How to Ease Stress and Pain with Self-Massage Techniques

Regular massage has many benefits for our body health. However, massage services by professional massage therapists are still expensive for most New Yorkers. But you can use some self-massaging techniques to treat pain in the head, neck, or feet. A tennis ball, foam roller, or even just your hands can be the first step to pain relief. Below we will teach you how to reduce the neck pain, which usually happened for individuals who worked too long at office.

Neck pain is often caused by overuse and poor posture. This can happen from everyday activities, like hunching over a laptop or phone, or reading in bed without adequate neck support.

If your neck feels tight and painful, try this therapeutic self-massage technique. It may also be helpful if you have a knot in your neck.

Steps to follow

  • Lower your shoulders away from your ears. Straighten your neck and back.
  • Locate the painful areas on your neck. Press firmly with your fingers.
  • Gently move your fingers in circular motions. Repeat in the opposite direction.
  • Continue for 3 to 5 minutes.
