Cervical Pain & Neck Conditions
Neck pain and cervical conditions are increasingly common in today's digital age — long hours at desks, smartphone use, and poor posture all contribute to cervical spine dysfunction. At Actilife Physiotherapy, we specialize in diagnosing and treating a wide range of neck conditions.
Our comprehensive assessment evaluates not just your neck, but your entire kinetic chain — including shoulder girdle, thoracic spine, and posture — to identify contributing factors. Treatment may include cervical mobilisation, soft tissue release, nerve mobilisation, and postural re-education.
We treat conditions ranging from acute wry neck (torticollis) and muscle strains to chronic cervical spondylosis, disc bulges, and radiculopathy (pain radiating down the arm with pins and needles).
