NeckHealth In Motion offers multiple locations in Wisconsin, with an additional location in Western Pennsylvania.
Neck pain can result from a variety of causes, from whiplash and other injuries to neck related arm pain or non-physical stressors. For example:
- Injuries: Rear-end collisions often result in whiplash injuries which occur when the head is jerked forward and then backward, stretching the soft tissues of the neck, and causing pain. Restoring normal range of motion and turning the stabilizing muscles of the neck back on again are keys to recovery.
- If your arm hurts while moving your neck, if you have shoulder pain which extends below the elbow, or you have numbness somewhere in your arm, you could have neck related arm pain. Your physical therapist will help you determine not only what area of your neck is likely involved, but specifically how to calm the nerves in your neck and arm as well as how to manage symptoms to promote fitness.
- Non-physical stressors (anxiety, depression, social/relationship stresses, etc.) can create an environment where smaller issues in the neck can be amplified. Have you ever said to anyone, “I take all my stress in my neck”? Physical therapists are great at being able to help you understand what is a tissue issue vs. a sensitive nervous system.
Studies show that treatment by a physical therapist can provide both short- and long-term relief for people with neck pain. We can design a program tailored to your specific needs to relieve your neck pain and improve mobility without expensive surgery or side effects of pain medication.
