Osteopathic care for neck pain in Orpington
Neck pain can affect everyday life in many ways. It may make turning your head, sitting at a desk, driving, sleeping, exercising or working more uncomfortable. Some people notice sudden neck pain after a strain, awkward movement or poor sleeping position. Others develop stiffness, aching or tension gradually over time.
Neck pain may be linked with the neck, upper back, shoulders, posture, work habits, stress, movement restriction or previous injury. It can sometimes feel sharp, stiff, tight, aching or restricted, and may be associated with upper back tension or headaches linked with neck stiffness.
At Resilience Osteopathy in Orpington, care begins with a clear assessment to understand your symptoms, how they started, what affects them and what may be contributing to the problem. Treatment is tailored to you and may include hands-on osteopathic care, movement advice, posture guidance and rehabilitation exercises where appropriate.
How osteopathy may help
Osteopathic care looks at how your neck, upper back, shoulders, posture, muscles, joints and movement habits may be contributing to your symptoms. The aim is to understand the bigger picture, rather than only focusing on the painful area.
Your appointment may include hands-on osteopathic treatment to support mobility and comfort, along with advice to help you manage your symptoms between appointments. Where appropriate, you may also be given simple rehabilitation exercises to support movement, strength and confidence.
Treatment is always based on your assessment findings, symptoms, goals and general health. If your symptoms suggest that medical review or further investigation is needed, you will be advised appropriately.

I attended David’s clinic with stiff and sore shoulders and neck which I’d suffered with for some time, leading to migraines -especially at night.
He quickly diagnosed issues relating to my spine and ribs, caused by tension and poor breathing.
During the course of several visits David gradually treated the problem and provided advice to manage the issue between sessions.
My neck and back are now so much better, to the extent that my migraines have all but disappeared. David is thorough, friendly and patient – I highly recommend him.
