Mostly stretching my neck and me doing neck exercises. I have a herniation, arthritis and a bone spur in my neck.

Yeah, that seems to be the downside of PT...not addressing the structures that support the neck, which are in the upper and mid back. Stretching often feels good but it can further irritate inflamed nerves. Strengthening the upper and mid back muscles and gentle movement helps a lot. A lot of PTs also order chin tucks which can make things worse.
