Don’t wait if you are in pain. Double check your posture and your backpack load and carrying style to reduce any back or neck pain. If pain persists, seek help while the pain is still acute (in 1-2 weeks) instead of waiting until the pain is unbearable and chronic. Our manual physical therapists at MotionWorks Physical Therapy are a great resource and are able to successfully treat back pain, neck pain, and headaches in patients of all ages.
