Neck pain is described as pain in the neck region that may or may not radiate to both the upper limbs and that will last for at least one day.Poor posture causes abnormal muscle loading and muscle injury.It becomes a constant source of neck pain and instability. It reduces range of motion and weakens the shoulder and neck muscles. According to a population based survey the prevalence of lifetime neck pain ranges from 67% to 87%.~Trigger points cause myofascial pain syndrome which is among the leading cause of non-specific neck pain. Myofascial release technique (MRT) is often used to treat non-specific neck pain.Another therapy that focuses on myofascial work is Bowen therapy that follows a dynamic approach to release fascia and muscles. The technique involves very gentle cross fiber movements that are applied on fascia, muscles, tendons and viscera to induce the effect. The technique is applied at specific body regions following specific sequences with regular rest intervals that cause fascial stretching. The technique consists of slightly picking up muscles and then rolling the muscles to direct them toward a specific region of body. The rest periods help the body to integrate and absorb the effects of therapy. The sensory impulses caused by the Bowen therapy interact with nervous system and realign and correct the disturbed mechanisms.

Non-specific neck pain is the common cause of neck symptoms that is mainly due to mechanical causes, postural problem, depression, anxiety or occupational activities. Poor posture causes abnormal muscle loading and muscle injury
