Neck pain can be extremely uncomfortable and debilitating, especially when the pain travels from your neck down into your upper back and shoulders. Utilizing physical therapy can be a quick and effective option to achieve pain relief for your neck.

Approximately one-third of the population will experience neck pain in any given year according to the American Physical Therapy Association (APTA). Neck pain can get much worse if left untreated. In severe cases, surgery may be required prior to physical therapy.

Sharp pains in your neck can prevent you from functioning properly in your day-to-day life. Fortunately, many people are able to find neck pain relief every year through the help of physical therapy.
