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.
The muscles in your neck feel hard, tight, and painful. When the muscles that extend from your shoulders to your head go into spasm, the spasms may even cause headaches. You may have tender spots in your neck, sometimes called trigger points, that cause pain in other places.
