NECK & HEAD
NECK & HEAD
Your head contains one of the most important parts of the body: your brain. Your neck provides support for your head. The neck describes the upper (cervical) spine consisting of vertebral bones, muscles, ligaments and tendons. Damage to any structure within the neck can cause pain along with headaches. The pain may also refer into the shoulders and arms and may be worsened due to weakness or problems with your posture.
Problems with your neck and head are very common due to the number of different structures that can become damaged. Physiotherapy can be an effective treatment for different head and neck conditions and there are a large number of different treatment options for neck and head conditions.
It is important to get a thorough assessment by a qualified physiotherapist in order to get correct diagnosis and determine what exactly is causing your symptoms.
