Neck pain has become an increasingly prevalent issue in the United States, affecting millions of people each year. Whether due to prolonged screen time, poor posture, or physically demanding jobs, neck pain is now one of the most common musculoskeletal complaints.

According to research published in the National Library of Medicine, nearly 30% to 50% of adults experience neck pain at some point each year, with many developing chronic issues. The economic burden is also significant, with healthcare costs, lost productivity, and disability claims related to neck pain totaling billions of dollars annually.
