Neck pain is a common complaint among people of all ages, and can be caused by a variety of factors including poor posture, injury and stress.
While medication and surgery can provide relief in some cases, these treatments often come with side effects and risks. getback™ physiotherapy and movement based treatment offers a safe and effective alternative for managing neck pain.
Your initial consultation is designed to assess whether movement-based therapy should form part of your treatment plan.
getback™ therapy targets and activates the deep muscles around the spine associated with neck pain. Treatment focuses on mobilising and strengthening these deep spinal muscles, which play a critical role in supporting the spine and reducing neck pain.
Neck pain makes us avoid moving the painful area, resulting in loss of mobility and weakening the deep supporting muscles. Without treatment, this ‘de-conditioning’ cycle continues and episodes of neck pain may occur more frequently.
When pain and loss of strength is involved, it’s vital for patients to start movement-based treatment in a safe and supported way.
Your treatment to rebuild any weakened or injured spinal muscles starts with a limited range of movement and light loading. Treatment is enhanced by rehabilitation devices designed to provide you with support through the full range of movement.
The devices enable safe and progressive exercise for the deep spinal muscles associated with neck pain and ensure your treatment focuses on pain-free and highly targeted resistance.
After your initial physiotherapy consultation, a customised plan of between 12 and 24 treatments is designed for you.
getback™ recommends two treatments of approximately 30 minutes per week.
Most patients feel an improvement in their strength and range of movement within four weeks. Patients are able to track their improvement in regular reviews of their data with our Physiotherapists and Exercise Physiologists.
