Senior Health Stores has solutions for neck and shoulder pain, chronic neck pain, and will help you take care of your pain in the neck and upper back.
Most people will experience neck and shoulder pain at some point in their lives.
Neck pain can be acute, meaning it lasts a few hours to a few weeks, or it can be chronic. Neck pain that lasts several weeks or longer is considered chronic neck pain.
Most causes of neck pain aren't serious. Poor posture at work, such as leaning into your computer, and during hobbies, such as hunching over your workbench, are common causes of neck pain.
But sometimes neck pain can signify something more serious. If your neck pain is so severe that you can't touch your chin to your chest despite a few days of self-care, seek immediate medical attention.
Neck pain takes many forms. Signs and symptoms of neck pain may include:
Pain in your neck that may feel sharp or dull;
Stiffness in your neck;
Difficulty going about your daily tasks because of pain or stiffness in your neck
Shoulder pain in addition to neck pain;
In some cases Most neck pain is associated with poor posture on top of age-related wear and tear.
To help prevent neck pain and help promote neck pain relief, keep your head centered over your spine, so gravity works with your neck instead of against it. Some simple changes in your daily routine may help. Consider trying to:
Take frequent breaks if you drive long distances or work long hours at your computer. Keep your head back, over your spine, to reduce neck strain. Try to avoid clenching your teeth.
Adjust your desk, chair and computer so the monitor is at eye level. Knees should be slightly lower than hips. Use your chair's armrests.
Avoid tucking the phone between your ear and shoulder when you talk. If you use the phone a lot, get a headset.
Stretch frequently if you work at a desk. Shrug your shoulders up and down. Pull your shoulder blades together and then relax. Pull your shoulders down while leaning your head to each side to stretch your neck muscles.
Balance your base. Stretching the front chest wall muscles and strengthening the muscles around the shoulder blade and back of the shoulder can promote a balanced base of support for the neck.
Avoid sleeping on your stomach. This position puts stress on your neck. Choose a pillow that supports the natural curve of your neck.

Posture Pump Elliptical Back Roller Model 2000
Designed by a doctor for relief of painful back symptoms and sore neck stiffness. When the spine has lost its curved shape, the discs are compressed and rich lubricating fluid is unable to penetrate. This causes premature aging in the form of stiff dry joints. When the spine is properly curved, nutrient-rich fluid is "imbibed" or drawn into the discs by their "sponge-like bellows action," promoting spinal balance and joint wearability.
Relieves back stiffness and discomfort
Dual inflation mechanism gradually lifts, stretches and separates the joints
2 Uniquely angled air cells create multi-vectored force and promote disc & joint lubrication.
Built-in Rocking Mechanism allows you to exercise your abdominal muscles while shaping and stretching the lower back.
The manufacturer highly recommends that you contact a health care professional for personal evaluationand training on the use of all Posture Pump Products.

CONTRAINDICATIONS
Cervical decompression is not recommended for treatment of recent acute injuries such as sprains or strains, severe torticollis (or stiff neck), or acute neck pain. When there is inflammation present, efforts must be made to reduce the inflammation with cryotherapy, interferential cold laser or other such treatment. Then decompression can gradually be applied!
The Neck Decompressor™ applies a very comfortable stretch on the cervical spine. So comfortable, patients can withstand a greater amount of decompression making it the most effective cervical decompression unit on the market.
The reason that it is extremely comfortable is because the force that is applied to all areas of the head. The head contact with the unit is almost like laying ones head on a pillow. The Neck Decompressor™ allows the patient to have complete control of their treatment by providing an air bulb to release the air.
Due to the increased comfort, the amount of decompressive force can be increased dramatically to improve results. With continued use, the Neck-Decompressor™ can also help to widen degenerated disc spaces. By increasing the height of the cervical disc spaces, it doesnot only improve pain and other symptoms – it can increase the flexibility of the cervical spine.

are breathable, have no toxic offgassing, and are designed to facilitate optimal alignment, breathing, and true comfort. Japanese buckwheat pillows support the neck, help eliminate your pain in the neck, and are moldable to conform to whatever shape you need at any particular time. These pillows can help realign the neck which gets pushed too far forward from chair sitting. Overstuffed western pillows tend to push the head too far forward which may "feel" comfortable but is actually maintaining a forward jutting head (lardosis). In this case, BIGGER is not BETTER. For side-sleeping, stack two pillows together or fold your rectangular pillow in half. Also, to cut out noise, place a pillow on each side of the head, covering your ears.
