Neck Pain

Osteoarthritis in the spine

Osteoarthritis is the term used to describe the gradual deterioration of joint surfaces over time, which can affect various joints in the body, including those in the neck. The neck, composed of seven individual cervical vertebrae referred to as C1 through C7, can experience this degenerative process in some individuals, often starting at an early stage. Common symptoms include inflammation and stiffness.
Physiotherapy offers valuable assistance through specially tailored exercises aimed at enhancing flexibility and strengthening the muscles that support the affected joints. Additionally, manual therapy techniques can be employed to alleviate discomfort.
