Neck pain is a common condition that can be caused by a variety of factors, including poor posture, muscle strains, injuries, or underlying medical conditions such as arthritis or a herniated disc.
At Rock Therapy we treat neck pain through a variety of techniques that aim to reduce pain, improve range of motion, and promote healing of the affected muscles, tendons, and joints.
First, one of our expert osteopaths will conduct a thorough examination of the neck area, which may include assessing the patient’s posture, joint mobility, and muscle strength. They may also order imaging tests such as X-rays or MRI scans to help diagnose the condition.
Once a diagnosis has been made, we use a variety of manual therapy techniques to treat neck pain. These may include soft tissue massage, joint mobilisation, and stretching exercises to relieve tension and promote healing in the affected muscles and joints.
It is likely that we will also prescribe exercises or physical therapy to strengthen the muscles around the neck, which can help to reduce the risk of further injury or recurrence of the condition.
In addition to hands-on treatments, we may also provide advice on ergonomics and posture, as well as lifestyle changes such as diet and exercise that can help to promote overall health and well-being. They may also recommend stress reduction techniques such as meditation or deep breathing exercises, as stress can often contribute to neck pain.
