Neck pain: home physiotherapy

How physiotherapy helps

Neck pain is increasingly common due to prolonged computer and mobile phone use. The constant forward head posture (text neck) strains the cervical discs and muscles. During home physiotherapy, the therapist applies specific spinal mobilization techniques, deep tissue massage, and targeted exercises for the cervical and back muscles. They also teach you proper ergonomic principles for your workspace to prevent recurrence. With consistent sessions and home exercises, most patients become pain-free within 4–8 weeks. Early intervention is key to avoiding chronic problems.

Common symptoms

• Pain and stiffness in the neck
