Our Comprehensive Neck Pain Treatment Approach

Unlike approaches that only provide temporary relief, our M4 Program targets the underlying causes of your neck pain through four integrated pillars:
​
MANIPULATION (Chiropractic Care)
Precise cervical adjustments restore proper joint movement, reduce nerve irritation, and improve spinal alignment. Dr. Seay uses gentle techniques specifically designed for the delicate structures of the neck.
​
MOVEMENT (Functional Rehabilitation)
We identify and correct postural problems and movement patterns that contribute to neck pain. Through targeted exercises and ergonomic education, we help prevent future episodes.
​
MEDICINAL NUTRITION (Anti-Inflammatory Support)
Chronic inflammation often perpetuates neck pain. Our nutritional approach includes targeted supplementation to reduce inflammation and support tissue healing.
​
METABOLIC CONNECTION (Comprehensive Assessment)
Advanced testing helps identify underlying factors that may be contributing to your neck pain, such as inflammatory markers, food sensitivities, chronic infection, or nutritional deficiencies affecting muscle and nerve health.
