They work mainly with pressure, friction and manipulation of the muscles and other soft tissues with the fingers and hands. As a result, an intense relaxation effect and general physical well-being is obtained.

In more severe and advanced cases, there may be numbness in the cervical region and reduced strength in the arms and legs.<\/p><p>Neurological symptoms can occur due to nerve compression within the spine, caused by herniated discs or by stenosis (narrowing) of the cervical canal.<\/p><p><strong>Causes of Neck Pain:<\/strong><\/p><p>&#8211; Muscle discomfort arising from trauma, strain, or poor posture;<br \/>&#8211; Torticollis;<br \/>&#8211; Neurological changes due to herniated discs or degeneration of the spine;<br \/>&#8211; Sudden neck movements;<br \/>&#8211; Repetitive tasks;<br \/>&#8211; Heavy physical and manual activities;<br \/>&#8211; Temporomandibular joint changes.<\/p><p><strong>However, it is possible that cervicalgia is a secondary symptom of other pathology, such as:<\/strong><br \/>&#8211; Cervical spondylolisthesis;<br \/>&#8211; Ankylosing spondylitis;<br \/>&#8211; Arthrosis of the spine;<br \/>&#8211; Bone infections;<br \/>&#8211; Benign or malignant tumors.<\/p><p><strong>BENEFITS:<\/strong><br \/>&#8211; Increases lymphatic drainage and improves blood circulation;<br \/>&#8211; Relaxes the muscles,<br \/>&#8211; Improves range of motion;<br \/>&#8211; Improves mobility;<br \/>&#8211; Increases flexibility;<br \/>&#8211; Increases the production of endorphins that work as the body&#8217;s natural painkiller;<br \/>&#8211; Decrease pain, edema in a certain area\/extremity, stress indexes, increasing the sense of well-being;<br \/>&#8211; Increases the production of oxytocin, dopamine, and serotonin that enhance the feeling of well-being and pleasure;<br \/>&#8211; Increases blood circulation;<br \/>&#8211; Increases the quality of sleep;<br \/>&#8211; Reduces tendon inflammation;<br \/>&#8211; Attenuates the pain associated with contractures and tendonitis;<br \/>&#8211; Reduces fatigue and tiredness.<\/p><p><strong>Duration of the session: 45 minutes.<\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<main class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-154e379\" data-id=\"154e379\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-647fc51 elementor-widget__width-initial elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"647fc51\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<style>\/*!
