Neck Pain Physical Therapy in Overland Park, KS

Your Neck Can Fix Itself.
We Show It How.

In our 60-minute Neck Performance Evaluation & Treatment, you’ll leave with answers, hands-on treatment, and a real plan to fix your neck pain.

This Is For You If…

  • Your neck feels stiff, tight, or sore – making everyday tasks a struggle.
  • You feel pain, tingling, or numbness traveling into your shoulder, arm, or hand.
  • Neck pain flares up with lifting, overhead work, or certain exercises in the gym.
  • Neck pain builds throughout the workday and you’re paying for it by the evening.
  • You get headaches that seem to start at the base of your skull or the back of your neck.
  • You’ve tried massage, a new pillow, or stretching – and the relief never lasts.

What’s Included in Your Neck Performance Evaluation & Treatment.

This isn’t a generic PT appointment. At our Overland Park clinic, you’ll get a thorough neck assessment, hands-on treatment, and a clear plan forward – all focused on fixing the root cause of your neck pain, not just managing it.

  • Strength and Mobility Testing
    We test the specific strength and mobility patterns that contribute to neck pain – so we know what your body can handle today and what needs to be built up.
  • Functional Movement Assessment
    We watch how you move – turning your head, reaching overhead, pressing, and pulling – to connect the dots between your movement and your symptoms.
  • Hands-On Treatment
    Depending on what we find, treatment may include dry needling, cupping, or joint and soft tissue work targeted at what’s actually driving your symptoms.
  • Your Personalized Plan
    We put everything together into a clear, actionable plan specific to your body and your goals. No generic advice. No cookie-cutter exercises. A real path forward starting from day one.

Common Neck Pain Conditions We Treat.

Neck pain shows up differently for everyone. Whether you’ve been given a diagnosis or just know something isn’t right – we can help. Here are some of the most common conditions we see at our Overland Park clinic.

General Neck Pain & Stiffness

That tight, achy neck that won’t loosen up. Or the stiffness that makes turning your head a chore. We find what’s driving it and build your neck’s strength and mobility so it stops coming back.

Pinched Nerve
(Cervical Radiculopathy)

Pain, tingling, numbness, or weakness traveling from your neck into your shoulder, arm, or hand. A pinched nerve can be alarming, but most cases respond well to the right conservative care. We identify what’s irritating the nerve and build a plan to calm it down and keep it that way.

Disc-Related Neck Pain

A bulging or herniated disc in your neck can feel like a scary diagnosis, but most people improve without surgery. We help you understand what’s actually going on, reduce your pain, and rebuild your neck’s capacity to handle daily life and training.

Neck-Related Headaches

Headaches that start at the base of your skull or the back of your neck are often driven by the neck itself. If medication only takes the edge off, it may be time to address the source. We assess your neck and upper back to find what’s contributing and treat it directly.

Whiplash & Neck Injuries

Whether it was a car accident, a fall, or a sports collision, neck injuries can linger long after the initial event. We guide you through a structured recovery that restores motion, strength, and confidence in your neck.

Neck Pain From Desk Work

Long hours at a computer or behind the wheel don’t have to mean a sore neck by the end of the day. The issue usually isn’t your posture – it’s that your neck hasn’t been built to tolerate the demands you put on it. We change that.

What People in Our Community Are Saying

Real results from motivated people across Overland Park, Leawood, Prairie Village, and surrounding areas who refused to “just live” with pain.

I was a mess. I had pain just walking across the room. Pain in my knee and back kept me from swimming and riding my bike—the two things I love doing and that have helped keep me healthy and active. Yesterday, I did the swimming and biking portion of a team triathlon. Need I say more? Josh at TrueFix was a master therapist. He put a game plan together and worked with me to get it done. If you’re looking for a physical therapist, you owe it to yourself to give the folks at TrueFix a try.

I went to Josh for preventative care and coaching as I prepared for my first ultra-marathon. The strength training routine and troubleshooting he provided during our in-office visits kept me injury free from my earliest miles to post-event. Josh was always available to answer questions and went the extra mile in providing solutions. Their entire staff is friendly, knowledgeable, and there to cheer on progress. Whether recovering from an injury or trying to take your physical goals to the next level, I can't recommend TrueFix enough!

I had been to other physical therapists for past injuries and had mediocre experiences with what felt like a very generic rehab plan that checked insurance boxes. This place focuses on the bigger picture (a foundation of health with my health/physical goals in mind) and has helped me stay strong and pain free to continue doing the things I care about, from home renovations to my most recent triathlon.

At the beginning of the year I thought I might actually need to give up running, or that I would need surgery or a ton of time off to do so again. I went to Josh though and he identified the issues and set up a plan to address it. I could tell Josh knew the science and was highly qualified but I also trusted him because of how he could relate as an athlete/fellow runner. It took some time, patience, and lots of work under Josh’s guidance, but 7 months later and I have run more mileage than ever before, feeling zero issues now with something that had been nagging for years. I am so grateful that I can go to Josh and for what he has done for my running!

I have struggled with persistent shoulder pain since high school, and after just one session with Eric, my shoulder felt better and had more mobility than it had in years. Eric and his colleagues are personable, attentive, and kind. It is clear that the practice as a whole truly cares about their clients, and wants to help them achieve their goals. I would highly recommend them to anyone in need of physical therapy!

8 years ago, I had ACL and meniscus root repair surgery on my knee. The years that followed were a struggle. I suffered from discomfort, stiffness, and pain not being able to run or compete the way I wanted to. In 2025, I started working with Eric Vargas and I can confidently say, this is the best my knee has felt since surgery. We started with incremental wins, working on mobility and strength. As we continued to build momentum, I pushed the knee squatting, jumping, and ultimately running (something I was not comfortable with for years). Now, I am comfortable running 3 miles on a regular basis. Eric’s expertise and approach gave me the confidence I was looking for to reach my goals. Thank you Eric and TrueFix for leading me on this journey. Pumped to keep improving. Let’s go!

I totally trust Dr. McNiel. He's so knowledgeable, calm, kind, and listens asking all the right questions. I had bad neck and back pain from sleeping weird that wouldn't go away. I waited longer than I should have before asking for help. The day after seeing him, it already had improved. He gave me some stretches to do at home to continue the improvement. Highly recommend.

Dr. McNiel at TrueFix is great! I’m a fitness instructor and had been dealing with low back pain for years, and not much helped until I started working with him. He helped figure out what was likely causing the pain and put together a plan that really worked. I feel so much better now—can’t recommend him and TrueFix enough!

Above and Beyond Care After struggling with tennis elbow that kept me from my weightlifting routine, I cannot say enough about the exceptional care I received from my physical therapist Josh. From our very first session, Josh demonstrated not just professional expertise, but genuine concern for my recovery and long-term health. What sets him apart is his comprehensive approach. Rather than simply treating the immediate pain, they took time to understand my fitness goals and how weightlifting fits into my life. Each exercise was explained clearly, with patient demonstrations delivered daily in my email after sessions in person. Most impressively, they went well beyond treating just my elbow. They offered valuable insights about overall mobility work, nutrition tips to support tissue healing. These additional elements have become integral parts of my health regimen and have improved my overall well-being. Thanks to their expertise and dedication, I'm back to lifting weights pain-free, with better form and a more balanced approach than before my injury. I'm deeply grateful for a physical therapist who treats patients as whole people rather than just injuries to fix.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
