Tension in back and shoulders is excruciating!!!!?!
Question: Hi, i have anxiety and I work at a computer all day, funnnn stuff.
Im wondering if anyone knows any DIY methods to help deal with the extreme tension I have in my neck, upper back, and shoulders??
I've tried hot showers, cold packs, getting a deep tissue massage...
I went to get a massage on just my head neck and shoulders, and omg...it hurt so much, because things are so tense back there.
Tilting my head down (chin to chest) hurts, and when I got my massage, the therapist was trying to work the lactic acid out of my muscles in my neck, and it felt like they were pulling the muscles right from the base of my skull. It hurt A LOT.
Hellllllllllllllllp :*(

go to physical therapy. they will do DTM, but they will be better at it than a massage therapist. also, they'll do other stuff for your neck. if you can get a home tens unit, that will help too.
