Neck Pain
"Struggling with Difficulty Sleeping or Simple Daily Tasks Due to Neck Pain and Headaches?
Is This Your Experience?
You anticipated the discomfort would fade away within days or weeks, yet it persists. Despite trying various at-home treatments like heating pads, ice, and TENS devices, relief remains elusive.
Massage sessions provided temporary relief, but the pain returned shortly afterward. Medical interventions, such as injections or prescribed medications, offered short-lived effects. Previous attempts at physical therapy did not yield the desired results.
You’ve found ways to manage by avoiding activities that trigger pain, right?
We’re Here To Provide Lasting Solutions.
Common Neck Issues We Address:
- Headaches
- Joint Stiffness
- Muscle Strains and Tension
- Degenerative Disc Disease & Injuries
Typical Causes:
Impaired Mechanics: Weakness and muscle imbalance lead to reduced range of motion, while joint stiffness and muscle inflexibility compromise posture.
Sudden Load or Impact: Injury occurs due to a sudden load or impact on the tissue.
Chronic Compensatory Mechanisms: Avoidance of activity in certain muscle groups and overuse of other tissues due to past injuries or fear of future injuries.
Switchback Direct PT's Approach:
- Enhance Neck and Thoracic (Midback) Posture.
- Reduce Tension in Upper Neck Muscles.
- Improve Flexibility of Chest and Neck Muscles.
- Utilize Manipulation, Manual Joint Mobilization, and Traction to Enhance Joint Mobility.
- Strengthen Neck and Shoulder Blade Muscles Effectively.
- Employ Massage, Instrument-Assisted Mobilization, and Cupping to Increase Tissue Mobility.
- Incorporate Specific Nerve Exercises to Reduce Sensitivity (Numbness, Tingling, and Pain Extending Down the Arm).
- Develop Functional and Plyometric Exercises (Throwing, Catching, Pushing, Pulling, Pressing).
Key Facts to Keep in Mind:
- Tissues Recover: The body can heal itself, sometimes requiring assistance to progress from inflammation to recovery.
- Imaging Correlation: MRI and x-ray results may not always align with the actual cause of pain or functional impairment.
- Exercise Soreness: Post-exercise soreness is a natural part of strength gains and can be used to gauge tissue readiness for increased load.
- Return to Activities: With proper guidance, mechanics, and progressive tissue loading, returning to previous or desired activities is achievable.
