Treatment approaches
Most cases of neck pain respond very well to physiotherapy. Common modalities include:
Manual Therapy
Hands-on techniques including joint mobilisation, soft tissue massage, myofascial release and trigger point therapy. Used to reduce pain, restore movement and break down adhesions in muscles and connective tissue.
Exercise Therapy
The cornerstone of modern physiotherapy. Progressive, individualised exercises restore strength, mobility and motor control — the only intervention proven to produce long-term changes in tissue and function.
Dry Needling
Fine needles inserted into trigger points to release tight muscle bands. Effective for chronic muscle tension, headaches, and stubborn pain that doesn't respond to massage alone. Different from acupuncture in approach and goal.
Electrotherapy
Modalities like TENS, ultrasound, IFT and laser used to reduce pain and inflammation, especially in the early stages of injury. Always combined with exercise — never used as a standalone treatment.

Frequently asked questions
- Why is my neck pain worse after work?
- Most likely you're holding a forward-head posture for hours at the screen, which loads the cervical muscles 4-5x normal. Physiotherapy with posture correction and strengthening usually fixes this in 4-8 sessions.
- Is cervical spondylosis the same as a slip disc?
- No. Cervical spondylosis is age-related wear-and-tear of the neck vertebrae; slip disc is a specific herniation. Both can cause neck pain but the rehab plans differ.
- Will a neck pillow fix my neck pain?
- A good cervical pillow can help while sleeping but won't fix the underlying weakness or posture issue. Combine the pillow with physiotherapy for lasting relief.
