So let’s talk about neck pain.  This is the number one issue I see in my clinical practice, even more common that back problems.  And I’m not alone; just about every bodywork therapist I know would rank neck pain highest in their list of client problems.

Why is this so?  Well, the simple answer is that our necks are vulnerable to injury.  Heads are really quite heavy and they are balanced via the neck on our shoulders rather like a big flower on the top of a stem. That’s why sudden violent movements like the so-called whiplash injury in a car crash strain neck muscles severely.  But far more often we hurt ourselves by awkward head positioning.
