Neck Pain? PhysioFlex wants to help improve your symptoms

One of the most common conditions treated at PhysioFlex on the Gold Coast is Neck Pain! 

Senior Physiotherapists, Ben Mack and Morgan Pratt, are both extremely experienced in this particular area of pain and use a range of manipulation techniques and services including manual therapy, mobilisation,  massage and acupuncture to quickly relieve pain and restore natural movement to the neck.  

Most recently, PhysioFlex found a study reporting that neck pain is experienced by more than two-thirds of the population in Australia and is the most common condition patients seek health assistance for. Those who develop neck pain, typically experience pain persistence or future reoccurrence if not treated promptly and correctly.

It is suggested that immediate treatment and constant physiotherapy sessions for 2-4 weeks, depending on each individual patient, focusing on velocity thrust manipulation or mobilisation, will have a vast improvement on the condition and help to reduce the risk of future neck pain. 

If you are experiencing this type of pain or discomfort, we strongly advice you to seek assistance from your physiotherapist to reduce the symptoms immediately and assist you with the information and assurance for a comfortable and full recovery.
