Back and Neck Pain Treatment in Matawan, NJ
Dr. Sharon Barnum: A & A Chiropractic
We treat back and neck pain without surgery or medication!
Back and neck pain can manifest itself in various ways to cause discomfort, irritation and lack of range of motion in the body. Back pain affects approximately three million people in the United States annually! Chiropractic care can help keep patients pain-free.
Upper and middle back pain may be caused by muscle or ligament strains, poor posture and damage or tension involving the discs in the spinal column. Low back pain is usually caused by strains or sprains from improper lifting, poor posture, lack of regular exercise, fracture, ruptured disk or arthritis.
This can happen very easily for people who work at a desk five days a week. It can also occur from pressure on the spinal nerves from certain problems, such as a herniated disc. It is important to be mindful of your body and how it is positioned during daily tasks to avoid injury. But sometimes, almost seemingly at random, back pain can strike, causing pain, discomfort and decreased quality of life.
Signs of back pain include, but are not limited to:
- Numbness or tingling
- Radiating or sharp, shooting pain
- Severe pain that does not improve after resting
- Pain after a fall or an injury
- Weakness
- Trouble urinating
- Fever
Chiropractic care promotes longevity and reduces pain
Chiropractic care is a painless, low-risk and non-invasive treatment that can have lasting results to avoid back pain with regular care. It is important to keep the spine healthy, as it is the center of the body and connects to everything, either directly or via the nervous system.
With gentle manipulation and other techniques, the body can be aligned and pain can be reduced or eliminated depending on the condition. Adjustments allow the nervous system to function optimally and allows the spinal column to deliver water, blood and nutrients to the body. This will help you heal and keep the body functioning at its best with regular care.
After a few sessions, many patients begin to feel relief. Depending on your condition, previous ailments and other factors, the time it takes to reduce or eliminate pain may vary. It is important to regularly visit your chiropractor to see lasting results.

Hi, I am 68 years young thanks to Dr. Barnum and her gifted healing hands. Born with a conjoined L5-S1 nerve root causing lifelong sciatica pain, orthopedic care, traction, physical therapy, numerous treatments including nerve block no other chiropractor has helped me live as functional and pain free as she has. During almost 2 decades compounded by degenerative disk disease, cervical spinal surgery due to injuries from accidents the treatment with Dr. Barnum has prevented me from more invasive treatments and/or surgery. There were times I felt it was not possible that my body could ever feel well again but with her extraordinary patience and gift she healed me to be well again. Coming from a family, a sister, in San Francisco, whom herself is a chiropractor; it is an Honor to highly recommend this gifted chiropractor, Dr. Sharon Barnum as the most FANTABULOUS chiropractor in Monmouth/ Middlesex County, New Jersey. Been to numerous chiropractors in my lifetime but none like her. She is utterly amazing!!! God bless her, her family and us all in our journey to be well!

Since going to Dr. Barnum for over 16 years I must say she is simply the best. She is the most patient, empathetic and skilled chiropractor I have ever been to and I have been to at least 5 others in my lifetime. Her ability to see through my pain and understand when I am not myself is astounding. My gratitude can never be fully explained. Put simply, I love how she makes me feel whole again ever time she treats me. Thank you Dr. Barnum for your gift of healing.

I had been struggling for years with chronic neck and back pain, along with pinched nerves that were sending shooting pain and numbness down both arms. Simple things like driving, working at my desk, or even sleeping had become miserable. I tried everything—physical therapy, massages, medications—but nothing gave me lasting relief. From my very first visit, Dr. Barnum made a huge difference. She took the time to really listen to my concerns, performed a thorough evaluation, and created a personalized treatment plan that targeted the root causes of my issues. Her adjustments are gentle yet incredibly effective. After just a few sessions, I noticed a dramatic reduction in my pain and the pinched nerve symptoms started to fade. For the first time in a long time, I can move freely without that constant discomfort. Dr. Barnum is not only an outstanding chiropractor but also a compassionate and caring professional who genuinely wants her patients to feel better. She explains everything clearly, answers all questions, and makes you feel completely at ease. Her office staff is friendly and the atmosphere is welcoming. If you’re dealing with neck, back, or nerve pain, do yourself a favor and book an appointment with Dr. Barnum. She has truly improved my quality of life, and I am so grateful to have found her. Thank you, Dr. Barnum—you’re a miracle worker!

Today was my 5th day doing the treatment. From the first day that I came to see Dr. Sharon Barnum up to today, I feel so much better. Like I told her, my pain went down by 70-80%. I drive about 1.5hrs approximately and my muscles became so intense that pain meds don’t work anymore. I was in so much pain that I had to call out so often. And on March 26, I could not help it anymore. I needed some help and Dr. Barnum helped me so much to heal my neck, shoulder and back pain. Despite that she is out of network for me, I keep going because she really helps me.

I lived with severe shoulder pain for two years that significantly limited my mobility. I was convinced I would eventually need surgery, especially since I couldn’t pinpoint any specific injury that caused it. After just a few short months of treatment with Dr. Barnum, my shoulder completely healed. It’s now been a full year, and I still have zero pain or limitations. I truly feel amazing. Dr. Barnum is incredibly skilled- her adjustments on the back and neck leave you feeling brand new every time. My body is so grateful for her care. I won’t ever go anywhere else and I can’t wait to go back!
