Neck Pain
Physical therapy treatment addresses neck pain by
assessing the muscles, tendons, ligaments, nerves, bones, and
joints in that region of the body. Neck pain may also accompany
shoulder, jaw, head, or upper arms/upper back pain. Common causes
of neck pain include whiplash (neck strain or sprain), poor
posture, rheumatoid arthritis, cervical disc degeneration,
herniated cervical disc, and improper sleeping positions. If neck
pain is chronic or reoccurring, you should seek a physical
therapist to relieve
yourpain and to address muscle imbalances to
manageyour complaint.

Your Right to Choose
The decision of where you go to receive treatment is
yours. If you have a specific therapist or practice you
would like to go to, you should let your doctor or
insurance company know this. Not all physical
therapists or practices are the same and the choice
of your provider is yours.
