Torticollis

Do you have a painful neck spasm that developed overnight leaving your head turned and bent to one side? You may be suffering from Torticollis!

Acquired torticollis is seen in about 3 in 10,000 and more commonly in females. 90% of cases occur between the ages of 31-60. Common potential causes include muscle damage from inflammation as a result of a neck sprain/strain injury, disc herniation, spinal misalignment, and posture-induced activity such as long periods of time with a phone between the head and the shoulder.

Chiropractic, muscle stretching techniques, and physiotherapy are ways to treat Torticollis conservatively.
