The weight of the average head is 9-12 lbs. 7 small, moveable bones support this weight with help from the spinal muscles and spinal ligaments. Any sudden or jarring motion to the head will have a straining effect on the neck muscles which can cause the neck bones to subluxate or misalign. Once the vertebra are out of their normal joint position, neck pain and possible headaches is the result. Chiropractors correct the alignment of the cervical spine with chiropractic adjustments to the spinal joints, restoring proper alignment and joint motion. This allows the neck to heal and function normally.
