Neck & shoulder pain / stiff neck

Neck strain can appear as you wake up in the morning or slowly creep over time causing limitation in movement of the neck to one side. The cause may be poor posture or having slept awkwardly. Assessment is aimed at identifying the tissue involved commonly the facet joints (located between vertebrae) or tight muscles that surround the neck and shoulder. Treatment is usually very successful with safe manipulations or mobilisations of the neck, stretching the muscles and posture correction exercises. Work station assessment and advice will also be provided.
