Neck Stiffness, Shoulder Tension or Upper Back Discomfort?
Does your neck feel stiff after a long day at work? Are your shoulders constantly tense? Does upper back discomfort make it difficult to sit comfortably, turn your head or enjoy everyday activities?
Whether your symptoms are recent or have been troubling you for some time, understanding your individual situation is an important first step.
At FASIORA Performance & Soft Tissue Clinic, we provide assessment-led soft tissue therapy for people experiencing neck, shoulder and upper back discomfort.
Based within Park View Medical Clinic in Middlesbrough, our approach combines individual assessment, appropriate hands-on treatment and practical aftercare.

Treatment That Starts With Understanding You
Treatment That Starts With Understanding You
Neck and shoulder discomfort can affect much more than your working day.
You might experience:
Stiffness when turning your head or looking over your shoulder
Muscular tension after prolonged desk work
Discomfort around the shoulders or shoulder blades
Upper back tightness during everyday activities
Muscular soreness following physical work or exercise
Restricted or uncomfortable shoulder movement
These symptoms can have different causes. Not all neck or shoulder pain is muscular, and posture alone does not explain every problem.
At FASIORA, we don't assume that tight muscles are always the cause of your discomfort.
We take time to understand your symptoms, how they affect your life and what you want to achieve.
