Tech Neck — sometimes called text neck — refers to neck and upper back pain caused by prolonged forward head posture, typically from looking down at smartphones, tablets, computers, or other screens. This posture places excess stress on your cervical spine and supporting muscles, which can lead to discomfort, stiffness, and loss of mobility over time.
At Hudson Family Chiropractic, Physical Therapy & Acupuncture in Hoboken, NJ, we help patients from Hudson County and beyond find effective relief from Tech Neck using a combination of chiropractic adjustments, physical therapy, posture-focused care, and other evidence-based therapies.
What Causes Tech Neck?
Tech Neck arises largely from repetitive poor posture, especially when the head is tilted forward to view screens. This sustained position increases the load on your neck and upper back muscles, leading to:
Every inch your head moves forward increases the effort your neck muscles must exert, sometimes dramatically, ultimately causing chronic pain if left untreated.
How We Treat Tech Neck at Our Hoboken Clinic
At Hudson Family Chiropractic, we take a holistic, personalized approach to Tech Neck relief. Our team of experienced chiropractors and therapists with over 20 years of experience, assess your posture, spinal alignment, and movement patterns to design a plan that fits your needs.
🎯 Chiropractic Adjustments
Precise adjustments help restore proper cervical spine alignment, reduce nerve stress, and improve joint mobility to relieve neck and upper back pain.
💪 Physical Therapy & Postural Training
Targeted rehabilitation exercises strengthen supporting muscles and retrain posture to support long-term neck health and reduce strain from digital device use.
🧘 Acupuncture (Optional Add-On)
Acupuncture may be used to support pain modulation, reduce muscle tension, and promote overall comfort during treatment.
🌀 Spinal Decompression & Supportive Care
While classically used for disc-related back and nerve issues, spinal decompression techniques may be integrated when disc pressure contributes to neck discomfort or altered posture, providing gentle relief by reducing compression on spinal structures.
🧠 Education & Ergonomic Coaching
We teach ergonomic strategies such as raising screens to eye level, taking frequent breaks, and proper workstation setup to minimize Tech Neck triggers in daily life.
By combining natural, non-invasive care with posture correction and strength-building, we help patients move beyond temporary relief toward sustainable improvement.

Hudson Family Chiropractic is a long standing practice with roots in Hoboken, and real concern for their patients. I always feel great after an adjustment, and look forward to the next.

I’ve been coming to Hudson Family Chiropractic for almost 3 years now. I’ve suffered from neck and bulged disc pain for years before coming here. I also used to suffer from headaches every day; however, Dr. John and Dr. Mike are miracle workers. I now barely get headaches anymore and my neck pain has eased drastically. I now have a quality of life without the pain and suffering I had before coming to Hudson Family Chiropractic. Thank you so much!

I have worked with Dr. Mike for years. His gentle, attentive approach to chiropractor work takes all the nervousness about going to get an adjustment. And he doesn’t just do adjustments. He does deep stretches to ensure a correct spine adjustment and will even recommend exercises to do to improve posture. He is knowledgeable and incredibly effective. I always feel notably better after each visit. He is humble, friendly and extremely easy to work with. Do not hesitate in seeking his services for all of your chiropractory needs. You will not be disappointed.

I absolutely LOVE Dr. Suzie! She has helped me so much with PT. She is always so nice and down to earth! I fully recommend seeing her if you are dealing with any sort of pelvic discomfort / pain after birth.

Saw Dr. Mike and definitely recommend! Have been training for a power lifting meet and came as I’m starting to lift heavier and my back and butt have felt sorer as the weeks go by.
First appointment, was seen on time, quick and painless appointment. The staff was helpful and his work up was great. At the end of my session Dr. Mike didn’t recommend for me to go back which is what I feel usually happens with most chiropractors or PT. Run up my insurance and take advantage of my benefits. I will most definitely be back for adjustments in the future for some maintenance and better health.
I feel like he released like 15 years of tension from my body. Thank you!

I am a longtime patient of John and Mike and found their services to be professional, proficient, and effective. I can always count on getting an appointment in a reasonable time and getting in and out is fast. But recently, I needed the attention of a Physical Therapist, and that’s when they referred me to their therapist, Nicole.
My first meeting with Nicole was extremely pleasant and I was quickly impressed with her knowledge in her profession. She made me feel comfortable and she explained what was causing my pain and what her course of action would be. Within a few days, the pain had almost disappeared and I started for feel great. She continued to work with me and again, the appointments were around my schedule and we got to work and I was out the door never feeling rushed.
I want to personally thank the staff at Hudson Family Chiropractic, John and Mike for the work that they do and also Nicole for her skills in getting me back on my NEW bicycle.
Great job Guys.

Awesome 👏 felt immediate difference Staff great and friendly- thorough exam and treatment.

Was a full thorough exam/chiropractic experience with Dr. Bill. Was a very comfortable and nice place. Going twice more this week for my back.

Great chiropractic care. They have helped me heal from sports and “everyday life” injuries for many years.

I’ve been to Hudson Family on and off for the past 2 years. Bill is the best. He’s truly excellent, a consummate professional, empathetic, and so friendly. I appreciate that my appointments are always on-time – within :30, I’m walking out feeling so much better.
