What we treat
Where does it hurt?
Common reasons patients come to see us, area by area. Scroll to look beneath the skin and travel through the body; drag the figure to turn it. An educational model, not a diagnosis: your physiotherapist assesses the cause in person.

II · Neck · upper back
Neck pain, stiffness and headaches
Stiffness, pain after sitting or driving, whiplash, and headaches that start in the neck. We look at posture, joints and nerves, then build a short exercise plan.
