Neck Massage Therapy Services
Whether you perform manual labor, play a sport regularly or work in an office setting, neck pain can become an issue due to one cause or another. Many people experience neck pain and it can range from a minor annoyance to a major factor which prevents a person from living life to the fullest. If you’re experiencing neck pain, there is help available through massage therapy.
I am a certified massage therapist serving the East Bay, and it’s my passion to help people find relaxation and relief through massage treatment. I specialize in many techniques, and over the years I have worked with people experiencing neck pain and have found massage therapy to be effective in alleviating neck pain both immediately following a massage and in the long term when a client receives regular treatment.
In the sections to follow I will answer a few common questions regarding neck pain and how massage therapy can relieve it.
What causes neck pain?
The neck is home to the top vertebrae in your spine, a network of nerves, very strong muscles and other tissues which work together to move and support your head. Because there are so many elements which make up the neck region and they all are under regular pressure, it’s no surprise neck pain is so pervasive. When muscles tighten, nerves get pinched, or anything becomes strained in the neck, pain is sure to follow.
How can massage therapy help?
Massage therapy can help you feel immediate relief from neck pain by removing knots from muscles, promoting better blood flow and helping you to relax. When performed by a qualified therapist, massages can provide lasting relief for many of the causes of neck pain as well. Depending on your needs, any number of massage techniques can provide the best results. I offer a full catalog of services, including Swedish massage, hot stone therapy, acupressure, shiatsu massage and much more. When I work with a client, I take time to assess their needs and create a plan to help them thrive by using one or more of these proven techniques.
Why choose massage therapy for neck pain?
Many people experience neck pain, and the way you choose to treat it has a big impact on how long it will linger, how intense the pain will be and the likelihood of it returning. Your first thought when you feel neck pain might be to try to find a quick relief method like pain medication, but this won’t get to the root cause and cause unwanted side effects. Massage therapy is a natural method of healing, and can provide both immediate and lasting relief. Rather than trying to find a temporary solution, massage therapy aims to correct the root cause of your pain and can help you get back to pursuing your passions.
