Neck pain affects far more than just your neck. It can disrupt your sleep, make it difficult to concentrate at work and limit simple things like turning your head to check for traffic. At Zest Chiropractic in Moseley, we provide personalised assessment and chiropractic care for people experiencing neck pain across Birmingham and the surrounding areas.
Neck pain often builds gradually over time, rather than arising from a single obvious injury. Our approach is to take time to understand your symptoms, identify what may be contributing to your discomfort and create a care plan tailored to you.
Prolonged sitting, slouching, or working at a poorly set-up desk places sustained strain on the neck and upper back. Over time, this can lead to muscle fatigue, tension, and joint stiffness.
Overuse of neck muscles — through repetitive movements, prolonged screen time, or sleeping in an awkward position — can lead to muscle tension and discomfort that builds up gradually.
Sudden or unexpected movements (such as those in a road traffic accident or sports injury) can strain the joints, muscles, and ligaments of the neck. This can result in both immediate and longer-lasting neck pain.
Conditions such as cervical spondylosis, disc changes, or osteoarthritis can contribute to neck stiffness and persistent discomfort. A thorough assessment can help to identify whether an underlying condition is playing a role.

Chiropractic care is generally considered safe when provided by a qualified, registered chiropractor. At Zest Chiropractic, your initial assessment will include a review of your health history to ensure that chiropractic care is appropriate for you. Lisa will always explain what treatment involves and answer any questions you have before we begin.
This varies from person to person and depends on the nature and duration of your symptoms, as well as your individual response to treatment. After your initial assessment, Lisa will give you an honest overview of what to expect and what we feel a realistic course of care looks like for you.
No — you can book directly with us without a referral. If Lisa finds anything during your assessment that she feels warrants further investigation or input from your GP, she will always let you know and will write to your doctor if required.
