Struggling with Neck Pain?

If you’re experiencing neck, you might be wondering:

“Why is this happening to me?”
“Why am I still suffering after six months or more?”


Many people believe their neck pain will vanish on its own, hoping that one day they’ll wake up pain-free. Yet, months later, they often find the pain has only worsened.

Does This Sound Like You?

A common scenario at our physio clinic involves patients visiting their doctors, being advised to rest and take painkillers. However, six weeks later, they find themselves back at the doctor’s office, in no better condition, often with a new prescription for stronger medication.

Has This Happened to You?

You might be confused due to conflicting advice from various sources. Perhaps you think the pain is in your neck, but the issue actually lies in your shoulder. This confusion often leads to procrastination and accepting pain as a normal part of life.

Is This How You Feel?

If you’re currently dealing with neck pain, here are seven reasons why it might be lasting longer than it should:

  • You thought it would go away on its own, but it didn’t.
  • You went to the doctor, who advised rest and painkillers, but the pain returned once the medication wore off.
  • A family member or friend told you that neck and shoulder pain is normal with age, so you accepted it.
  • You sought help from other healthcare professionals or physios, but nothing seemed to help.
  • You’ve tried using heat pads or TENS units, but they didn’t alleviate the pain.
  • You believed resting would help, but the pain still irritates you daily.
  • You tried getting massages, which felt nice but didn’t provide long-term relief.

If any of these situations sound familiar, we’d love to help you.

A MESSAGE FROM ATHLONE’S LEADING PHYSICAL THERAPIST KIERAN MCNALLY

If you are suffering from dull or sharp back pain and do not know what to do, then this guide is for you.

Let me guess, you were told to rest, take pain medication, exercise but none of those actually helped your situation. In fact, those just made things worse.

People who suffer from back pain or sciatica often get fooled by all the bad information out there: Should I bend? Do I have a bulging disk? Is it safe to exercise? Will I make things worse?

For the past 6 years, I have made it my life’s mission to work and help people aged 35 to 65+ in the Athlone and surrounding areas find relief from acute AND chronic back pain using physio, neurology, movement and pain education to achieve this. I have come to realise is that this vicious cycle that rest and medications will do absolutely NOTHING to get to the root cause of most types of chronic back pain issues… no matter what you have been told.

It is easy to get deceived by numerous misconceptions such as those that claim that wear and tear is a bad thing and that back pain is just merely a part of the aging process. These assertions are false and have no scientific research to back it up, pun intended.

Thus, I sat down and wrote this simple easy-to-follow and straight to the point guide on how to end back pain once and for all without the use of medication or surgery.

Suffering from back pain, or even just lower back pain is no joke. It can really get in the way of a person’s day to day life. Imagine getting up with back pain in the morning or suffering back pain between the shoulder blades is just unbearable. It can affect simple tasks such as walking, driving or going out with your friends. Even your job or career may suffer.

So do not let your back pain dictate what you can and can’t do.

Wishing you all the best,
