Neck strengthening exercises

Rehabilitating a neck injury is essential. This is an area that is very vulnerable, and also very hard to rest.

The neck is defined as the area of the seven cervical vertebrae, and pain in this area can be either acute, with a sudden and intense onset, or chronic, building up and lasting for weeks, months, or even years.

However, the right exercises can make a huge difference to your recovery. Rehab is designed to strengthen an area and increase the flexibility, with the aim of returning the patient to full functioning.
