Neck Pain Physiotherapy in Edinburgh
A stiff, aching neck can make the whole day harder. Checking your blind spot in the car, looking down at your phone, even getting comfortable at night. Most of the time it builds up slowly from desk work, poor posture or sleeping awkwardly, and then it just will not settle.

What Causes Neck Pain
Neck pain has a lot of everyday causes. Long hours at a desk, hunching over a laptop, carrying stress in your shoulders, an old injury, or simply sleeping in an odd position. Sometimes the pain spreads into the shoulders or gives you headaches. Whatever is behind it, the first step is a proper assessment so we understand your particular neck, not a general case.
