Neck & Shoulder Pain

Neck pain is typically characterized by soreness and difficulty moving the head, especially when trying to turn the head to the side. It may also be accompanied by a headache, neck pain, shoulder pain and/or arm pain. In order to look sideways or over the shoulder, an individual may need to turn the entire body instead of the stiff neck.

​

Most people will experience neck pain and the inconvenience of a stiff neck at some point in their life. It may be felt most severely when waking up in the morning or perhaps develop later in the day after strenuous activity. Some of the most common causes of neck pain are related to prolonged periods of postural stress from occupations. Poor positions for desks, screens and keyboards and modern devices such as tablets and mobile phones also place a great demand on the neck and shoulder area.

​

Massage Therapy offers a number of treatments for persistent neck pain and shoulder problems. Using combinations of hydrotherapy, fascial release, triggerpoint therapy, deep tissue massage and myoskeletal alignment techniques in a single treatment session can be a highly effective solution to the problem.

Neck and Shoulder treatments require a First Consultation to record medical history and carry out assessments.
