Local Physical Therapist Explains Neck Pain

Devanshi Modi, owner and physical therapist at Spineck Physical Therapy, leads an online program called “Physical Therapy For Neck Pain” on Friday, January 7 at noon.

She discusses the most common symptoms and causes of neck pain. These include medical conditions such as cervical spondylosis, pinched nerves, herniated discs, “text” neck and muscle spasms. Modi will explain the importance of common stretches and exercises, physical therapy options, ergonomics and other pain-relieving techniques.

With over twelve years of clinical experience in physical therapy, Modi is a Certified McKenzie Therapist specializing in treating neck and back pain.

“I believe that a detailed assessment to determine the root cause of the pain is just as important as treating the symptoms,” she added.

Registration is requested for this free program. To register, go to www.ebpl.org/calendar.

“Physical Therapy For Neck Pain” is offered through the library’s award-winning “Just For The Health Of It” consumer health and wellness information initiative. To learn more about related programs and resources, visit www.justforthehealthofit.org.
