Causes of pain in the neck
Pain in the neck can have several causes. Often it comes from sitting in the same position for a long time, for example at the computer or with your cell phone. The symptoms then slowly set in and get progressively worse. Sometimes the neck pain also causes headaches.
In some cases, it can suddenly shoot into your neck. We then call this acute neck pain, and if your head is tilted in the process, we call it acute torticollis.
Treatment usually consists of mobilizing, and possibly manipulating, the spine, relaxing the surrounding muscles and giving posture and loading advice.
Physio for neck pain
Recovery from neck pain can vary in length of time. This depends not only on the severity of the physical complaint but also on your own ability to recover. This recovery capacity can be reduced by stress. In times of stress, your body no longer recovers well from the load placed on it. As a result, a normal load can suddenly become an overload. This then manifests itself in the form of neck pain. With physio for neck pain you can support the recovery process and prevent the symptoms from returning later. During treatment you will be informed and given advice for your situation. You will learn, among other things, how to adopt a good posture, how to relax, how to strengthen the right muscles and how to keep yourself flexible.
