Can physical therapy fix a pinched nerve in the neck?
In many cases, yes. Targeted mobility and strength progression often reduce nerve irritation symptoms.
How long does neck pain physical therapy take?
Most cases improve within 4–8 weeks, depending on severity and chronicity.
Is my neck pain coming from posture?
Often posture endurance plays a role, especially with desk work. Strengthening is usually more effective than stretching alone.
Can PT help headaches?
Yes, especially cervicogenic headaches that originate from the neck.
Do I need an MRI before starting PT?
Usually not. Clinical evaluation often guides effective treatment unless red flags are present.
