If you need neck pain treatment in Germantown, WI, the first step is to learn what kind of neck pain you have. It is often a stiff joint, a strained muscle, or a pinched nerve. It can also follow a whiplash injury. At Yentz Family Chiropractic we find out which one it is before we treat it.
We check how far your neck moves, which movements hurt, and whether a nerve is involved. Care may include gentle adjustments, soft tissue work, and simple exercises you can do at home. See our neck pain service page for more.
A pinched nerve in the neck can cause pain, tingling, or numbness down the arm. If a neck disc is pressing on a nerve, we may suggest cervical spinal decompression on our DOC table. Read more on our spinal decompression page or our page on herniated disc treatment in Germantown.
Raise your screen so the top is near eye level. Take a short break every half hour to stand and move. Keep your phone up near eye level instead of looking down at your lap. These small changes will not fix every neck, but they take strain off it between visits.
A stiff neck and a headache often come as a pair. If yours do, see migraine and headache care in Germantown. If the pain also reaches into your shoulder, tell us. We check the neck, upper back, and shoulder together.
If you were in a crash, tell us at your first visit. Go to the emergency room instead if you have severe pain, loss of feeling, weakness in an arm or leg, or trouble walking.
We start by asking how the pain began and what makes it better or worse. Then we check your neck, shoulders, and upper back, and test strength and feeling in your arms. If we find a stiff joint, adjustments are usually quick and gentle. We tell you what we plan to do before each step, and you can ask us to stop at any time.

It depends on the cause. Gentle movement, better posture, and a good exam help most people. If your neck has been stiff for more than a few days, come in and we will check it.
Hours of looking down or forward strain the neck and upper back. Posture changes and regular movement breaks help, and we can show you how.
Yes. A pinched nerve in the neck can cause pain, tingling, or numbness down the arm. Let us know if you have it.
