Your head is heavy and balanced on a narrow support made up of seven bones called vertebrae. Each bone has 6 degrees of freedom and 12 movements. The vertebrae are separated from each other by discs, stabilised by joints and ligaments and moved by muscles. Because the neck is so mobile, it is easily damaged. Injury and postural problems are the most common causes of neck pain. Diseases such as arthritis or degeneration of the discs can also cause pain.

Neuro Physiotherapy Moving Towards Freedom

Neuro Physiotherapy Moving Towards Freedom

Neurological conditions are very varied in how they affect people, with no two people having the same problems. It is therefore difficult to give precise details of what treatment will be given. The assessment session will give a picture of the main problems, and this will determine what treatment is most effective. The treatment sessions will also involve an element of on-going assessment, which may result in the treatment being changed.

It is important to be honest with the physiotherapist in how you feel, and what changes you, or your family, have noticed, whether they are improvements or deteriorations. If you have not been able to complete your home exercise/stretches programme, then it is better to say this, so that the physiotherapist will be able to alter you programme, so that you are able to complete it. This will mean you make the best possible recovery/improvement in the quickest possible time. During your assessment, and also during your treatment sessions, the physiotherapist will probably ask you to try things that you find difficult. This is so that the physiotherapist can work out the best way to help you.
