Re: Neck pain, clicking in neck, stiffness

It's probably related to your work. I treat many dental hygienists, dentists and hairdressers who all have similar complaints. Sounds to me like a joint problem, massage will help but probably only temporarily. Go see a chiropractor, the joints of your spine are locking. Adjustment of the spine will free them up and relieve the pressure on them. This in turn will improve mobility, and the pain and spasm should diminish. It's a mechanical problem, medication will offer relief but won't correct the problem, same with massage.
