ElitePT: Find Relief For Persistent Neck Pain

The Newsletter About Your Health And Caring For Your Body FIND RELIEF FOR PERSISTENT NECK PAINWITH PHYSICAL THERAPY

Approximately one-third of the population will experience neck pain in any given year, which can get worse if left untreated. In severe cases, surgery may even be needed. However, at Elite Physical Therapy, we want to do everything we can to help you avoid that. The neck is extremely important in the overall posture of the body. Where the head and neck move, so does the rest of the body. Changes in the alignment of your neck can cause a variety of symptoms such as neck tension, headaches, migraines, and even radiating pain or numbness to the arms and hands. How does Physical Therapy help with neck pain? This evidence is further illustrated in a 2017 qualitative systematic review conducted by the National Institutes of Health, titled “The efficacy of manual therapy and exercise for treating non-specific neck pain: A systematic review.” This reviewanalyzes a number of studies providing evidence for manual therapy and exercise treatments for patientswith

different stages of non-specific neck pain. Researchers pulled information from Medline, Cochrane-Register-of- Controlled-Trials, PEDro, and Embase. According to the researchers, one of the major takeaway points listed in the conclusion is that “combining different forms of [manual therapy] with exercise is better than [manual therapy] or exercise alone.” Results from the 23 studies chosen for reviewdemonstrated patient success across the board when pairing manual therapy with targeted exercises for neck pain. Results conclude, that Physical Therapy is a proven successful treatment for patients suffering from neck pain, and manual therapy and exercisemethods are themost effective in helping patients regain their optimum levels of function. Our main focus is helping you overcome discomfort and limitations as quickly as possible, so you can get back to living your daily life without worrying about pain.
