Neck pain is one of the most common physical complaints among adults, often linked to modern lifestyle habits such as extended computer use, device time, long commutes, or sleep position challenges. At ReliefNow Laser Charleston, Dr. Lee Russo regularly meets individuals who are looking for simple, non-invasive ways to ease day-to-day neck tension and regain comfortable mobility.
“Neck pain can affect anyone—students, office workers, athletes, parents, and retirees,” said Dr. Russo. “What surprises many people is how much posture and daily habits contribute to the problem. Most individuals come in because they’re tired of feeling stiff or limited.”
Why some people ask about Class IV laser therapy for neck discomfort
Neck pain can be frustrating because it often builds slowly before becoming disruptive. That’s one reason many people explore options that fit easily into their schedule.
“Class IV laser therapy is a non-invasive light-based approach used to support comfort in irritated soft tissues,” Dr. Russo explained. “It does not fix the underlying condition, but some people say it helps them move with less discomfort.”
The sessions are typically described as warm, gentle, and relaxing. Because there is no downtime, most individuals return to work or regular activity immediately after.
Common causes of neck pain today
According to Dr. Russo, the most frequent contributors include:
-
Forward-head posture from screens
-
Muscle strain due to poor ergonomics
-
Stress-related tension
-
Sleeping position issues
-
Old injuries or “tweaks” that never fully resolved
-
Reduced mobility from inactivity
Dr. Russo notes that even small posture imbalances can place significant strain on the neck over time.
“When posture shifts forward, the neck muscles work overtime,” he said. “People often don’t realize how much their daily habits influence the way their neck feels.”
A comprehensive approach to supporting neck comfort
With over 24 years of experience—including a decade collaborating with medical doctors, pain specialists, and therapists—Dr. Russo integrates chiropractic adjustments, rehabilitative protocols, and posture-focused methods based on Chiropractic BioPhysics® (CBP).
“Supporting proper alignment can make everyday movement feel easier,” he said. “When the spine and muscles work together the way they’re designed to, people often report feeling more relaxed and mobile.”
Laser sessions may be incorporated as a supportive tool in a broader, non-invasive plan.
