HOW OTTAWA HEALTH GROUP

CAN HELP NECK PAIN

Neck pain, fortunately, can be alleviated with chiropractic, physio and massage. Because neck pain is often caused by activity, different activity can cure it. Sometimes, this “activity” means “no activity.” Before you contact a professional, try reducing your neck movements. Sometimes, simply letting your neck muscles relax is enough. If you don’t see relief within two weeks, contact a professional. Ottawa Health Group’s practitioners can target your pain’s source by examining your symptoms. Then, they can offer exercises that stretch, flex and relax your neck muscles. In time, your neck will become more resilient — giving you the comfort you deserve. Where after-care treatment

is considered, custom-tailored neck exercises will assure your neck stays loose, limber, and healthy. If you’re dealing with neck pain, you’re not alone. Call our office today, and schedule an assessment. Even if your neck pain is caused by stress, it still needs attention. We’ll work side by side with your goals, creating the proactive, effective programs you need to achieve mobility once more.

Take charge of your neck pain by calling us or by visiting our website at www.ottawahealthgroup.com. We can help get your life back.
