Where appropriate, we will make an application to your Primary Care Trust (PCT) for NHS funding. If you are not eligible for NHS Funding or your PCT declines funding, then we would be happy to treat you as a 'self funded' patient.
The main symptom of tightness in the muscles of the upper back and neck is aching discomfort in the upper back and neck area with diminished range of motion of the neck along with tenderness around the neck and shoulder blades.
Stress can create muscle tension in the postural muscles of the neck and low back which leads to stiffness and soreness in the tense regions. Stretches, warm compresses, good ergonomics, and an active lifestyle can help minimize the symptoms. Helpful? 2 people found this helpful.
