PHYSIOTHERAPY FOR CERVICAL SPINE & NECK
In the area of the cervical spine, various symptoms are grouped together under the term cervical syndrome (CVS). Often it comes to recurring neck pain, which is known to many.
The pain can be caused by various structures including: the small facet joints of the spine, muscles or even the intervertebral discs. Very often, however, no structural cause can be identified. However, this does not mean that your pain is dangerous or that you shouldn’t move.
In addition to herniated discs, the cervical spine can also be affected by thoracic outlet syndrome lead to radiating pain or tingling in the area of the arms. Another typical injury is the so-called Whiplash injurywhich can affect various structures of the cervical spine
Another injury to the spine is vertebral fractures. Depending on the cause of the accident, these can happen at any age, but the risk is particularly high in older people, as they more often suffer from osteoporosis. After fracture healing, adapted training is recommended to prevent further fractures and regain resilience.
