I guess one day I’ll have to tell the story of how I fixed my spinal injuries all by myself without medical assistance 😝 I want to make sure I don’t give any bad advice though so you’ll have to wait til I make any of it public. Feel free to ask me in private if you are having some minor issues though (warning: I’m not a professional anything)

Wait what!!!! Now that you said it, have been having some neck pains especially when I'm in the car. And "unprofessional advice* ? 😁
I got neck pain from exercising, and bending my neck since I use my phone for work. How to handle it🤔
The most general advice I can give is to massage any and all muscles and find the ones that feel sore, and keep massaging them. Pain from massaging muscles usually isn't dangerous and the you'll find you had way more problems then you thought if you look hard enough.
The more specific advice is, find a really sturdy wall and a lacrosse ball and put it between your spine and your shoulder blade and look for painful spots. also massage your upper arms and chest to find points that need work. If none of that works, look around your body to find points that hurt. Hands and feet sometimes release stuff in completely unrelated parts of the body. I do fingers and toes twice a day.
(not an expert, I take no responsibility for anything ever)
then I'm going to start with massage of my neck and feet
You can search for "Small intestine meridian" and follow that line both with your hand and the ball against the wall. There are 12 lines like this, but is the one that usually relieves my neck problems. If there are headaches, you might wanna check "gallbladder meridian" which is a bitch, very very complicated
also be a little careful with the side and front of the neck until you get used to it, there are important blood vessels there. Focus on muscles. Sore like a workout is good! Sore that leads to relaxation is good. PAIN that has no release is bad. Once again, I take no responsibility for anything ever.
the sore from workout is a good soar? 🤔 Well it kinda healed itself so it's a good sign
I'm really shocked at the amount of pressure my body could take with 0 injury, on 95% of it's surface. The only time I've ever gotten hurt from massage were with two idiot practitioners, one pulling on tendons (stupid) and one trying to push the spine forcefully (also stupid)
But not everyone's body condition is the same, and so I can't be sure what to be careful of. Trust your body and don't do anything that feels dangerous to you. Slowly get used to learning what your body is telling you
you get the wrong massage people and you're screwed man I feel your pain
bro you should go into medicine you might actually become a pro at it and maybe find solutions to spinal injuries without much equipments. I think Guru mode has been activated for you
