OVERVIEW
Neck, back, and shoulder pain are among the most common musculoskeletal disorders that affect people of all ages. These conditions can arise due to various factors, including injury, poor posture, degenerative diseases, and repetitive stress. The impact of such pain extends beyond physical discomfort, affecting daily activities, mobility, work performance, and overall well-being.

Helps flush out toxins, excess fluids, and metabolic waste from the body by improving lymph flow.
Symptoms
Includes stiffness, sharp pain, muscle spasms, and radiating pain (to arms, hands, or legs if nerves are involved).
Common Causes
Acute pain is usually due to injury, strain, or poor posture, while chronic pain often results from degenerative conditions, nerve damage, or repetitive stress.
Treatment & Prevention

frequently asked question
1. When should I see a doctor for neck, back, or shoulder pain?
You should visit FITCLINIC if you experience a sudden injury, persistent pain lasting more than a few days, severe pain that affects mobility, or symptoms like numbness, tingling, or muscle weakness. These could indicate an underlying condition requiring specialized medical evaluation, follow-up care, or a rehabilitation program for degenerative, sports-related, or chronic conditions.
2. Can prolonged sitting cause neck and back pain?
Yes, prolonged sitting with poor posture places excessive strain on the spine and muscles, leading to neck and back pain. FITCLINIC doctors recommend improving workplace ergonomics, taking regular breaks, using supportive chairs, and engaging in regular exercise to strengthen muscles and reduce spinal pressure.
3. Is massage therapy effective for relieving neck, back, and shoulder pain?
Yes, therapeutic massage can help reduce muscle tension, improve circulation, and alleviate pain. At FITCLINIC, this treatment is commonly used even in the absence of pain, as it helps stimulate the lymphatic system, eliminate toxins, and reduce inflammation.
4. How many sessions will I need to treat neck, back, or shoulder pain?
The number of sessions is determined on a case-by-case basis at FITCLINIC. It depends on the severity of the pain, the underlying cause, and the body’s response to treatment. Some patients experience relief after just one session, while others require a long-term treatment plan for sustainable results.
