Are you frustrated with the pain between your shoulder blades into the neck? You think it just muscle tension because that is where you “hold your Stress.” You decided to go get a massage, but the pain returns within a few hours to a few days.
Why does this happen?
It is because the muscle tightness is the symptom of something else going on.
As time goes on you notice that you are having more difficulty with sitting and working due to the pain, that you might have some limitation with turning as you are looking for cars coming while driving.
You then decide to go to a doctor, maybe there is something else the doctors can help with.
They either send you with some medications to help with the pain or send you to get imaging. They use big words after the imaging such as arthritis, degenerative changes, bone spurs, herniated discs.
You start to get fearful that you are going to have to do a dangerous surgery or worse that you are going to have to live with this pain. Let me tell you.
