Types of Physical Therapy For Neck & Back Pain Relief

Passive Physical Therapy: These are physical therapy treatments being applied without effort from the patient. Numerous treatment methods are available, such as applying ice packs, heat therapy, massage therapy, ultrasound, electrotherapy, and others. The goal of passive physical therapy is to help reduce pain and swelling.
Active Physical Therapy: This type of physical therapy involves the patient moving their own body through exercises and stretches. By improving strength and flexibility in the neck, these muscles may become less painful and better able to maintain good posture, which reduces stress on the cervical spine.
