The pains and discomforts are your body’s way of telling you that something is wrong inside. Disregarding your condition result in significant changes in your muscles and bones eventually, causing the problem to get even worse. Therapy experts examine your alignment, strength, posture, stability, and mobility to diagnose the cause of your headache and neck pain. A physical therapy session then provides immediate relief to your pain, restore flexibility and strength, and improve posture.
