Neck Pain

Struggling with Neck Pain?

Do you experience neck pain that makes it difficult to turn your head?
Has stiffness or discomfort impacted your daily activities?
Are you frustrated with treatments that only provide short-term relief?
Do you want a lasting solution to restore neck mobility and function?

If you answered yes, you’re not alone. At RX Physical Therapy in Wayne, NJ, Charles Ferruzza, PT, DPT, is here to help you overcome neck pain and regain an active, pain-free lifestyle.

Why Neck Pain Can Be So Disruptive

Your neck plays a crucial role in supporting your head, maintaining posture, and facilitating movement. When pain or stiffness sets in, everyday tasks—like driving, working at a computer, or even sleeping—can become difficult. Ignoring neck pain can lead to chronic discomfort, tension headaches, and long-term mobility issues.

But you don’t have to live with it—there are effective, natural solutions available.

Common Approaches to Neck Pain That May Not Work

Many people try these methods, but they often don’t provide lasting relief:

Resting Too Much: While short-term rest may help, prolonged inactivity can lead to further stiffness and weakness.
Applying Ice or Heat: This may offer temporary relief but won’t address the root cause.
Relying on Pain Medication: Medications may mask symptoms but won’t fix the underlying problem.
Ignoring the Pain: Hoping it will go away on its own can lead to worsening symptoms and reduced mobility.

If you’ve tried these and are still struggling, it’s time for a different approach.

Why Rest Alone Won’t Solve Neck Pain

Resting without addressing muscle tightness, poor posture, or joint dysfunction won’t provide lasting relief. You need a targeted treatment plan that gets to the root of your pain.

What People Say About RX Physical Therapy

Adult Athlete -Former Patient “Before finding Charles I was in a state of constant pain. I had been dealing with hip pain for a little over a year and it was really taking a toll. It really debilitated my fitness, sleep, motivation, and confidence. I was in and out of the doctor’s office…..my pcp, ortho doc who actually recommended surgery or reduce physical activity, and several physical therapists, but none could provide relief. When I found Charles, I was at my lowest, based on previous experiences but also hopeful given a recommendation from a close friend who had great results. My biggest goal of course, pain relief, but running and squatting as well. Within weeks of my first visit, I had finally found relief! Charles created a great trust by demonstrating not only his ability to diagnose my pain but also address issues surrounding what was creating my symptoms. Now I’m running, squatting and pain free while exceeding all my physical goals that I didn’t think I’d ever be able to achieve.”

Long Snapper- Chicago Bears “Throughout my 8 year NFL career I have had multiple injuries and as a result I have been treated by many physical therapists. Charles is by far one of the best I’ve ever worked with. His overall attention to detail and knowledge of the body is impressive. He helped me recover from a torn ACL in a safe and effective manner. As a patient it was important to me that my therapist had my best interests in mind and that’s exactly what Charles did. He knows when and how to work a client hard but more importantly, he knew when to pull back, yet still progress and use effective treatments. I would highly recommend using Charles for any physical therapy needs.”
