Neck pain and stiff neck
Q: Hello, I have an office job and I often feel pain and stiffness in my neck at the end of my work day and after work. What can be done to help with this problem?
A: Firstly, we recommend seeing a professional. Therapy is going to be based on strengthening your back and neck muscles which eases movements and helps with the pain. For example:
- Stretch 1 or 2 times a day as is shown in the pictures 7-12 2. Static exercises for your spinal cord Pictures 1-6
- Ultrasound
- Magnet
- Electro therapy
Examples of static exercises and stretching exercises
Useful advice Adjust the way you sit to take some burden off your spine. Each exercise is repeated 8-10 times for 3-5 seconds.
