Neck stiffness, sore shoulders, tension that won’t go away—if this sounds familiar, you’re not alone.
Many people in Keswick deal with these aches daily, especially if they work at a desk or spend hours on their phone or computer.

But the good news is: physiotherapy can help.

Common Causes of Neck and Shoulder Pain

Some of the most frequent reasons people visit us for neck or shoulder discomfort include:

  • Poor posture (especially while sitting or working)
  • Old sports injuries that flare up
  • Stress and tension causing muscle tightness
  • Sleeping in awkward positions
  • Repetitive movements at work

Over time, this pain can become chronic or start to affect your daily routine.

How Physiotherapy Can Make a Difference

Physiotherapists don’t just treat the pain—they find what’s causing it and help you fix it for good.
Here’s how it works:

  1. Assessment
    We check your mobility, posture, and muscle imbalances to understand the root of the problem.
  2. Hands-On Treatment
    Techniques like manual therapy and soft tissue release ease tension and restore movement.
  3. Personalized Exercise Plan
    You’ll get stretches and strength-building exercises tailored to your needs and lifestyle.
  4. Education
    We teach you how to move better and prevent the pain from coming back.

When Should You Book a Physiotherapy Session?

If your pain:

  • Has lasted more than a week
  • Keeps coming back
  • Gets worse with movement
  • Interferes with sleep or daily activities

…it’s time to see a professional.
