You can use quick fixes like stretches, painkillers and cold or hot compresses but the only thing that will make a permanent difference is a lifestyle change. If your neck is strained from sitting at a desk all day, try getting up and moving around every 20 minutes to keep your neck and shoulders mobile. Try sleeping on your back with a pillow underneath your thighs as this helps relax your spine and relieves pressure on your neck.

What will really help, however, is booking an appointment to see a chiropractor. Here at Falcon Health, we have a team of specialists who can help with hands-on techniques, rehabilitation programmes and bespoke plans to help you feel great. Not only will we treat your neck pain, but we will also ensure it doesn’t come back by taking preventative measures and giving you expert advice on lifestyle changes. Using chiropractic help is a non-invasive way to relieve tension in your neck.
