Office Work Ruined Her Posture? Neck Pain Assessment & Recovery Plan

Marina came to ICAHT after struggling with chronic neck, shoulder, and lower back pain for nearly 10 years. She initially believed the problem started from carrying heavy bags at university, but after a full postural and movement assessment, a much deeper pattern became clear. In this session, we explore how desk posture, forward head position, rounded shoulders, joint restriction, muscular imbalance, and limited mobility can all contribute to persistent tension and pain. Through assessment, manual therapy, joint mobilisations, soft tissue release, and mobility advice, we break down not just where Marina’s pain is coming from—but why it keeps returning. One of the biggest takeaways from this session is that treatment alone often isn’t enough. Long-term relief usually comes from understanding the underlying mechanics and actively correcting the root cause. In this video we cover: • Common causes of chronic neck and shoulder tension • How posture affects spinal mechanics • Why forward head posture overloads the neck • The role of thoracic mobility and hip tightness • Why mobility work matters alongside strength training • Treatment techniques used at ICAHT If you regularly experience neck stiffness, shoulder tension, or back pain from desk work, this video may help you understand what’s really going on. - ICAHT is founded on the principles of true healthcare.
