Take care of your neck,
so you can do more of what you love.
Most neck pain doesn't start in the neck.
Hours of screens quietly reshape the upper body. The head drifts forward, the shoulders round in, and the neck is left carrying weight it was never designed to hold alone.
Screen time
Long hours at a monitor pull the head forward — every inch adds roughly ten pounds of load to the neck.
Phone posture
Looking down at a phone bends the neck into "tech neck" — the most common posture strain of the decade.
Rounded shoulders
Shoulders that curl inward tighten the chest and drag the neck and upper traps into constant tension.
Sleep position
The wrong pillow height or stomach sleeping keeps the neck twisted for hours — and stiff by morning.
Stress & jaw clenching
Stress settles into the neck, shoulders, and jaw as a constant, low-grade muscular guard.
One-sided load
Carrying a bag on the same shoulder or cradling a phone builds tension unevenly through the neck.
Made for the modern neck.

Trigger Point Therapy is a targeted treatment designed to relieve neck pain, shoulder tension, tech neck, and chronic muscle tightness. At AVY SPA in Palo Alto, we apply precise pressure to trigger points (muscle knots) in the neck, shoulders, and upper back to help reduce pain, improve mobility, restore circulation, and support long-lasting neck pain relief. Trigger Point Therapy is often combined with neck acupressure and gentle stretching for the best results.

By releasing tight trigger points in the neck, shoulders, and upper back, it helps reduce pain, improve circulation, restore neck mobility, and relieve the pulling sensation often caused by long hours at a computer, poor posture, or repetitive stress. Many guests experience improved comfort and range of motion after treatment.

Tech neck is the strain caused by looking down at phones and screens for hours — the forward head position can add up to several extra pounds of load on the neck for every inch it drifts. Our tech neck massage releases the overworked muscles and helps restore the neck's natural line.

We also provide simple ergonomic and stretching tips to help maintain longer-lasting neck pain relief between sessions.
