Neck pain isn’t just about “sleeping funny.” It can result from a range of everyday habits and injuries. Common causes include:
At our Kensington clinic, we take the time to investigate the underlying cause of your neck pain — not just treat the symptoms.
Chiropractors are trained to assess and treat disorders of the spine, including the cervical (neck) region. Our goal is to restore mobility, reduce inflammation, and help you return to pain-free movement.
Gentle adjustments to the neck can restore joint motion and reduce irritation in surrounding nerves. Contrary to popular myth, these are not forceful or dangerous when performed by a qualified chiropractor — they are precise, controlled, and often bring instant relief.
Neck pain is often accompanied by tight or overworked muscles in the shoulders and upper back. We use techniques such as trigger point therapy and myofascial release to reduce muscle tension and improve blood flow.
We prescribe exercises to improve neck movement, posture, and stability. These are customised to your lifestyle — whether you’re sitting at a desk, riding your bike, or chasing kids around.
Learning how to hold your head and shoulders during daily activities can make a huge difference in preventing neck pain. We’ll help you adjust your workstation, sleeping posture, and phone use habits.

If it’s appropriate, you may receive your first treatment on the same day. If further imaging (like X-rays) is needed, we’ll refer you to a trusted local provider.
