Comprehensive Therapy to Maximize Your Recovery
At Premier Performance and PT, we understand the impact that neck degenerative disc disease can have on your daily life. Whether you're experiencing persistent neck pain, limited mobility, or other symptoms, we're here to help. Our team of dedicated physical therapists specializes in providing personalized care and effective treatment strategies for neck DDD.
Understanding Neck Degenerative Disk Disease
Neck degenerative disc disease (DDD) is a common condition characterized by the breakdown of discs in the cervical spine, leading to pain, stiffness, and potential nerve compression. These discs act as cushions between the vertebrae, providing flexibility and shock absorption to the spine. However, with age or injury, these discs can degenerate, causing discomfort and reduced mobility.
Symptoms can include:
Neck Pain: Persistent or intermittent discomfort in the neck region, often worsening with movement or prolonged sitting/standing.
Radiating Pain: Pain that extends to the shoulders, arms, and even hands, sometimes accompanied by numbness or tingling.
Stiffness: Reduced range of motion in the neck, making it challenging to turn or tilt the head.
Muscle Weakness: Weakness in the arms or hands due to nerve compression.
Headaches: Frequent headaches, especially originating from the base of the skull.

“This is the place to be! One place for all your PT needs! My experiece with Dr. Greg has been absolutely amazing and with outstanding results. His knowledge and expertise to treat patients is unmatchable. I recommend PPT to everyone - young or old.” -Zainab
“Greg is awesome! I was going to PT at the traditional PT clinics, and would end up being there for much longer than necessary, would get different PTs session to session, and leave feeling underwhelmed. Greg on the other hand would be with you the entire time. He knows his stuff, is thorough, has solid equipment, and is easy to communicate with. He also understands that everyone has different goals and sports/hobbies, so he’s flexible when it comes to meeting your needs. Will be coming back here anytime something in my body breaks!” -Robbie
