Neck pain is one of the most common problems we see at Flow State Chiropractic. Whether it’s caused by poor posture, long hours at a desk, stress, or an old injury, neck pain can make everyday activities like working, sleeping, and even enjoying time with your family more difficult.
The good news is that chiropractic care — especially upper cervical chiropractic — can help address the root cause of your neck pain, not just the symptoms, so you can feel better and get back to doing what you love.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can chiropractic care help with chronic neck pain?
Yes. Upper cervical chiropractic focuses on correcting underlying misalignments of the atlas (C1) and axis (C2) vertebrae that place chronic tension on neck muscles and the brainstem.
Is upper cervical care safe?
Extremely safe. There is zero forceful twisting, cracking, or popping. We use gentle, precise positioning calculated down to millimeters.
How many visits will I need?
Every spine is unique. Many patients feel noticeable relief within 2 to 4 visits, while stabilizing chronic alignment may take several weeks.
Will my insurance cover chiropractic care?
We provide detailed superbills that you can submit to your insurance company for direct reimbursement under out-of-network benefits.
What makes upper cervical chiropractic different?
Instead of general manual popping across the entire spine, we focus exclusively on the craniocervical junction using objective thermographic scans.
