Relief from neck stiffness, cervical spondylosis and pain radiating into the shoulder or arm.
The neck carries the weight of the head and allows it constant movement, which makes it especially vulnerable to strain from posture, injury and age-related wear. Neck pain is increasingly common among younger patients due to prolonged laptop and phone use, alongside the traditional causes seen in older patients.
The cervical spine consists of seven small vertebrae supporting the skull, connected by discs, joints, muscles and nerves. Because of its flexibility and load-bearing role, even small amounts of strain or wear can cause disproportionate pain and stiffness.
Looking down at a screen for long periods strains the neck muscles and the cervical spine, leading to stiffness and pain over time. Correcting posture and screen height, along with physiotherapy, helps relieve and prevent it.
Yes, cervical pain often radiates upward and can trigger tension-type headaches, especially when muscles at the base of the skull are tight or in spasm.
Treatment typically combines manual therapy, targeted exercises, posture correction and electrotherapy to relieve pain and improve neck mobility, without surgery in most cases.
A proper assessment identifies exactly what's causing your pain, and how to fix it.
