Fight Stress But Also Let Go By Way Of A Fun, Relaxing Neck Massage
Massage therapists report that neck massages are some of the most common they perform ..
. a fact that's not really surprising when you stop to think about that area of your body. The most obvious contributor to neck pain is - as we all know - that unavoidable stress. Whenever we suffer from stress and tension, the neck can suffer most - in the form of pain and swelling - very quickly. And when that happens, the pain is felt not only in our neck, but in our head, back and shoulders as well. The good news is that a neck massage is a proven treatment for the pain and swelling brought on by stress.Although foremost in our minds today, we know that stress is not the only cause of pain in our neck, back and shoulders ... conditions such as muscular tension, arthritis, injury and trauma can contribute to it as well. Carrying a heavy object, sitting in the same position for long periods of time (such as at your workplace) and sleeping in an awkward position can multiply the effects of this pain as well. But all can be treated - and in many cases, even eliminated - through neck massage therapy through a program custom tailored just for you.
You may not be sure that the pain you are feeling in a particular area is a result of strain on your neck. So how can you be sure? Below are some characteristics of neck pain that can help you identify its source and be treated very effectively through neck massage therapy.
* Stiffness that affects the neck muscles;
* A radiating pain to the shoulders or between the shoulder blades;
* A one-sided or double-sided headache which produces pain in the arm, neck or head;
* Tense muscles in the neck which feel hard and sore;
* Pain at the base of the skull accompanied by weakness in the arms, shoulders and neck;
* Prickly or tingling sensation in the fingers and/or arms.
Neck massage therapy has been very successful in the treatment of neck and shoulder pain by providing the following benefits.
* A neck massage can be performed at any time and any place, making it a convenient option.
* Relief is felt in a relatively short period of time.
* A neck massage relieves pain in the head, shoulders and back.
* The process leaves you feeling totally relaxed, rejuvenated and energized.
* The stress of everyday life is eliminated by a simple, affordable neck massage.
* Circulatory problems and knots in your neck and shoulders are massaged away.
Sometimes, the source of your pain is not actually where you feel that pain. Pressure in your arms or shoulders can emerge disguised as a headache. Neck massage therapy brings fast, inexpensive aid to the area where the pain is located and to its source. So not only does it target the pain, but the area causing it as well.
When seeking a professional to perform your neck massage, only consider trained massage therapists; if performed incorrectly at the wrong time and place, it can result in pain or discomfort in other parts of the body. And avoid the DIY at-home massage equipment at all costs ... it can be more hurtful than helpful in your efforts to remove annoying neck and shoulder pain.
