Neck pain | causes, symptoms, treatment

Urban Massage and Wellness is your trusted destination for effective neck pain relief. If you're struggling with neck pain, we understand the impact it can have on your daily life. Let us guide you through what neck pain is, its causes, common symptoms, and how our expert massage therapy treatments can help alleviate its effects.

Neck pain refers to discomfort or stiffness in the muscles, joints, or other structures of the neck. It can occur due to various factors, including poor posture, muscle strain, whiplash injuries, arthritis, herniated discs, or underlying medical conditions. Regardless of the cause, neck pain can lead to reduced mobility, headaches, muscle tension, and even radiating pain to the shoulders and arms.

Identifying the symptoms of neck pain is crucial in understanding its impact on your well-being. Common symptoms may include:
 

1. Persistent or intermittent pain in the neck region.
2. Stiffness, limited range of motion, or difficulty turning the head.
3. Muscle spasms or tightness.
4. Headaches, often originating from the neck.
5. Numbness or tingling sensations in the neck, shoulders, or arms.
6. Fatigue or discomfort that worsens with prolonged sitting or repetitive movements.
