Experience true relief with Kosak Chiropractic & Acupuncture. Led by Dr. Kevin Kosak, we provide neck pain treatment in West Omaha to help restore your mobility and get back to living pain-free.

What Is Neck Pain & What Causes It?

Neck pain develops when structures in the cervical spine become injured or irritated. In most cases, neck pain is acute and can clear up on its own, but it can also be chronic and can lead to long-term dysfunction if left untreated.

Here are some reasons you might be feeling pain in your neck:

Poor posture & forward head position
Whiplash from accidents
Herniated cervical discs
Sports injuries
Remote work ergonomics

Signs & Symptoms of Neck Pain

Neck pain signs and symptoms vary depending on the underlying cause. If you notice or experience any of the following, early evaluation can help prevent complications:

Neck stiffness and reduced motion
Pain that radiates into shoulders and arms
Headaches originating from the base of the skull
Tingling or numbness in arms/hands
Jaw tightness or difficulty sleeping

FAQs

How do I know if my neck pain is serious?

If your neck pain limits proper functioning, causes numbness or weakness in the arms or hands, doesn’t improve after weeks of self-care, or radiates into your arms or legs, it's time to seek professional help.

Are chiropractic adjustments safe for neck pain?

Dr. Kosak at Kosak Chiropractic & Acupuncture is a licensed chiropractor with decades of experience treating musculoskeletal conditions, including neck pain. Rest assured that every technique he performs is safe, effective, and tailored to your needs.

Can acupuncture treat neck stiffness and headaches?

Research demonstrates that acupuncture is effective and safe for treating patients with headaches and neck pain. It can be a valuable adjunct treatment to chiropractic care, helping to reduce pain and tension.

How long until I see results from neck pain treatment?

Relief from neck pain treatment varies depending on the severity and cause of the pain. If you're experiencing mild to moderate pain, you may notice significant relief within the first month of treatment. However, pain from more chronic conditions may take several months. We may recommend maintenance care for injury prevention.

Will stretching worsen my injury?

Aggressive movements worsen neck injuries. However, gentle stretches and exercises done carefully can relieve pain. For guided exercises, consult with Dr. Kosak.

Does insurance cover neck pain treatment?

Our clinic accepts major insurance plans, but coverage may vary. We recommend calling your insurance provider to check for coverage before setting an appointment.

Can poor posture cause chronic neck pain?

Yes. Poor posture, whether due to prolonged sitting or improper ergonomics, strains the neck muscles and misaligns the spine. Combined with age-related wear and tear, this can lead to chronic neck pain.

What a great experience it has been being treated at Kosak Chiro! I was in a car accident and was feeling pretty crumby! Headache that wouldn’t quit, shoulder, neck back and knee pain. I’ve been going for just a few weeks and can already see that this is where I want to stay when this injury is healed. The progress has been amazing and the staff as a whole are just super folks. I am pretty picky about who I trust with my health. Certainly picked a winner here! Thank you Dr K, Heidi and Anita. You guys are amazing and I am so very grateful for you! - Judy C.

Dr. Kosak and his staff are amazing!! I travel 26 miles to see him. I could find a closer chiropractic service but he is worth the travel time. I would and do recommend Kosak Chiropractic service. - Kim C.

We've been seeing Dr. Kosak for almost 10 years and have trusted him with all of our adjustment needs.

The office staff has always been very friendly and welcoming. We highly recommend Dr. Kosak. - Samantha I.

Best chiropractor in town! Have had chronic back pain for years, but then I blew my back out after 2 days on crutches post knee surgery. Not only did they fix me up, but gave me stretches, and sleeping positions that have kept me in good shape for the last 6 years. Appointments aren't necessary, and with my rotating schedule that's a life saver. Clean, courteous, and friendly. - Cheryl S.
