How to manage chronic neck pain

There are many of us living with chronic neck pain due to long hours at work, accidents and poor posture.
1.   Get a deep tissue massage -
The muscles in your neck are imbalanced, which means they are tight and weak and probably have knots. There are over 15 muscles in your neck to help balance and give you Range of Movement. Massage will help release the tension through stretching and deep work. Also if your re experiencing headaches it could be through muscles tension.

2.      Hot and Cold Therapy -
General rule is:  Heat on tight muscles with dull pain as much as you can stand.
Cold only to bring inflammation down, Only 10 to 15 minutes and then follow with heat.
For injuries follow the RICE method (rest, ice, compression and elevation)

3.  Posture -
Having correct posture means that your muscles are relaxed and not flexed. You have stabilizing muscles that keep you upright and your spine straight, but if they are weak and non-stabilizing muscles are working too hard then you will develop chronic pain and knots in those muscles.
