Patients with neck stiffness can be relieved by massage, often by pressing on the midpoint between the line connecting the large vertebrae and the peak of the shoulder, known as the shoulder well point, or, if dizziness is present, by massaging the depression between the neck and the hairline behind the ear, known as the Fengchi point. In addition, it is important to keep the neck warm to avoid aggravating the condition by catching a cold. If the stiffness and pain are severe, it is advisable to seek regular treatment in hospital.
