- It’s hard to concentrate at work with neck pain
Mechanical neck pain is a common condition that affects an estimated 70% of persons at some point in their lives. Little research exists to guide the choice of therapy for acute and subacute neck pain.
Objective: To determine the relative efficacy of spinal manipulation therapy (SMT), medication, and home exercise with advice (HEA) for acute and subacute neck pain in both the short and long term.
At our clinic we use a multifactorial approach to treatment which encompasses spinal manipulation and advice and exercises. Our neck exercises can be downloaded here
