What’s the most common cause of upper back pain? Muscles!
Upper back muscles get strained from being stretched and overused. Then they get cranky and start complaining.
You might feel the complaint as muscle strain, a headache or neck ache, a muscle spasm near your shoulder blade or “knots” in your upper back.
But guess what?
You CAN get rid of upper back pain. 🙂 I have seen it happen over and over.
Once you understand WHY you have pain in your upper back you can start taking steps to STOP hurting.
You have to take steps.
Other people may be able to help on your road to natural recovery but your good health–and happy body–are in your hands.
