Problems in the lower neck can radiate to the shoulders or upper arm regions. Pain in the high cervical region of the neck can lead to headaches or other symptoms such as dizziness or even reduced range of motion.
Heat therapy is a simple and effective method that can offer pain relief for neck and shoulder tension and mechanical pain. Heat plasters will provide intense lasting heat and will stick conveniently on the neck and shoulders. Plenty of rest can also alleviate neck and back pain.
HEAT PLASTERS RELEASE HEAT TO RELIEVE PAIN AND RELAX YOUR MUSCLESSelf-medication with muscle-relaxants and anti-inflammatory drugs should not exceed a few days. If pain radiates to the lower arm for more than a few days, it is recommended to consult a doctor.
Work out in order to counterbalance your monotonous or non-use of muscle groups in the neck.
