Neck Pain: Don’t Ignore the Symptoms!

There are many causes of neck pain and as physiotherapists we take a holistic look at your lifestyle and habits including things like your work station, sleeping posture and fitness regime to prevent further injury and enable you to make a full recovery.

It is important to diagnose the causes of your neck pain as it can also be an indicator of larger scale problems such as: osteoarthritis, cervical spondylosis, spinal stenosis, neck injury like whiplash, a herniated disc or a pinched nerve (cervical radiculopathy).

Whilst neck pain is a rather common issue, it shouldn’t be taken lightly and it is important to start a physiotherapy treatment to prevent the neck pain from worsening or recurring.
