Before I show you that I had a few people ask me, ” I do have to tightness throughout my upper body, and I do hurt my neck, How do I know is it chronic neck pain.” There are many muscles throughout your upper that can hold tension and focused on like the rhomboids and traps. They play a big role but not for keeping a person in a chronic state of repetition. They get targeted because they are well known and superficial. In the video before I speak about scalenes.

Scalenes

Have a referral pain or a tightness pattern down the arm in the front and the into the chest. Also down the back of the body between the shoulder blades.  This is a common tightness pattern that many have but do not put the clues together. The blame goes to working out or sleeping funny. When it signs of scalenes tightness and more so the stress of the first rib not functioning well.
