Neck pain can often be linked to lifestyle factors and temporary issues and is the second most common condition that people see a chiropractor for.
Common types of neck pain include:
- Muscle tightness and strain – muscle tightness is one of the main causes of neck pain. Our daily habits and work requirements such as prolonged sitting or slouching can cause our neck muscles to tighten over time. Our joints and muscles are designed to move so static positions aggravate them and can lead to neck issues.
- Joint pain – another common cause of neck pain is inflammation in the small joints in your neck (facet joints). Facet joint inflammation results in stiffness and pain especially during certain movements.
- Stress & tension – stress can be physical as well as emotional. When we are under stress, we can subconsciously tense our neck, shoulder muscles, and cause persistent tightness or soreness.
- Spondylosis or spondylitis – the medical word for ‘degeneration of the spine’ and is sometimes also called osteoarthritis of the neck. Many people over the age of 50 will have some degenerative changes in their neck and be able to carry out normal physical activity without getting any problems. The degeneration itself rarely causes pain, it is the associated stiffness and muscle pain which can respond well to chiropractic treatment.

Couldn’t tell if chiropractic treatment was suitable for my issue, from a lot of research online. This became a catch-22 as I needed help but was apprehensive about spending money on something ultimately unhelpful. Sarah was the only chiropractor in the area who took the time to respond to queries via email with honesty, and in the end kindly offered to meet and talk so I was better informed. While Sarah recommended a better-suited route of treatment for me, I am still leaving a review. Since it is such a privilege these days to come across someone honest and evidently highly experienced, who actually listens and takes concerns seriously.

I have been seeing Sarah for many years now (only every 3 months now for a top up)and I truly believe my lower back treatment has made a huge difference. I don’t even think about my back now whereas before I started seeing Sarah it felt like a constant struggle. I have my life back – thank you
Boz Cranfield
Very professional and extremely helpful. Worked wonders on my back. Highly recommended.

Sarah has got me and a dodgy knee through 2 marathon length charity walks pain free. She has a professional yet friendly approach talking you through the treatment plan and providing clear guidance on additional exercises to do between treatments. I have and do recommend her to anyone seeking a chiropractor.

Professional, friendly, highly skilled local practitioner with oodles of experience and tonnes of techniques to ease virtually any ache, pain or injury you can think of! Sarah always finds time to fit me in when I need help and has saved my neck and back from painful restrictions many times. She uses a variety of techniques to help too, highly recommend!

Janine Freed
Sarah was recommended to me when I moved to MK over 16 years ago. I’ve trusted her to look after my back ever since, which she’s done in a friendly and very professional manner. I’ve recommended her to a number of friends and family, who have also been very pleased, and wouldn’t hesitate to do so again. Thank you Sarah!
Carol Swann
Fantastic chiropractor – Sarah always sorts out my neck and back pain. I have referred other people to her who have been equally impressed with their treatments.
Annie
Excellent service. Gutted I moved a few hundred miles away, which is the only reason you will find to stop seeing Sarah. After she helped me recover from the worst of my sciatica, the less regular maintenance appointments helped stop a serious flare up. Any flare ups were down to me pushing my luck, more often than I should have. I never felt judged by Sarah. Even though it meant I saw her less she recommend pilates to help me improve my core strength and posture. If I get a big win on the lottery I’d consider bribing her to relocate. Having an excellent chiropractic in your local area us priceless.
Michelle Brigham
Highly recommended. Treatments are fantastic! Just as much as Ms Richards is

Over the last 15 years Sarah Richards has changed my life for the better. When I first started with back issues I struggled to do every day things and was in constant pain. Sarah identified the problem areas and treated them accordingly, this helped me to continue as a full time HGV driver. Excellent customer experience every time, my best investment in myself.
