Duration/Prediction
In the case of a non-chronic cervical spine syndrome (symptoms that do not last longer than three months), the prognosis is very favorable.In order to ensure a positive course of treatment, it is essential that the person concerned becomes active himself and regularly performs the exercises learned in physiotherapy. This process will take a few weeks to months, depending on how long the symptoms have been manifesting themselves and how good the body perception of the individual is. If the incorrect posture that was the trigger for the cervical spine syndrome remains, relapses with the known complaints will occur again and again. For this reason, athletes should undergo a precise movement analysis and factors that promote poor posture must be switched off at the workplace to ensure a lasting positive outcome.
