Neck & Shoulder Pain Treatment at PhysioFit Physical Therapy & Wellness
Understanding/Treating Neck/Shoulder Pain, and Dysfunction.
Understanding Your Pain
Neck and shoulder pain can be debilitating from the many repetitive tasks we do throughout the day; whether it's turning our necks constantly while driving, or hunched over our keyboards, or worst yet, hunched over our cell phones.
Regular exercise is one of the most effective, evidence-based ways to alleviate pain in your neck and/or shoulder. But when your neck pain becomes too great, or your shoulder pain becomes too much, you might not be able to exercise at all, which can lead to increased sedentary activity and even more pain and dysfunction.
Our team at PhysioFit Physical Therapy & Wellness can help you get out of this vicious cycle and find effective relief. Call us to schedule an appointment with a physical therapist and get started on your personalized treatment plan.

Success Stories
I've been going to PhysioFit physical therapy for help with back and neck/shoulder issues for more than a year now. The physical therapists there are amazing (I've seen two of them) and I've also been working with two of the Pilates instructors there. As a team they have been amazing. I am much improved and am able to continue with normal daily activities and have been building strength.
