How it works

Reduces local muscle tension and triggers points in the cervical musculature. Stimulates endogenous opioid and serotonin systems. May modulate central pain processing in chronic neck pain.

Benefit may not be durable without ongoing treatment or combination with exercise. Best evidence for chronic mechanical neck pain — less clear for radiculopathy or cervicogenic headache.
