The area of signs and symptoms originating from the cervical spine can present and radiate into the head, neck, jaw, chest, upper back, shoulder, arm, wrist, fingers and rarely into the low back and lower extremities.
These signs and symptoms include pain, weakness, stiffness, dead arm feeling, pins and needles, numbness, and clumsiness.
A formal physical therapy assessment is needed to verify whether the signs and symptoms are coming from the cervical spine or other sources.
Our physical therapists will assess your condition and design the correct treatment plan. Duffy & Bracken Physical Therapy, Wellness and Fitness takes patients beyond therapy.
