Neck & Cervical Spine Conditions We Treat
From everyday stiffness to disc injuries, Dr. Farmer treats the full range of cervical spine conditions with a diagnosis-first approach.
Your neck balances the weight of your head on seven small vertebrae, and modern life is hard on it. Hours at a desk, time on a phone, long commutes, and old injuries all load the cervical spine in ways it was never designed to handle.
At The Spine Works, Dr. Farmer starts every neck case with a thorough exam and on-site X-rays so treatment targets the actual source of your symptoms, not just the place that hurts. Using Chiropractic BioPhysics (CBP) techniques, care focuses on restoring proper cervical alignment and the natural curve of your neck.
Depending on your diagnosis, your plan may combine precise adjustments, cervical spinal decompression for disc-related cases, corrective exercises, and practical posture coaching you can use at work and at home.

Neck Conditions We Help With
These are the cervical spine complaints we see most often at our Nashville office. Several have full guides you can read before your visit.
Neck Pain
Persistent neck pain often traces to misalignment, joint dysfunction, or muscle tension. We identify the source on X-ray before treatment begins.
Learn More →Whiplash
The rapid back-and-forth motion of a collision strains the neck, and symptoms often show up days later. Early evaluation matters.
Learn More →Text Neck
Hours of looking down at a phone can add tremendous load to the cervical spine. Adjustments plus posture retraining help reverse the pattern.
Herniated or Bulging Cervical Disc
When disc material presses on a nerve, pain can spread beyond the neck. Cervical decompression gently unloads the injured disc.
Learn More →Pinched Nerve (Radiating Arm Pain)
Numbness, tingling, or pain running into the shoulder and arm usually points to nerve compression in the neck. We locate the level and treat it.
Cervical Arthritis
Age-related joint wear can leave the neck stiff and sore. Gentle mobility-focused care may ease stiffness and help you move more freely.
Cervical Spinal Stenosis
A narrowed spinal canal can put pressure on nerves in the neck. Decompression therapy is designed to create space and reduce that pressure.
Loss of Neck Curve (Forward Head Posture)
A flattened cervical curve changes how your whole spine carries load. CBP corrective care focuses on restoring it.
Neck & Cervical Spine FAQ
In many cases, yes. Restoring proper joint motion in the cervical spine can reduce stiffness and improve range of motion. Dr. Farmer examines and X-rays your neck first so care is matched to the actual cause.
Yes. Every new patient is evaluated with on-site X-rays before any adjustment. That is how we rule out conditions that need a different kind of care and choose the safest technique for your spine.
Radiating symptoms usually mean a nerve is being compressed, often in the neck. It is worth getting evaluated promptly, because early care may keep an irritated nerve from becoming a chronic problem.
