Carter Physiotherapy uses unique hands-on physical therapy for significant neck pain relief in Austin, TX... even for those who've tried multiple other treatments with no lasting improvement.

Frustrated by neck pain that keeps coming back—or just won’t go away?

Whether it’s nagging stiffness after long workdays, or sharp pain that flares up when you try to work out, we know how disruptive neck pain can be to your life. And if you're like most of our patients, you're not the type to sit still or let pain dictate your lifestyle.

At Carter Physiotherapy in Austin, we help active professionals get back to the workouts, sports, and activities they love—without pills, injections, or surgery—through personalized, hands-on physical therapy.

Why You’re Still in Pain (Even After “Doing All the Right Things”)

You've probably tried stretching, heat packs, maybe even some physical therapy in the past... so why does your neck still hurt?

The answer is often in what’s being missed.
Most clinics take a cookie-cutter approach: some machines, a few generic exercises, and a therapist juggling multiple patients at once.

That’s not how we operate at Carter PT.

We take a different approach:

• 1-on-1, full-hour sessions with a Doctor of Physical Therapy.
• Highly skilled hands-on manual therapy to address the true root of your pain.
• A custom plan that evolves as your body heals—so you're not stuck doing the same basic stretches for weeks.

Whether Your neck Pain is New or Chronic, We Can Help

• Just started hurting after a long car trip or sitting at the computer?
• Dealing with off-and-on pain for years?
• Had an MRI that didn’t show anything “fixable” but you still feel limited?
• Had an MRI and the surgeon, wants to operate but you don’t want to have surgery?

No matter where you’re starting, we specialize in helping people like you get real results—quickly and naturally …. And we’ve done so for thousands of patients since 2010, like Jennifer:

“As someone who has dealt with chronic neck pain and shoulder tightness I can say that this experience has been life changing. I have used everything from acupuncture to message therapy to medications and my therapist at Carter PT is the first person to ever finally allow me to experience some progress in my healing and get movement back in my neck. I just can’t say enough amazing things about this practice. I will continue to use this practice and enjoy the healing process.” ~ Jennifer J – Austin TX

Frequently Asked Neck Pain Questions

What kind of therapy do you do for neck pain?

We use a combination of advanced manual therapy, dry needling, therapeutic exercise, and movement re-training. Each plan is tailored specifically to the individual, based on a detailed assessment.

How soon will I feel relief?

Many patients feel significant relief after just 1–2 sessions. That said, our goal is not just short-term relief, but long-term results and getting you to 100% of your goals. 

What if I’ve already tried PT and Chiropractic, and nothing worked?

We hear this a lot. Our full hour 1-on-1 treatments, and hands-on approach is very different from the standard PT and chiropractic models. The level of personalization and care we offer often leads to breakthroughs where other treatments have failed. Here's just one of hundreds of stories of someone who found relief with us after other clinics could not help: 

"Seven years ago, I started to experience neck and upper back pain resulting from my work responsibilities. I spent thousands of dollars on chiropractors who lessened the pain, but their results never lasted. Pain became a constant companion and I learned to ignore it most of the time. However, activities like driving, exercising, and computer work would make it flare up so that I couldn’t ignore it and back I would go to the chiropractor for temporary relief.

I was shocked when a friend suggested physical therapy! I thought that was just for old people or those recovering from surgery. However, when I found Cárter Physiotherapy, I realized that PT is for anyone who experiences chronic pain.

I started PT 3 months ago and today I am 95% pain free!"
