Neck complaints

Have you been suffering from neck complaints for a long time that do not go away on their own? Then it is wise to contact your physiotherapist. Once you know where your pain comes from, the right treatment can quickly improve your condition.

What are the causes of neck complaints?
Neck complaints such as pain and stiffness in the neck can have various causes, including:
a wrong attitude
wrong tax
trauma, e.g. an accident
degeneration
persistent stressful situation
cramp due to cold
There is often a combination of the causes mentioned. In addition, many neck complaints have their origins in tension or stiffening of the upper back. This may have to do with your attitude, but emotional overload (current or in the past) can also play a role.
That is why it is always important that we look beyond the complaint itself, but also take into account your lifestyle and other factors. Relaxation and awareness are important aspects of the treatment for all our therapists.
