Neck Pain Recovery in Minneapolis-St. Paul

If someone comes in to Evo Performance Rehab with neck pain, often they have been doing some stretches, getting chiropractic adjustments, or getting massages, but very seldom do they actually know what is wrong with their neck that it is so tight or so painful.

When we do the neurological search process and identify where the real dysfunctions are coming from, we may see someone with an extremely painful and restricted neck get complete, full range of motion within one session, even if our locations are in their shoulder or in their midback.

Full Range Of Motion For Neck

A recent exercise physiologist client presented with a severely limited range of motion, turning her head to the left. She also displayed a lack of range of motion through her rotator cuff. When we did the location process, her neck was fairly clear. And we found dysfunction in the areas of her infraspinatus and supraspinatus, two of her rotator cuff muscles.

When we worked to restore high-level communication between her brain and her shoulder muscles and rotator cuff, her neck was able to stop overcompensating and let go. Within the first treatment, she was able to move her shoulder better and had full range of motion again.

Avoiding Neck Surgery

Another example of this would be a construction industry professional who came to us with a severe disc herniation between C six and seven vertebrae in his neck. This man would have severe shooting pain down the back of his arm if he ever had to look upwards.

When we did the location process, we found locations in his shoulder blade, the teres minor, and the medial short head of his bicep. When we stimulated these areas to communicate more appropriately, he was able to look up with greatly reduced pain, even though nothing had changed in the structures of his neck.

From there, the man was able to completely avoid the surgery that had been planned to fuse the vertebrae in his neck. This was done by retraining the activation of muscles and resetting the balance and function of muscles and posture while moving and exercising. Needless to say, he was very happy about that.

Zavier Steward, Running Back - Ankle Rehab

Zavier is a talented Running Back, but recently had a knee surgery and a major ankle surgery. Zavier came to Evo Performance Rehab and is now far surpassed what he thought 100% would be for him and the function of his ankle.

After a fairly serious head on collision back in late December of 2025 . I found myself in need of some Physical Therapy. I just so happen to work out in the same location as Tyler at Evo Perfomance Rehab. I stopped in to speak with Tyler about my situation. After visiting with Tyler and him explaining how we might be able to work together to get me back to better. I was excited to get started. I had sever lower back pain to the point where id get stuck in precarious positions and id need assistance to get free. Movement in my neck was way low. My shoulder and scapula region were in constant pain. leaving little mobility in my right arm as well as repeated occurrence of tingling sensation and my arm going completely numb. I was unable to work my usual job as a carpenter and had to completely shift my life. Thanks to Tyler's knowledge and overall care he takes for his patients and his work. I am now able to move about a lot more freely. I'm no longer getting stuck, I can move my arm in ways that used to bring pain and cut shortness of breath with no hesitation at all now. I am also a lot stronger thanks to his approach and I feel set up to be injury free thanks to my new found strengths in places I had no idea I was lacking. If you're in need of rehabilitation work or feel you're lacking proper muscle connection and would like a better foundation for your overall health and well being. Don't hesitate and give Tyler at Evo Performance Rehab a call.
