There
are many conditions that affect the cervical
spine and the treatment of each varies, depending
upon each individual’s thorough assessment.
The patient receives:
A comprehensive assessment
Identification of the problem
A relevant treatment intervention program
Usually,
a long-standing neck condition requires a
neck stabilising program that consists of
an exercise component that concentrates on
the deep neck flexor and shoulder girdle musculature.
This program’s main emphasis is on restoring
‘muscle control’ rather than muscle
strength and general fitness. These exercises
are easily taught, not time consuming and
can be incorporated into everyday life.
Short-term neck conditions require a thorough
evaluation including the discs and joints,
nerves and muscles to determine the necessary
treatment.
The
most common neck conditions treated at The
Back and Neck Centre include:
Biomechanical
abnormalities
Headaches
Joints & Discs
Levator Scapulae Syndrome
Osteoarthritis
Pinched Nerves
