Understanding the Condition
Cervical pain often involves the complex structures of the neck — vertebrae, discs, nerves, and facet joints. It can cause pain radiating into the shoulders, arms, and even hands, along with headaches and dizziness.
At Physio Expert Dubai, we specialize in identifying cervical nerve involvement and providing targeted treatment that relieves pressure, reduces inflammation, and restores normal nerve function.
Our Process
Comprehensive evaluation including cervical spine examination, neurological testing, and functional movement analysis.
Gentle cervical traction, mobilization, and manual therapy to relieve pressure on spinal nerves.
Progressive exercises to strengthen deep neck flexors, improve posture, and stabilize the cervical spine.
Long-term strategies including ergonomic setup, lifestyle advice, and home exercises to prevent recurrence.
