To ask who I need to see for my tense shoulders and upper back with a bit of a hunchback.

I have just realised that I have a bit of a hunchback. My shoulders sort of roll forward. Lately I have been feeling really tense in my upper back area / neck / shoulders and I'm sure the whole hunchback thing isn't helping either.

So I was thinking of going for a massage to loosen my muscles up but then I came across osteopathy for back issues and then I was wondering should I go to a sports massager or should I try something else?!

I love my physio, but have the best results from my exercise physiologist. He's a cross between a personal trainer and physio. Looks at how the way you move causes pain then you do exercises to fix it. I was in bad pain for years and this guy has me really mobile. I still see physio and work with both - I'll report to the EP physio assessment, he'll check range of movement then we do exercises that work on the problem.
