Neck pain may begin in any of the structures in the neck. These include muscles and nerves as well as spinal vertebrae and the cushioning disks in between. Neck pain may also come from regions near the neck, like the shoulder, jaw, head, and upper arms. Swiss DolorClast® method treatment may provide relief where other therapies have failed and should be considered as a viable non-surgical solution. Other options that may be combined are spinal manipulation and DTS for cervical disc problems as well as cervical stenosis.
Torticollis, or wry neck, is a condition in which the head is tilted toward one side (cervical Lateral flexion), and the chin is elevated and turned toward the opposite side (cervical extension). There may be vertebral misalignment and muscle spasm chiropractic adjustments and Swiss DolorClast® to relax muscle spasm work well to alleviate and resolve the pain.
The neck pain when a muscle goes into spasm, all the fibers within the core of a muscle contract simultaneously. This most commonly occurs when you suddenly move or overextend a tensed-up muscle that hasn't been properly prepared for the movement. Like intense workouts before proper warmups or unexpected sudden jerks with car accidents causing whiplash effects.
Gentle chiropractic adjustments to the spine and soft tissue manipulation, DTS and Swiss DolorClast® may be used in combination with heat and ice therapy to bring about relief.
Neck ache pain may begin in any of the structures in the neck. These include muscles and nerves as well as misaligned spinal vertebrae and the cushioning disks in between. Neck ache pain may also come from regions near the neck, like the shoulder, jaw, head, and upper arms. Isolating the cause and source of the pain and appropriate treatment should result in positive outcomes. Chiropractic spinal and soft tissue manipulation, DTS and Swiss DolorClast® may be used in combination with heat and ice therapy to bring about relief.
Tingling, numbness or weakness due to pinched nerves accompanies neck spasm. Pinched nerves occur when a nerve becomes compressed due to inflammation or misaligned vertebra as they exit the spine. Symptoms may include pain that affects the area around the nerve, weakness, numbness and a tingling sensation. X-ray or MRI may be useful in isolating the cause of the problem and suitable treatment can begin.
Left untreated, this problem may persist even with long term medication, resulting in deterioration of the nerve and chronic inflammation. Gradual weakness and atrophy of the muscles causing paralysis may occur if the condition remains unresolved. Gentle hiropractic spinal adjustments and soft tissue manipulation, DTS and Swiss DolorClast® may be used in combination with heat and ice therapy to bring about relief.
Trigger points are isolated focal points located in a taut band of skeletal muscle. When touched, these trigger point produce pain that may be felt in a location far from the actual point. Trigger point pain often accompanies chronic musculoskeletal disorders and for example migraine type headaches may result from Trigger Points in the muscles at the base of the skull.
Trigger points in the larger neck muscles, such as the tapezius, splenius and semispinalis, are a major cause of headaches. Swiss DolorClast® method treatment may provide relief where other therapies have failed and should be considered to alleviate chronic muscle thickening and shortening.

We had a fantastic experience with Dr Lily Leong at Back2Life clinic! She's patient, genuinely great with kids [and] my son's asthma has improved under her care. Highly recommend this clinic!

Dr Stakes cares more about your health and well-being than about making money. I knew he was a really trustworthy chiropractor because of what happened during my first few treatments with him.

I was suffering from shoulder pain for more than half a year and felt extremely frustrated and helpless. Dr Neil Stakes' treatment and advice helped me to heal the pain and gave me confidence that I could work towards living a pain-free lifestyle.

I was referred to Dr Stakes by a trusted friend. I shared with Dr Stakes why I finally came to see him and expressed my commitment to get well. And it was comforting and assuring when I hear him expressed his commitment to help me get well.

Dr Neil Stakes is amazing! Only a few sessions with him, my girl’s motor Tics reduced and after a few more sessions, her Tics is completely gone and she’s able to lead a happy typical life again. He’s really good with kids too, my 6 years old girl loves to visit him ????

I have been a patient of Back II Life since 2006 when I was pregnant with my last child. Dr Leong has been very crucial in helping my body deal with a challenging pregnancy, and then post labour, during and after cancer. Many underlying issues have resolved over time. I have less and less need for remedies as my health has slowly built up over the years with the help of Dr Leong, with only some basic maintenance needed. Back II LIfe truly helps people to get back their life!
