Neck pain? We can help.
About Neck Pain
Neck pain is very common and can be caused by something as simple as poor posture when leaning over a computer or workbench. Other causes include muscle strains, joint injury, nerve compression, whiplash, or disease (e.g., rheumatoid arthritis). Neck pain can result in an inability to bend or rotate the neck, difficulty looking up or over the shoulder, weak arm and shoulder muscles, and muscle spasms.
The Science
Physical therapy can help patients with neck pain reduce pain and stiffness, improve head and neck range of motion, strengthen the neck and its surrounding muscles, and develop strategies for preventing future neck pain.
A study published in the Physical Therapy & Rehabilitation Journal supports the use of therapeutic exercise in the management of chronic nonspecific neck pain.
