How can a physio help my neck pain?

A physiotherapist can help with neck pain in several ways:

1. Pain management: A physiotherapist can use techniques such as manual therapy, acupuncture, or electrotherapy to help manage neck pain.
2. Exercise therapy: A physiotherapist can design a customized exercise program to improve flexibility, strength, and endurance of the muscles in the neck, shoulders, and upper back, which can help to reduce neck pain.
3. Posture correction: A physiotherapist can help to correct poor posture, which can contribute to neck pain.
4. Ergonomic advice: A physiotherapist can provide advice on proper ergonomics and body mechanics, including how to sit, stand, and use electronic devices in a way that reduces the risk of neck pain.
5. Manual therapy: A physiotherapist can use techniques such as massage, mobilization, or manipulation to improve joint mobility and reduce muscle tension in the neck.
6. Patient education: A physiotherapist can educate patients on how to manage neck pain, including advice on how to stay active, manage stress, and improve sleep quality.
7. Overall, a physiotherapist can help to address the root causes of neck pain and provide patients with tools and techniques to manage their symptoms and prevent future flare-ups.
