Neck and upper back pain can stem from a variety of causes, often intertwined with the demands of modern living. Prolonged periods of poor posture, especially while working at computers or using smartphones, contribute significantly to muscle strain and tension in the neck and upper back. Stress and tension can manifest physically in this region, exacerbating discomfort. Additionally, injuries such as whiplash from accidents or strains from heavy lifting may lead to pain in these areas. Arthritis, herniated discs, and degenerative conditions also play a role in chronic neck and upper back pain. Understanding these diverse triggers is crucial in devising effective strategies for relief and prevention.
Five Dock Osteopathic and Chiropractic Centre’s unique approach provides lasting relief and long-term solutions to all neck and upper back-related problems.
The best approach to recovery for neck and upper back pain typically involves a multi-step strategy. It begins with an accurate diagnosis by a healthcare professional. Your diagnosis will determine the amount of treatment and rest you will need. Your diagnosis will also determine the pain-exacerbating activities that you will need to avoid. Timely treatment is important and may include a combination of soft tissue massage and joint mobilisation techniques. To reduce pain and muscle spasms, to improve mobility, and to promote healing. You will also be provided with take-home exercises to maintain and continue to improve your mobility, at home. Following recovery, you will then be provided with strengthening exercises to prevent re-injury. You will also be provided with recommendations for lifestyle modifications and methods to correct your posture and movement. Ultimately, a personalised approach, focusing on addressing the specific underlying cause of your symptoms, is the key to your successful recovery.
