  • Neck pain can significantly impact your daily life, work, and overall mobility:

    Understanding the common causes is crucial for finding the right treatment and achieving lasting relief. At Stride PT, we help identify and address these causes.

    • Muscle Strain: Often the result of poor posture, sudden movement, or overuse, muscle strain causes tightness, soreness, and stiffness in the neck.
    • Cervical Disc Herniation: When the cushioning discs between the cervical vertebrae bulge or rupture, they can compress nerves, leading to neck pain, tingling, numbness, or radiating pain into the arms.
    • Degenerative Disc Disease/Arthritis: Wear and tear on the cervical spine can lead to inflammation, stiffness, reduced mobility, and chronic discomfort.
    • Whiplash: A sudden, forceful movement of the neck—commonly from auto accidents—can injure muscles, ligaments, and joints, leading to pain, headaches, and limited range of motion.
    • Cervical Radiculopathy: Nerve irritation or compression in the neck may cause sharp pain, weakness, or numbness radiating down the shoulders and arms.
