IF YOU ARE LIVING WITH NECK PAIN, YOU’RE NOT LIVING FULLY!
RESTORE PHYSICAL THERAPY CAN HELP YOU FIND RELIEF! Do you have trouble holding your head up while sitting at your desk? Do you notice pain when tilting your head down to look at your phone or tie your shoes? Do you find it difficult to get comfortable when lying down to go to sleep at night? At Restore Physical Therapy, our physical therapists can help you find relief for your neck pain once and for all! Neck pain is common among adults, affecting up to 70% at some point in their lives. Unfortunately, a third of these people will develop chronic neck pain (i.e., pain that lasts longer than three months). Even small amounts of pain can lead to a downward spiral in the quality of life, energy, and overall well-being. Fortunately, physical therapy can help resolve the pains in your neck! If you’re struggling with pain and discomfort in your neck, contact Restore Physical Therapy today to schedule your consultation. What Are The Most Common Causes Of Neck Pain?
The neck is an integral area of everyday movement. Pain can prevent you from functioning correctly in your day-to-day life. Your neck relies on proper posture, flexibility, strength, and coordination to tolerate your normal activities and
more advanced sports and recreational pursuits. In our daily lives, we place tremendous strain and demand on our necks. Stress and poor posture can lead to long-term pain and dysfunction. The most common causes of neck pain include sprains and strains to the muscles, tendons and ligaments. Often the exact reason you are experiencing neck pain remains a mystery. Our physical therapists are skilled at identifying the contributing factors and, more importantly, how to find relief.

Some of the more common causes of neck pain include: Poor posture. Prolonged periods spent slouching while working on a computer lead to a forward head posture, which puts extra stress on the neck. Looking down at a phone may also cause pain. Sleeping in an awkward position . Holding the head at a wrong angle during the night can lead to a stiff neck in the morning. Repetitive motions. Turning the head repetitively, such as side to side while swimming, may lead to irritation of the neck muscles and joints. Trauma. Any fall or impact, such as a sports collision or whiplash from an auto accident. How Physical Therapy Can Help You Relieve Your Neck Pain Our physical therapists are movement experts equipped to identify and treat the primary source of your neck pain.
