Understanding Neck and Shoulder Pain
Chronic neck and shoulder pain can be caused by a number of conditions, including muscle tension, tension headaches, and stress. Symptoms that often accompany neck and shoulder pain include:
- Limited range of motion
- Discomfort or pain in the neck, upper back, shoulders, and head
- Muscle stiffness and spasms

Neck and shoulder pain can be so uncomfortable that it’s difficult to concentrate on work and other responsibilities.

The good news is that massage therapy can help manage neck and shoulder pain or even eliminate it altogether.
