Physiotherapy for Whiplash in Didsbury, Manchester
Whiplash can affect movement, work, sleep and everyday activity. Physiotherapy can assess how symptoms present and support an individual plan for movement and rehabilitation.
Overview
Neck pain can range from local stiffness or aching to symptoms that make turning, working, sleeping or completing everyday tasks uncomfortable. Its pattern and impact vary between individuals.
Symptoms
Symptoms may include pain or stiffness around the neck and upper shoulders, restricted movement, muscular discomfort or headaches associated with neck symptoms. Some people notice symptoms into an arm, which may require further assessment.
Assessment
A physiotherapy assessment may consider symptom behaviour, health history, neck and upper-limb movement, strength, work or activity demands and neurological signs where relevant.
How we help
Physiotherapy may include appropriate movement, exercise, strength work and self-management advice. Recommendations are adapted to the individual, and further medical assessment or referral may be suggested when findings warrant it.
When to seek medical advice
Seek urgent medical advice for whiplash after significant trauma, rapidly worsening weakness or loss of coordination, new difficulty walking, severe headache with acute neurological symptoms, or if you are otherwise acutely unwell.
