noticed a considerable improvement already and I’ve only had a few treatments. I know that after Dr. V.’s recommended schedule of adjustments, I can live the next expected 40 or so years of my life, free of neck pain. Relief without surgery!
The adjustments are done gently and quickly with no pain or sudden twisting, and just 5 or 10 minutes on the wonderful massage table makes me feel completely relaxed and free of pain. Thank you, Dr. V.” – Dorothy F.

As a doctor, I sometimes wonder why people live with neck pain. The techniques I use are so effective, it makes all their suffering seem pointless. Read this testimonial by one of our many enthusiastic patients.

“Before adjustments by Dr. Visentin I was constantly bothered by problems in my upper neck. Eventually I could not stand perfectly straight and was in constant pain. After just one adjustment by Dr. V. I was instantly transformed into a 100% pain free human!! I stand straight up now, pain free, comfortable, and I enjoy doing all the things I used to do! I can’t thank Dr. V. and his great staff enough! Thanks, thanks, thanks. -Ted P.

Why would a cervical collar be harmful, don’t they help neck pain? Aren’t people supposed to wear them after accidents? What can happen if we wear them too much?

Neck supports offer comfort after injuries but can cause a great deal of damage, especially if they are worn excessively. Neck braces lead to bone loss or osteoporosis. They cause muscle wasting or weakness, and even lead to psychological dependency.

The human body is an amazing machine, and even knows when we use supports. The body senses less mechanical stress in areas that are being supported. When it does, it removes calcium from the bones because it assumes less is needed to hold the head up. The muscles around the spine become weaker as they are used less. Finally, people get habituated to the false sense of comfort collars offer. They sometimes wear them longer than they should and become dependant on them physically and mentally.

Cervical collars are beneficial when prescribed and used correctly. Wearing a neck brace for a few days immediately after an accident can be helpful in reducing pain and allowing for healing. As the tissues become stronger and heal, it’s important that they are used less frequently.

They should never be worn to sleep, as a high quality cervical pillow (a pillow with a special curve for the neck), is much more beneficial while resting.

Hard cervical collars are useful in cases of neck fractures (broken bones). As the neck heals or, when they’ve served their purpose, even hard collars should be used less and less. Eventually, they too should be discarded.

If you see someone wearing a cervical collar, ask them about it. Often times they can get great relief with gentle chiropractic care. Gentle movement to the joints of the neck after accidents in particular, facilitate complete healing. Chiropractic is a safe effective way to create movements that let the body mend itself with little or no painful scar tissue. Without chiropractic, the spine heals poorly and is subject to pain and arthritis.

Many times people come to us after they’ve been everywhere else. They’re surprised how gentle our care is. Often times we see some real miracles with the most resistant cases, read this testimonial carefully;

Twenty years ago I visited a chiropractor and he left me in so much pain that I cried for days. So, when I developed the neck and shoulder pain with migraines a year and a half ago, chiropractic care was not even an option. I had tried everything short of opioids. A friend of mine referred me to Dr. V. and by this time I was desperate. By the first adjustment I felt better and I finally had hope. My son always rubs my back for me and he said he could feel the difference in my back. He said it was smooth and not all knotted up anymore. I’m not completely healed yet and I know it will take time, but I know I am finally on my way to a full recovery!

For neck pain that feels sharp, shooting, hot, piercing, electric or severe, try using ice. Use ice 5-20 minutes three times a day. Never place ice directly on the skin. Use a wet towel between the ice and the skin, especially with sensitive skin.
