Neck Pain Physiotherapy in Port Moody
Neck pain is a common condition that can affect daily activities, work, sleep, and overall quality of life. At Aeris Physiotherapy Health and Wellness in Port Moody, our physiotherapists focus on identifying the underlying cause of neck pain and restoring safe, comfortable movement through individualized rehabilitation.
Using evidence-informed assessment, hands-on treatment, and targeted exercise programs, our goal is to reduce pain, improve mobility, and help you return to normal activities with confidence.
Early physiotherapy assessment can help prevent ongoing stiffness, recurring flare-ups, and long-term limitations.
Common Causes of Neck Pain
Neck pain can arise from multiple structures including muscles, joints, discs, and nerves. At Aeris Physiotherapy Health and Wellness in Port Moody, every assessment is designed to determine what is contributing to your specific symptoms.
Common causes of neck pain include:
Muscle strain from prolonged sitting or computer use
Poor posture or ergonomic strain
Whiplash injuries from motor vehicle accidents
Joint stiffness in the cervical spine
Disc irritation or nerve-related pain
Sports or exercise-related injuries
Stress-related muscle tension
In many cases, neck pain develops gradually from movement habits, muscle imbalances, or reduced mobility rather than a single injury.
