What is Text Neck Syndrome?

Text neck syndrome is a condition that is caused by looking down at electronic devices for extended periods. This can create pressure on the spine and cause the spine to misalign. As a result, a person may experience neck pain, headaches, and upper back pain. In severe cases, text neck syndrome can even lead to nerve damage.

How Does Pediatric Chiropractic Care Help?

Chiropractic care is an effective treatment for text neck syndrome. Pediatric chiropractors work to correct the misalignment of the spine caused by text neck syndrome. This can relieve pressure on the spine and alleviate pain. We can also provide guidance on how to correct your posture and avoid further strain on the spine.

Some of the techniques that we use to treat text neck syndrome include:

• Spinal manipulation: This technique involves using gentle pressure to manipulate the spine into its proper alignment.
• Postural correction: Our pediatric chiropractors can help you identify poor posture habits that may be contributing to your text neck syndrome. We will teach you how to correct these habits and maintain good posture.
• Exercise and stretching: We may recommend specific exercises and stretches that can improve your flexibility and range of motion.
