Neck Pain & Cervical Radiculopathy

Neck pain, stiffness, or a pinched nerve sending pain into the shoulder and arm.

Understanding it

Neck pain can arise from facet joints, discs, nerve roots, or the muscles that guard them — and each responds to different treatment. Cervical radiculopathy (a pinched nerve in the neck) often causes more arm pain than neck pain. Precise, image-guided treatment of the right structure is what restores motion and function.

When to seek care

Persistent neck pain beyond a few weeks, pain radiating below the shoulder, or any arm weakness deserves a focused evaluation.
