A member asked:

My cervical x-ray shows reversal of cervical lordosis, and my mri shows mild cervical kyphosis. is physical therapy successful in treating mild cervical kyphosis?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Absolutely: Physical therapy can play amazing roles in stabilizing cervical problems. Massage and acupuncture can help pain and stiffness, but PT will improve range of motion, strength, and posture. Excellent choice on your part.
