NECK SELF-ASSESSMENT: NECK PAIN, TENSION AND STIFFNESS

Physiotherapy resources, exercises and guidance to better understand the origin of your neck discomfort

Neck pain is one of the most common musculoskeletal problems and can affect people of all ages.

The cervical region is exposed to different demands every day. Some people spend many hours sitting at a computer, using a mobile phone or driving. Others work long hours standing, perform repetitive physical tasks or keep their head elevated for much of the day.

When neck discomfort develops, it is common to experience:

🔹 stiffness when moving the neck

🔹 tension in the neck and shoulders

🔹 discomfort when maintaining the same position for long periods

🔹 a feeling of overload at the end of the day

🔹 discomfort when turning or tilting the head

However, not all neck pain has the same origin.

Different structures and contributing factors may be involved and, for this reason, generic or random exercises do not always provide the best results.

In physiotherapy, understanding what may be contributing to the problem first allows you to select more appropriate exercises and develop a more specific strategy for your situation.


I’m Antonio, a physiotherapist specialising in musculoskeletal conditions and the founder of PhysioCareHub.

My philosophy is simple:

👉 Understand the problem before trying to solve it.

For this reason, I have developed a Comprehensive Neck Self-Assessment, designed to help you better understand your symptoms and choose the most appropriate protocol.


🎯 COMPREHENSIVE NECK SELF-ASSESSMENT

If you are experiencing neck pain, tension or stiffness and are unsure which factors may be contributing to your symptoms, we recommend starting with our Comprehensive Neck Self-Assessment.

Through guided questions, photographs, explanatory videos and orientation tests, you will be able to explore different aspects of the cervical region and gain a better understanding of what may be contributing to your symptoms.

The goal is not simply to perform exercises, but to help you better understand your situation and guide you towards the most appropriate protocol.

📖 Don’t worry if this PDF contains several pages

Everyone experiences pain differently, which is why this programme includes several rehabilitation protocols.

After completing the guided self-assessment, you’ll be able to identify the section that best matches your symptoms and go directly to the exercises and recommendations designed for your specific situation.

This way, you can focus only on the information that is most relevant to you, without having to read the entire document.
