Why does “cracking” your own neck never quite work? 🤔
You might feel the urge to self-adjust when your neck feels stiff or “stuck” – but often, it doesn’t bring lasting relief. In some cases, it can even make things feel worse.
That’s because the problem usually isn’t the joints you’re cracking – it’s the ones that are restricted and not moving at all.
When a joint is restricted, it loses some of its normal range of motion. This creates that familiar “stuck” feeling, and it’s exactly the area your body can’t self-adjust properly.
Chiropractors are specifically trained to detect which joints are truly restricted, not just the ones making noise. Instead of relying on random twisting or temporary relief, they use precise hands-on techniques and spinal assessments to identify areas that aren’t moving as they should.
Through targeted adjustments, they restore proper motion to these specific joints by reducing pressure on nerves, improving mobility, and preventing the rest of your spine from overcompensating.
✨ It’s not just about the “crack” – it’s about restoring healthy function, safely and effectively.
🔍 Feeling like your neck never fully releases, no matter how much you twist? That’s your sign to get assessed properly.
