Pain in the neck...literally!

Do you ever just wonder why things on our bodies have to give us fits?  I definitely do.  For over three weeks I've had problems with tension in my neck left 2 weeks right 1st week to where I can turn it or lift it.  I've historically made sure I lift weights a couple of times a week to keep the muscle in between my shoulders strong to keep from this happening.

Well, it's not helping right now.  Why?  Because of that nagging pain in my neck....STRESS!  Yep, amazing how it can affect our bodies and debilitate them.  I've been under a lot of pressure at work due to employees complaining about the changes that have come about by adding them to our city network.  Try to tell yourself to "stop worrying", "ha!"  that works until the next person comes an basically yells at ya.  No, thank goodness I'm past the eating thing when under stress, but have just shifted it apparently.

Sooo, short of spending another miserable weekend in pain, I'm going to give in and go to a chiropractor.  At this point, guess I can stand a few minutes of cracking and popping for some relief.

Today's lesson is....TRY NOT TO LET STRESS DRAG YOU DOWN.  I'm going to try some yoga tonight!

I know exactly what you mean! All my tension goes to my neck as well. I have used Debbie Sieber's Total Body Solution several times! The stretches are so good for neck and back. Hope you're feeling better!

Thanks Christie! That's exactly what I did. I pulled TBS out and have been trying faithfully do it weekly. Preventative medicine.
