Neck Pain

Home > Condition We Treat > Neck Pain

Neck pain is a very common condition that can also contribute to headaches, shoulder and upper back pain. Physiotherapy can greatly assist these problems.

The neck’s role is to support and move your head, which has significant weight. As a result, it is vulnerable to injury from prolonged periods of forwarding head posture such as being in front of the computer, laptops, television or playing computer games/devices. Other causes of neck pain can be traumas. For example, a whiplash injury from a vehicle accident, or numerous micro-injuries to the neck over the years, such as heavy lifting or sporting collisions, can cause degenerative neck changes.

Our physiotherapists can accurately and skilfully assess the origin of your pain and then discuss and plan the correct course of treatment for you.

A wide variety of treatment approaches can be used depending on the assessment.
