Are your neck muscles are so tight you could strum them like guitar strings. But this song is definitely not music to your ears. With the right simple steps, your tensed-up muscles can start whistling a happier tune. Trigger points, they are areas where your muscles have tensed up and refused to let go. Trigger points form as a result of repetitive activity. That might be something like swinging a tennis racket over and over, or – for many of us – hunching over our desks and pounding the keyboard day in and day out.
Sometimes the actual problem is not really in your neck even though you think it is. Sometimes it's in another area of the body and the pain is referring to the hip. This is why having a skilled massage therapist knowledgeable in referral pain is important.
