Neck Pain Treatment

Relieve Stiffness and Restore Movement – Expert Neck Care

In an era of smartphones and desk jobs, neck pain has become an epidemic. Whether it’s a sharp pain when you turn your head, a constant dull ache, or stiffness that leads to headaches, neck discomfort can significantly lower your quality of life. Dr. Ushna’s physiotherapy clinic uses evidence-based techniques to relieve tension, realign your cervical spine, and help you live pain-free.

Common Causes of Neck Pain

Neck pain is rarely just about the neck; it often involves the shoulders and upper back. We treat:

Tech Neck (Postural Strain): Pain caused by leaning forward to look at screens or phones.
Cervical Spondylosis: Age-related wear and tear of the spinal discs in your neck.
Whiplash Injuries: Common after car accidents or sudden jerks to the head.
Pinched Nerves: Leading to tingling or numbness in your arms and hands.
Muscle Knots (Trigger Points): Tight bands in the trapezius and neck muscles.

Our Specialized Recovery Approach

Posture & Ergonomic Analysis: We identify if your workspace or daily habits are straining your neck.
Manual Therapy: Gentle joint mobilizations and soft tissue massage to reduce stiffness.
Targeted Stretching: Releasing the tight muscles in the chest and front of the neck.
Strengthening Exercises: Building the deep neck flexors to support your head correctly.
Pain Management: Using therapeutic heat, cold, or electrical modalities to settle inflammation.

Benefits of Professional Neck Therapy

Headache Relief: Many tension headaches start in the neck; fixing the neck often stops the headaches.
Improved Range of Motion: Turn your head comfortably while driving or working.
Long-term Prevention: Learn how to sit and move so the pain doesn’t come back.
Avoid Medication: Reduce your reliance on painkillers by fixing the mechanical issue.

Can neck pain cause dizziness or headaches?

Yes. "Cervicogenic" headaches and dizziness are very common when the upper neck joints are stiff or the muscles are overly tight.

How many sessions will I need?

Most patients feel a difference in 2–3 sessions. A full recovery typically takes 4–8 sessions depending on how long you’ve had the pain.

Should I use a pillow for neck pain?

The right pillow is crucial. We provide personalized advice on sleeping positions and pillow types to ensure your neck is supported throughout the night.

Is cracking my own neck safe?

We advise against it. Self-cracking provides temporary relief but can lead to long-term joint instability. Professional mobilization is much safer and more effective.
