How it works
Deep cervical flexor strengthening corrects motor control deficits that perpetuate neck pain. Manual therapy mobilises restricted cervical segments and reduces local muscle guarding.
Combination of exercise and manual therapy is more effective than either alone. Consistent home exercise programme is essential for lasting benefit. Medicare-rebated under GPMP.
Finding a practitioner
Seek a qualified and registered practitioner. In Australia, check AHPRA (ahpra.gov.au) for registered health practitioners including physiotherapists, psychologists, and Chinese medicine practitioners.
