Neck pain is a common condition that affects the cervical spine, which is the upper part of the spine that supports the head. It can be caused by a variety of factors, such as nerve and disc issues, fascial restrictions and joint dysfunction. These factors can contribute to pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility in the neck and surrounding areas.
Neck Pain
The most commonly reported symptoms of neck pain include discomfort or stiffness in the neck, reduced range of motion, headaches, numbness or tingling sensation, and muscle weakness. In some cases, the pain may radiate to the shoulders, arms, and hands, and individuals may experience a loss of balance or coordination. The severity of symptoms can vary from mild to severe and can have a significant impact on your daily activities and quality of life.
