HEADACHE, NECK PAIN AND THE OFFICE WORKER
We seem to be on our phones or computers constantly throughout the day. Headaches and neck pain are one of the most common complaints I hear from sedentary-type workers or people peering down at their phones. Neck tension headaches can include signs of :
Stiffness across the upper shoulders
Restricted range of motion in the neck
Pain in the base of the skull radiating to behind the eyes
Lightheaded/ “off” feeling through the day
Vision strain and blurriness
Use these computer station set up ideas to prevent increased symptoms. If you work on a laptop, consider these tips:

Consider a daily neck stretch routine and schedule therapeutic massages to treat your pain and improve your quality of life.
