The end result in this scenario is the
tight neck and shoulders with active trigger points, as suffered
by so many desk workers when these
muscles work overtime.
In turn, the
muscle tension may be caused
by physical or emotional stress, eyestrain, head and
neck postural strain,
neck injuries, mis - aligned jaw or teeth, too -
tight headbands, sleep deprivation, hypertension, cervical (
neck) arthritis, or any combination of these factors.
