Neck & Spine

Your Neck and Spine. Our Specialty.

A complex and integrated system of bones, ligaments, nerves, muscles and tendons, your neck and spine comprise the frame that supports your entire body. In addition to protecting the spinal cord, your spine and neck provide strength and stability to all other body parts and enable you to move, lift, bend, turn, stretch and engage in a wide range of motions. Because of the neck and spines’ central role in empowering the body to move, any issue, small or large, can have a dramatic impact on the function and mobility of other parts of the body.
