What can a virtual physical therapy session for neck pain do for me?

Physical Therapy for Neck Pain

It’s there with every turn and tilt of your head. It’s there when you’re sleeping, while you’re working and when you’re trying to spend time with your family. These are just some of the times when you might be affected by neck pain.

Neck pain is truly a common issue for Americans, and it’s estimated that 54% of people have experienced an aching neck in the past six months. Virtual physical therapy is one option you can try for your neck pain. This type of PT is also called telehealth PT, and it takes place over a secure online video feed, much like the virtual meetings so many workers are now attending.

It may seem like there are a limited number of things that virtual physical therapy can do for your neck pain. But there are actually several ways that these sessions can help you.

Three ways that virtual physical therapy for neck pain can help you:

  1. Educating you — Most patients aren’t sure why they have neck pain or what treatment options are the most effective for it. A physical therapist can spend time determining the cause of your pain during a telehealth PT session. They can then help you learn more about your condition, symptoms and the available treatment options.
  1. Reducing pain — One of the primary goals of virtual physical therapy sessions is to reduce your neck discomfort. Fortunately, telehealth PT can be very effective at decreasing pain. A virtual PT provider reports that 93% of their patients had less pain after working with a physical therapist virtually. Reducing your pain is often accomplished using a mixture of therapeutic exercises.
  1. Improving posture — Your posture often has a lot to do with neck pain. Good posture tends to reduce neck pain and the chances of developing neck pain; poor posture can have the opposite effect. A virtual physical therapist can evaluate your posture and help you understand why poor posture can trigger neck pain. Additionally, your physical therapist can make ergonomic recommendations intended to improve your posture.
