NECK PAIN
When people suffer from neck discomfort, it can be extremely disabling. While many acute injuries are alarming at first, with the proper physiotherapy management strategy, they will settle down rapidly.
When neck pain lasts longer than expected, it is known as chronic neck pain. There are a variety of factors that might lead to this, including:
  • Stiff neck vertebrae
  • Protective movement patterns
  • Poor posture
  • Inadequate control of the neck
When these problems are paired with other factors including chronic high stress, insufficient sleep, anxiety, fear of neck movement, and depression, pain levels can amplify
All of these problems can be detected and rectified by your physiotherapist at Lambton Physiotherapy and Rehab, who will relieve your symptoms while also treating the underlying source of your discomfort.
  • Sleeping with the neck at an awkward position
  • Falling or sudden impact that pushes the head to the side, such as sports injuries
  • Experiencing excessive stress or anxiety, which can lead to tension in the neck
  • Turning the head side to side repeatedly during an activity, such as swimming the front crawl stroke
  • Slouching with poor posture while viewing the computer monitor or looking downward at a mobile phone for prolonged periods
  • Holding the neck in an abnormal position for a long period, such as cradling a phone between the neck and shoulder
