Neck Pain Statistics in Canada
Pain is a significant issue across the country. According to Statistics Canada, 16.7% of Canadians aged 15 and over lived with a pain-related disability in 2022. That is nearly 5 million people whose daily activities are limited by pain.
Locally, neck pain is often a result of sudden trauma, such as car accidents. In 2023, the City of Toronto reported 301 serious injuries resulting from traffic collisions. Whether your pain stems from a recent whiplash injury on the 427 or chronic tension from a sedentary job, the statistics show you are part of a growing number of Canadians seeking relief. The annual prevalence of neck pain is estimated to be as high as 48%, and clinical guidelines strongly recommend immediate, multimodal care to prevent acute issues from becoming chronic disabilities.

Treatments that Work for Your Neck Pain
We use evidence-based therapies proven to relieve pain and restore function. Here is how we help
-
Chiropractic Care
Dr. Kevin Cheyne and our team use precise spinal adjustments to normalize joint function. If your neck joints are stiff or "locked," chiropractic care helps restore mobility and reduce the muscle tension guarding those joints. This is often the first step in restoring proper movement.
-
Physiotherapy
Our physiotherapy services focus on strengthening the muscles that support your neck and head. We assess your posture and movement patterns to identify weaknesses. Through targeted exercises and manual therapy, we help you build resilience against future injuries.
-
Acupuncture
We use contemporary medical acupuncture to modulate pain signals and improve nervous system function. By targeting specific anatomical points, acupuncture increases blood flow and relaxes deep neck muscles that are difficult to reach with massage alone.
-
Massage Therapy
Muscle tension is a major contributor to neck pain. Our registered massage therapists use hands-on techniques to release tight muscles, improve circulation, and reduce stress. This prepares your body for deeper adjustments and exercise.
-
Therapeutic Yoga
Movement is medicine. Our therapeutic yoga specialist, Laura McClean, guides you through gentle poses that improve flexibility and core stability. This is excellent for chronic neck pain sufferers who need to improve their posture and body awareness safely.
-
Custom Orthotics
Believe it or not, your neck pain might start at your feet. Poor foot mechanics can cause a chain reaction of misalignment up your spine. We fit custom orthotics to correct these imbalances, providing a stable foundation that relieves pressure on your upper back and neck.
-
In-Home Therapy
If you are in severe pain or cannot travel, we come to you. We offer in-home chiropractic and physiotherapy services across Etobicoke and East Mississauga, ensuring you receive high-quality care in the comfort of your living room.
Common Neck Pain Conditions We Treat
Neck pain manifests in many ways. Here are some of the specific conditions we help our patients manage every day:
Whiplash: Common after car accidents, this involves strain to the soft tissues of the neck.
Cervical Radiculopathy: Pain that radiates from the neck down the arm, often caused by nerve irritation.
Mechanical Neck Pain: General stiffness and pain caused by joint dysfunction or muscle strain.
Cervicogenic Headaches: Headaches that originate from issues in the neck joints and muscles.
Postural Dysfunction: Often called "tech neck," caused by prolonged sitting or looking down at devices.
Spondylosis (Arthritis): Age-related wear and tear affecting the spinal disks in your neck.
Disc Herniation: When the soft cushion between vertebrae pushes out, causing pain or nerve compression.

What to Expect at Your First Visit
Walking into a new clinic can be intimidating, but we make it easy. We believe in transparency and keeping you informed every step of the way.
Thorough Assessment
Your first visit starts with a comprehensive evaluation. We review your health history and perform a physical exam to pinpoint the source of your pain. We also screen for any serious issues to ensure therapy is safe for you.
Personalized Treatment Plan
We do not believe in cookie-cutter solutions. Based on your assessment, we design a treatment plan tailored to your specific needs, lifestyle, and goals. We explain exactly what we are doing and why.
Active Treatment
Treatment often begins on day one. Depending on your plan, this may include manual therapy, acupuncture, or modalities like laser or ultrasound to manage inflammation. We focus on active recovery to get you moving quickly.
Education and Prevention
We want you to stay healthy long after you leave our clinic. We provide education on posture, ergonomics, and home exercises. This empowers you to manage your symptoms and prevent the pain from coming back.
