Recurring neck pain - how to treat it?

I did a yoga pose in a zoom class 2 years ago and ever since I have had recurring neck pain (the pose was Purvotanasana). It hurts most when I turn my head up. It's a pain in my upper spine/neck region and reallllly hurts. It gets worse with computer use, the cold etc.
I want to get it treated but I'm a bit overwhelmed by the options for treatment. It all seems alternative rather than conventional medicine.
Chiropractics near me have amazing reviews but I watched neck adjustments on Youtube and they look absolutely brutal. I am not totally sure if they work or just temporarily work by releasing nitrogen oxide from the area.
Osteopathy: I am not entirely sure what this is, even.
Physiotherapy: probably the most respected by Western medicine. Is it just doing exercises/getting sports massages?
