Benefits of Neck Pain & Cervical Dysfunction Treatments
Discover how targeted treatments for Neck Pain & Cervical Dysfunction can reduce discomfort, restore mobility, and improve your overall quality of life—whether through physical therapy, medication, or lifestyle changes.
What are the Treatment Options for Neck Pain & Cervical Dysfunction?
Treatment aims to relieve pain, restore mobility, and improve posture and spinal health over the long term.
Non-Surgical Treatments
-
Osteopathy & Manual Therapy: Gentle, hands-on techniques to release tension, realign the spine, and reduce nerve pressure.
-
Postural Correction: Ergonomic advice, desk setup adjustments, and exercises to support proper head and neck alignment.
-
Targeted Exercise Therapy: Programs focused on strengthening postural muscles, improving flexibility, and retraining movement patterns.
-
Stress & Tension Relief: Breathing techniques, soft tissue therapy, and relaxation exercises to ease muscular tension.
Medication (if prescribed by your GP):
-
Over-the-counter pain relievers such as paracetamol or ibuprofen
-
Muscle relaxants (for severe spasm)
-
Prescription anti-inflammatory medications
-
Nerve pain medications (in cases of nerve compression)
Surgical Options (rare and only for advanced or unresolved cases):
Surgery may be considered when a structural issue (like a herniated disc or spinal stenosis) causes persistent symptoms that don’t respond to conservative treatment.
Common procedures:
-
Cervical discectomy (removal of a damaged disc)
-
Cervical fusion (stabilising two or more vertebrae)
-
Nerve decompression surgery
At Versano Clinics, we coordinate with spinal specialists and refer for imaging or surgical consultations if needed.
