AQINESIS - CONDITIONS

Neck pain and shoulder tension

Neck pain often has more layers than a tight muscle alone.

Does this feel familiar?

Conditions that
apply to you

Common patterns include:

Stiff neck

Shoulder tension

Headache from the neck

Jaw or upper back tension

Symptoms after screen work

Stress that settles in the shoulders

What may keep neck tension going

Neck and shoulder symptoms often interact with breathing, screen posture, stress, sleep and the way you hold yourself during daily tasks.

How I work

Acupuncture may reduce tension and calm the nervous system. Cesar Exercise Therapy helps you notice how you sit, work, breathe and move, and practise alternatives that fit your day.

Evidence-informed

Exercise therapy and acupuncture have both been studied for neck pain and tension-related symptoms. I use them carefully and evaluate what changes.

What you can expect

We look at your neck, shoulders and daily load together, then choose whether calm, movement or both should come first.

“Small changes in my posture made more difference than I expected.”

— Patient experience

Frequently asked questions

That differs per person. We evaluate regularly whether treatment is making enough difference.

Usually not. If symptoms are severe, sudden or medically worrying, contact your GP first.

Yes, when that makes sense for your symptoms. I discuss this during the initial consultation.

Sometimes it is best to discuss first.

I think it is important that you start in the right place. That is why I explain when you can contact me and when speaking to your GP first is wiser.

Contact your GP first

With sudden severe pain, loss of strength or sensation, fever, shortness of breath, chest pain, unexplained weight loss, symptoms after an accident or when you feel seriously ill.

Feel free to send me your question

If you are unsure whether acupuncture, Cesar Exercise Therapy or the combination fits. Also if you are already receiving treatment, use medication, are pregnant or mainly want to know where you can start safely.

I will think along honestly

During the initial consultation I look at what is appropriate. If my approach is not the right first step, I will say so and think along about a logical next step.

Would you like to discuss your situation?

You do not need to know exactly which treatment is right. Send me your question; I will think it through with you personally.
