Neck and Upper Back Pain
Upper back and neck pain are common and often related due to shared muscle attachments and proximity. Poor posture, muscle strain, and stress are frequent contributors. Addressing posture, strengthening core muscles, and practicing relaxation techniques can help alleviate pain. If home remedies don’t provide relief. Physical therapy can be an effective treatment for neck and upper back pain, offering a range of techniques to reduce pain, improve mobility, and strengthen supporting muscles.
Shoulder Pain
Shoulder pain can come from various sources, with rotator cuff issues being a frequent culprit. Other common causes include arthritis, bursitis, and tendonitis, along with injuries like dislocations, fractures, and frozen shoulder. Nerve injuries, impingement, and shoulder separation can also cause pain.
Hand and Wrist Pain
The hands and wrists are involved in nearly every daily activity, from typing to lifting. Pain or limited movement can result from overuse, injury, arthritis, or post-surgical recovery. Physical therapy is commonly used to reduce pain, restore strength and mobility, and improve overall hand and wrist function without the need for medication or further intervention.
