Neck Pain

We all experience neck pain from time to time – sometimes you sleep wrong, move your head too fast or overuse
Neck Pain physical therapy treatment

For some, the pain never goes away and causes continuous headaches. It can flare up while sitting for long periods of time, exercising, playing with your kids or while trying to do the sports you love. No matter what symptoms you’re experiencing, there is help. Our team at PRO Therapy can help you find the root cause.

Common Cause of Neck Pain

Getting to the bottom of what’s bothering your neck is key to creating the best treatment plan for you. In addition to pain, other signs and symptoms can indicate if there’s an issue with your neck, like:

  • Persistent ache or stiffness in the neck
  • Shooting pain from neck to shoulders or arms
  • Headaches
  • Difficulty turning the neck
  • Numbness or tingling in shoulders, arms or fingers
    Neck strain usually comes from everyday activities with poor posture, working at a desk for too long without change, sleeping with your neck in a bad position or wrong movement during an exercise.

    Other common neck pain is caused by motor vehicle accidents – Strained, torn, or stretched ligaments can cause ongoing neck pain after an accident. Even if time has passed and it doesn’t seem related, letting your provider know of any motor vehicle accident history is important.

    Neck Pain Treatment

    Our team of physical therapists, all fully licensed Doctors of Physical Therapy, have a bunch of tricks up their sleeves to ease your neck pain and get you moving again

    Manual Therapy

    Joint mobilization
    Gentle movements to improve mobility in areas of the spine that are restricted, restoring normal joint mechanics and reducing stiffness.

    Soft tissue mobilization
    Techniques like massage and myofascial release may be used to release tension in muscles, ligaments and fascia focused around the spine.

    Trigger point therapy
    We provide targeted pressure to alleviate muscle tension and improve function.

    Therapeutic Interventions

    Movement Analysis
    During movement analysis, our physical therapists analyze posture, balance, and other factors to help diagnose the root cause of your pain.

    Custom Rehab Programs
    We create personalized rehab plans to strengthen your muscles, boost your flexibility, and help you straighten up your posture.

    Postural Training
    We’ll give you the lowdown on Posture 101 – what is best for you right now? Should you stand? Should you sit? Both? Let us help you find the best postural changes for you.

    Therapeutic Interventions

    Custom Rehab Programs
    We’ll create a personalized rehab program to strengthen the muscles supporting the neck, improve your flexibility, and provide more stability.

    Functional Training
    We pay special attention to simulating real-life movements to improve overall function and performance.

    Activity modification and return to sport
    We help you carefully and gradually progress your activity level to reduce the risk of re-injury.

    The PRO Therapy Difference

    At PRO Therapy, our goal is to empower you to live a pain-free life by addressing the root causes of your neck pain and providing comprehensive treatment tailored to your unique needs.

    If you’re suffering from neck pain and stiffness, it’s easy to hope that it will go away on its own. You might think you just slept awkwardly, or it’s just a spasm, or that everyone your age has neck pain.

    If you’re experiencing neck pain and don’t know what caused it, everything you’ve tried isn’t working and you’re fed up – you’ve come to the right place. As a matter of fact, general neck pain and sciatica are the most common concerns that we hear about at PRO Therapy.

    The difference between seeing one of our physical therapists and seeing your primary care doctor or another type of provider is that a Doctor of Physical Therapy is more specialized in assessing causes of pain and stiffness.

    In just a couple of sessions, we can often dial down your pain and stiffness and get you feeling better fast.

    I had the pleasure of working with Dr Kalvin,I had tendinitis in my knee and hamstring, after 6wks of P.T my pain level went from a 10 down to a 1. He was absolutely amazing, very informative and patient with me. Thank you so much for taking care of me 💖

    I have gone to many physical therapists over the years and PRO Therapy has been one of the best. I have been here for two separate injuries. They have been able to pinpoint where my symptoms are coming from quickly, explain the issue throughly, and create an effective plan of action. My pain has decreased since coming here! It is a nice, friendly environment, with good conversation.

    Strongly recommend for physical therapy. I saw Dr. Lily for a running-related injury. She was fantastic and helped me recover from my injury and get running again. The facility was very nice, and everyone I interacted with there was great. Thank you!

    Went in for help with my knee as it usually gets tight when I run. We went through a few sessions and honed in on what the problem potentially is. Dr. Kelvyn pointed a few things out that I wouldn't have figured out myself. Since the problem is probably form and/or muscle related it won't be an overnight fix. I get a set of exercises to do each visit that address my areas of weakness. It was good working with Dr. Kelvyn and definitely recommend checking out PRO Therapy

    Excellent Care! Personally Customized Therapy. Over the course of several months I had the privilege of receiving physical therapy from Dr. Lily Anderson, that was tailored to me and my specific ailments. Beyond the arch of progress through the treatment plan, each appointment was customized to my needs and ability of the day. She was able to help me have reduced pain, increased mobility and strength in all my areas of need. This amount of detailed attention was astounding. I felt truly cared for, and am filled with gratitude. Thank you Lily!
