In this digital age, it is a common sight to see people of all ages hunched over their digital devices. Technology has indeed helped us in many ways, but on the downside it has also led to the rise of lifestyle disorders. Text Neck is an example of a neck condition causes by bending over the phone for long periods of time. Younger generations that use digital devices continuously are more prone to this, however these days we can also see adults suffering from text neck.

When the neck is aligned normally, the spine is in a smooth, soft ‘S’ shape. An individual who leans forward too often will give a hunched-over appearance. Similarly leaning behind for too long gives a scrunched look. Symptoms of excessive strain on the spine may include radiating pain, muscular weakness and headache.

Tung style Acupuncture is very effective in all types of Neck pain. Avoid pain killers and use Acupuncture for complete recovery.

Case studies :

A 37-year old man woke up with horrible neck pain. He had slept wrong. The pain is bilateral at C 2-5, and on the lateral side of the neck on the cervical vertebrae. It hurts to flex, rotate, and extend his neck. He is having a hard time driving and turning his neck. He was given tung style acupuncture treatment thrice a week for 4 weeks and then twice a week for 4 weeks and then once a week for 4 weeks for his neck pain. He had a 95% reduction in pain while on the treatment table. He was able to turn his head, flex, and rotate his head with no pain. He still had pain when he extended his head backwards slightly, but he was happy that he could now turn his head without experiencing any pain.

A 32 years old man had pain in the neck which radiates to the arms and the shoulders. An X-ray of his cervical spine showed a slipped disc at the level of C5-C6. He was so used to the neck collar, that he was unable to support his neck without it. Acupuncture treatment was given to him, initially thrice a week and then twice a week and then once a week. After 10 acupuncture treatment sessions he got complete relief.

A 27 years old male suffered from acute pain in the neck, which was perpetually stiff. He had tried hot fomentation and pain killers to no avail. He also got complete relief with Acupuncture treatment after giving him 5 acupuncture treatment sessions.
