Neck Pain

It is estimated the prevalence of neck pain in the world ranges from 16%-75%. While the exact percentage is not known for certain, odds are that you or someone you know has or is dealing with neck pain. The cervical spine, or neck, consists of 7 vertebrae (bones of the spine), interspaced by vertebral discs (the cartilaginous cushions between the vertebrae), and several muscles and ligaments. Common conditions that lead to neck pain include sprains and strains of the ligaments and muscles, whiplash, injuries to the discs, arthritis of the spinal joints, and chronic tension in the neck muscles. At Integrative PT and Wellness, we often utilize a combination of treatment approaches that include manual therapy, dry needling, specific exercise programming, postural retraining, and advice on activity modifications, all of which are catered to your specific problem to provide you with superior results and get you back to doing the activities you love.
