This guide aims to discuss the causes of neck pain and treatment options for neck pain in Langley.
Neck pain develops for many reasons, often involving joint restriction, muscle imbalance, or nerve irritation.
Common conditions we treat include:
Poor posture and desk strain
Tech neck and forward head posture
Muscle tension and stiffness
Whiplash injuries
Disc irritation or herniation
Pinched nerves
Headaches related to neck tension
Sports injuries
WorkSafeBC injuries
Motor vehicle accident injuries
If left untreated, neck pain can lead to headaches, shoulder pain, or arm numbness.
At Realign, treatment is collaborative. Depending on your condition, you may benefit from one or multiple therapies. We offer chiropractic, physiotherapy and massage therapy in Langley.
Chiropractic treatment for neck pain focuses on restoring spinal mobility and reducing joint restriction contributing to neck pain.
Treatment may include:

Physiotherapy neck pain treatment addresses muscle weakness, movement dysfunction, and long-term rehabilitation.
Your physiotherapy plan may include:
Physio is ideal for recurring or injury-related neck pain.
Registered massage therapy for neck pain helps reduce muscle tension and improve circulation.
Massage therapy can help with:
Muscle tightness
Stress-related tension
Reduced mobility
Recovery support between treatments
Massage works best when combined with corrective care.
Neck pain is often connected with other symptoms, including:

Whiplash is one of the most common causes of neck pain following a motor vehicle accident. The sudden forward and backward movement of the head places stress on the muscles, joints, and ligaments of the neck, often leading to pain, stiffness, headaches, and reduced mobility.
Symptoms may appear immediately or develop several days after an accident.
Common whiplash symptoms include:
Neck stiffness and pain
Headaches starting at the base of the skull
Shoulder or upper back tension
Limited range of motion
Dizziness or fatigue
Arm pain or tingling sensations
At Realign Chiro Physio & Rehab, treatment focuses on restoring normal movement and supporting safe recovery through:
Chiropractic care to improve joint mobility
Physiotherapy treatment to help with whiplash related pain
Kinesiology to help rebuild strength
Early assessment and treatment can help prevent long-term discomfort and chronic neck problems.
If you have an approved ICBC claim, treatment sessions may be available.
Neck pain is a common issue following workplace injuries and repetitive strain. Tasks such as prolonged computer work, lifting, physical labour, or sudden incidents at work can place stress on the muscles and joints of the neck, leading to stiffness, reduced mobility, and ongoing discomfort.
At Realign Chiro Physio & Rehab, we provide coordinated rehabilitation to support recovery from WorkSafeBC-related neck injuries, focusing on restoring movement, reducing pain, and helping patients safely return to daily activities.
Common workplace causes of neck pain include:
Prolonged desk or computer posture
Repetitive movements and overuse
Lifting or physical job demands
Poor ergonomic setup
Sudden strains or workplace incidents
Treatment may include a combination of:
Physiotherapy treatment and exercises to restore strength and function
Postural and ergonomic education
Progressive rehabilitation focused on safe return to work
Early assessment and guided treatment can help prevent persistent symptoms and support long-term recovery.
Neck pain often develops when certain muscles become tight, overworked, or weakened due to poor posture, stress, or injury. Modern activities such as computer work and phone use commonly place extra strain on the muscles that support the head and neck.
The most commonly affected muscles include:
Upper trapezius – often tight with shoulder and neck tension
Levator scapulae – contributes to stiffness when turning the head
Sternocleidomastoid (SCM) – associated with headaches and front-neck discomfort
Scalene muscles – may contribute to neck tightness and arm symptoms
Deep neck flexors – weakened with forward head posture
Gentle stretching and movement can help reduce stiffness and improve mobility when performed correctly.
Helpful stretches may include:
Upper trapezius stretch: Gently tilt your head toward one shoulder while keeping shoulders relaxed.
Levator scapula stretch: Turn your head slightly downward toward your armpit and hold lightly.
Chest opening stretch: Stand tall and open the chest to counter forward posture.
Chin tucks: Draw the chin backward to strengthen deep neck stabilizing muscles.
Stretches should be performed slowly and without pain. A professional assessment can help determine which muscles require stretching versus strengthening for safe and effective recovery.
Our team provides personalized exercise guidance as part of comprehensive neck pain treatment.
If neck pain is limiting your daily life, early treatment can prevent long-term problems.

If pain lasts longer than a few days, limits movement, or causes headaches or arm symptoms, an assessment is recommended.
Yes. Our chiropractors use controlled, evidence-based techniques tailored to your comfort and condition.
Both treatments address different aspects of recovery. Chiropractic helps with joint restrictions and difficulty with movement and physiotherapy helps neck pain through active and manual therapy. Many patients benefit from a combined approach.
Massage reduces muscle tension but works best alongside corrective treatment like physiotherapy or chiropractic care.
Realign also offers pelvic floor physiotherapy as well as custom orthotics.
This depends on the cause and severity of your condition. Most patients notice improvement within the first few visits.
