Treatment is often a combination of all the above!
Treatment is often a combination of all the above, while also modifying some of your daily tasks such as work setup. During our assessment we will take into consideration all factors and develop an individualised treatment plan for you.
Your physiotherapist will assess your specific condition to identify the best course of treatment. They will provide hands-on treatments and guide you through therapeutic exercises and self-management strategies to help alleviate your neck pain.
Aside from physiotherapy, it is important to identify and address any underlying factors that may be contributing to your neck pain. Poor posture, ergonomic issues, or stress can all exacerbate your symptoms. Your physiotherapist will work with you to identify these factors and help you to take steps to avoid them and prevent future pain.
Treatment is always a combination of the above and is different for every person. Our physiotherapists will assess your condition and develop an individualised treatment plan for you.
