Severe Neck Pain.Are you suffering with severe neck pain? I have seen many clients walk through my clinic doors absolutely crippled with neck pain.The severity of their symptoms often finds them crying with pain and feeling exhausted after many sleepless nights. Does this sound familiar to you? If so please take the time to read on. Severe neck pain often results for no apparent reason - according to the stories most patients have shared with me. However, the truth is that all severe neck pain patients that I have seen have had a long standing history of poor upper back and neck posture. A lot of severe neck pain sufferers don’t realise that their posture is incorrect until the damage is done. 
The good news is that posture correction will help resolve your neck pain greatly and is an absolute necessity for the prevention of further episodes of neck pain.
The most common causes of severe neck pain are muscle spasms - often known as a "Crick in the neck" - and facet joint mal-alignments resulting from whiplash injuries, or other impact injuries on the sporting field. A correct diagnosis by a Physiotherapist is absolutely essential for the correct treatment of your neck pain - followed by a correction in joint alignment as necessary. If your injury is muscular apply heat 3-4 times a day and try appropriate neck pain exercises to help in the recovery from your pain. Take anti-inflammatory medication if the pain is very severe, and move your neck and back in all directions that do not hurt. If your severe neck pain is not improving within 72 hours then seek medical advice from a doctor. Severe neck pain, if not managed well, may result in the episodes continuing. Correction of the cause of your severe neck pain is the main concern as with all injuries I treat, and if the cause of your neck pain is postural, then you must understand and seek advice in the correction of your posture. Severe neck pain will not be severe for long if you manage it well. If in doubt - talk to a qualified healthcare practitioner!
