The link below is to an article about the strain on your neck while texting or playing on your phone.  It shows that as much as 60 pounds of force is applied to your neck simply by looking down at your phone.  The easy solution is to hold your phone up higher so you are not in that position.  However, if you to start to develop neck pain there is no better treatment than chiropractic care.  Chiropractic corrects the problem that is causing the pain, rather than taking medications to cover up the pain.  Dr. Myers is currently accepting new patients.  You can call us at 269-381-2200 or follow us on Facebook and Twitter.
