What a Niggle Can Cause!

Do you or have you ever suffered with neck pain? There is some amazing research to show you may have this!!
When the spine is injured or simply not moving properly the brain changes. Over time mild spinal dysfunction (coming and going pain) leads to:

• People being less aware of where their joints are in space
• Neck muscles fatiguing faster, ie tired heavy neck
• People learning motor movements slower (worse muscle output)
• Changing ability to mentally rotate objects in space. Brain is not as accurately aware of what is going on in space.
• Not being able to interpret sound and visual information as well as others. Brains are less accurately aware of their bodies and do not process information as accurately, and cannot identify objects in space as accurately. This is what the latest research is showing!

Think about the implications of where these things are important in life. Sport, movements, energy in your day, concentration, driving. The list is endless.
Therefor it is paramount to get your neck checked if you have mild dysfunction. A niggle is worth getting checked to ensure your brain is properly aware of your body in space.
