The neck is a complex part of our body, with bones, muscles, and nerves all working together. When something goes wrong in this delicate balance, it can result in pain and discomfort.

Your first visit, your physical therapist will conduct a thorough evaluation. They will ask about your medical history, assess your range of motion, and discuss your pain symptoms. Once they have a clear picture, they will create a personalized plan for your recovery. This plan will include specific exercises and techniques tailored to your condition. You’ll work closely with your therapist, who will monitor your progress and adjust as needed. Here are some of the benefits you can expect from physical therapy for neck pain: • Pain Relief: The primary goal of physical therapy is to reduce your pain and discomfort. With targeted exercises and techniques, many people experience significant relief. • Improved Mobility: You’ll likely notice improved neck mobility as you progress through your therapy.

RECIPE OF THE MONTH VEGAN ENCHILADAS
Ingredients: • 2 tbsp olive oil • 1 block tempeh • ½ onion chopped • 3 cloves garlic minced
• 2 tbsp less-sodium soy sauce • Salt to taste • 1 ½-2 c shredded vegan cheese • 8 flour tortillas • 2 c enchilada sauce For Serving: shredded lettuce, sal- sa, vegan sour cream, guacamole, cilantro, etc.
• 14.5 oz black beans • 2 tsp ground cumin • 1 tsp paprika • ¼ tsp liquid smoke optional
Directions: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. While the oil is heating, prepare the tempeh mixture. Cut or crumble the tempeh into small pieces. Once the oil is hot, add in the chopped onion and sauté until translucent. Add in the minced garlic and tempeh and cook until the tempeh starts to brown. Add in black beans as well as the spices and stir to combine. Lastly pour over the soy sauce and liquid smoke and stir again to make sure all the tempeh and black beans have been well seasoned. Preheat your oven to 350 °F and start assembling the enchiladas. Pour about ½-1 cup of enchilada sauce over the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish and spread it out to coat the bottom of the dish. Fill each tortilla with the tempeh mixture and a handful of cheese. Roll up the tortilla and place it seam-side down into your prepared baking dish. Continue this process until all 8 tortillas have been filled and placed in the dish. Pour over the remaining enchilada sauce and spread it evenly over the tortillas. Sprinkle the top of the enchiladas with the remaining cheese. Bake the enchiladas uncovered for about 20 minutes. Serve warm with your favorite toppings.

This innovative approach to neck pain treatment focuses on education, exer- cises, and posture correction, aiming to reduce pain, and pre- vent future discomfort. Let’s look closer at how the McKenzie Method can provide the relief you’ve been seeking. Reducing Pain & Enhancing Functionality The core principle of the McKenzie Method is to empower individuals with the knowledge and tools to manage their neck pain effectively. Your journey with the McKenzie Method be- gins with a thorough assessment by one of our trained ther- apists. This assessment helps categorize your condition and allows your therapist to recommend tailored neck exercises. Additionally, we’ll provide guidance on which postures to adopt and which to avoid. These exercises not only address your current symptoms but also work to prevent future recur- rences. Focused on Relief One distinctive feature of the McKenzie Method is its empha- sis on movements and positions that provide immediate and lasting relief. Your therapist will identify which specific move- ments and postures alleviate your neck pain and incorporate them into your treatment plan.

With the McKenzie Method, you can actively participate in your own recovery by doing what helps and avoiding what hurts!
