Neck / Shoulder Pain

Neck and shoulder pain often arises from periods of long sitting, ie a PC, car etc; or sometimes after a carrying, lifting, pulling etc. Anatomically the arms hang out from the neck. This means any work you do with your arms could potentially upset your neck; or if the neck has been injured in any way, it could cause a pain in the shoulder or the arm.
