I have tension headaches a lot. Actually had one when I found this video. Other videos didn’t help. This actually got rid of the knot and the headache. Thanks!!
I just want you to know that you have helped me tremendously tonight. I’ve had neck pain for about 3 days that has caused an ongoing headache and I just did this massage and GOT SO MUCH RELIEF. Thank you so much for sharing!!!
This video never fails to help me whenever my neck pain acts up (and it seems to act up more often of late). You are a sweet angel of healing dear Rachel. You help so many people around the globe ! God bless you with good health, peace and happiness. Sending you lots of love from India.
Your message means the world to me. I'm so glad I've been able to help your neck pain, and I'm so grateful for your kind words. Sending love back to you from the U.S.!
Thank you so much. Your kind voice and the help for the massage helped me release lot of tension, not only from the body but also emotionally. I started crying like a baby. Thank you, really.
Thank you, Rachel Richards, I'm currently awaiting my results from an MRI... (yesterday)...I appreciate the response as I know how busy you must be, keep up the good work.
Rachel RIchards self massage videos have helped me greatly, especially this one. I have muscle cramping throughout my body and the facility where I was getting weekly Osteo Manipulative Therapy stopped my weekly sessions a few weeks after my PCP left. I was very fortunate to find Rachel's videos and my neck area has improved while using her techniques over the past 5 weeks. I will leave more comments on other videos that have helped me. Thank you so much !!!
Thank you so much for making this video, I just got whiplash and a concussion from a skiing accident three days ago and this has really helped relieve my headache and neck tension today! Will keep watching this video and doing the massage the next few days and again thank you! ❤
I have scoliosis and painted a bookshelf last night and woke up with extreme neck and shoulder pain. Can't afford a massage right now so I found your videos for this and shoulder pain out of desperation. I've never felt my shoulders & neck ease up so much. I thought I was built with a permanent brick wall around my neck and shoulders. I'm so relieved. I'm still a bit sore but this was soooo much help for me. Thank you SO much! 🙏Saving up for my next massage now. 💗
Thank you so much for the video. I have always joyfully paid a professional message therapist to alleviate stress and anxiety from the neck and shoulder area. But...with COVID-19 I have not been able to go. The stress of work, anxieties have not stopped. Being a 15 year Vegan (Organic foods help). Your video is a God send! Keep up the great work...it makes a difference in people lives. New subscriber....
I'm so glad it helps, Deborah! You might want to check out this one as well, specifically designed for osteoarthritis of the neck: ua-cam.com/video/FyxkGwh_DHA/v-deo.html
Great video, thank you so much! I have had a few vertigo attacks, probably from my neck... Have seen a PT and chiropractor and these neck massages made wonders. However I want to continue doing these to make sure vertigo is not coming back.
So glad it helped! Yes, neck issues and vertigo often coexist. A tight neck can put pressure on blood vessels and nerves that innervate the head. Thanks so much for sharing!
Love this video. Such a wonderful massage. The tension in my nech and shoulders just vanished. I loved the eat she demonstrates. God I feel so light and happy honestly. Loved it. Great job mam❤
i usually never comment under videos but this video was just amazing! i was dealing with some very uncomfortable neck and shoulder pain from the stress this week and this just relieved it after one watch. thank you ❤
Although this is an old video, it really helped me today. The last three days I have been suffering from headache and feeling tired and horribly drained by my pain in my neck. My massage therapist is not available and this helped me so much, I think especially the „pulling apart“ of the tissue.
Thank you so much!!! I’ve had chronic neck tension ever since COVID 19x Your videos has helped my neck tension in just 10 mins! I’ll be doing them regularly in between my massages 🙏🏻
I'm so glad to hear that, Darina! And you are not alone - so many have experienced increased neck tension and pain since the pandemic, myself included!
I've tried a couple of self-massage videos but yours has been a game changer! The difference in my neck is amazing, I'll definitely be trying to make this part of my daily routine.
Thank you soooooo much. After so many videos and exercises. Your techniques are most effective. I immediately experienced the benefits. Jonathan from South Africa
Thank you so much, Rachel! My myofascial shoulder and neck pain is back! In fact, my muscles of the shoulders, back, and stiff jaw go together! Why the jaw? My right jaw feels like a big knot and my jaw resists wanting to open! I have facial nerve pain with it too! I notice that after I eat my jaws relax for a while. My posture is bad and I find my shoulders up to my ears a lot and i consciously release that stress! It's a bad habit from anxiety. Thanks for these tips! I will be doing them! My shoulders, head and face are really suffering!
Thanks so much for sharing! I'm so sorry for the delayed response - I just saw your comment. I'm glad you found my video helpful. It sounds like you could benefit much more by seeing a skilled licensed massage therapist. You can find one in your area here: www.healthprofs.com/cam.
Oh, wow. Thank you Rachel. I carry an awful lot of tension in my neck, that I don't know how to relieve. Just one attempt at this made such a huge difference. I look forward to seeing the results from doing this daily.
I commented on a shorter video you do on occipital release. This 11 minute video is great for those stubborn multi-day migraines. It’s hard for me to do the techniques in this video due to some other health issues, but I do them as best as I can and sometimes go through the routine a couple of times to get relief. Many thanks for your work helping us to help ourselves.
I'm so glad it helps, Jeanie! In case you haven't seen it yet, I also have a self-massage specifically for migraines: ua-cam.com/video/x4W4VhU8BMY/v-deo.html
SO glad I rememebered your videos! Saved my day! Can't believe the difference, and how quick it was to fix! Much better then just pushing through and being grumpy!
Rachel Richards Massage Hi Rachel, really love your videos! What would you recommend for really sore hand muscles? (I draw and sew a lot) - I think it's the "thenar eminence" muscle...
Rachel i really have to thank this felt Amazing i had a moment where i felt breathing so deep that i teared up just a bit, the tension in the neck has been so strong i have problem sometimes breathing. The most Amazing was at 4.30, some ants run tingling my neck. you're wonderful
Had a really stressful day on Saturday, it’s now Tuesday, going for a professional massage tomorrow but in the mean time I’m miserable with neck and back tension! This has helped so much. Took my first parasympathetic deep breath since Saturday after this! Before that they were all quite forced
thank you rachel. your videos are wonderfully helpful. you are very soothing in your approach, showing kindness and vulnerability as well as being informed and clear in your instructions. I am almost feeling glad that i have had neck pain because i discovered your videos as a result and you are teaching me about more than just tending to the pain in my neck, you are helping me to become curious about the relationship i have with my body in terms of what i feels physically (sensation) and not just what i think, intuit or emotionally feel. Thank you so much for taking the time to make these videos :)
Wow - thank you so much for that wonderful feedback! I'm so happy to know that you are benefiting from my videos. Your lovely message incentivizes me to keep going :)
Thank you for this video at the perfect time. I’ve been in such pain from arthritis in my neck….was awake most of the night. My pain is finally starting to subside, thanks to you Rachel♥️
Another great treat. Thank you! I especially enjoyed the very last part where you slided the fingers outward from the middle of the neck. I can still feel it right now.
I have constant neck tightness which occasionally makes me dizzy. Especially right under my skull. Such a sensitive area for me. I find these difficult to do on myself because I tense up but it’s very helpful. Self massage is now part of my weekly routine but love it.
I'm so happy to hear that! I know it's difficult to keep your shoulders and arms relaxed. Deep breathing can help, and also taking breaks to shake out your arms and roll your shoulders.
Helped me immediately. Sadly, I can't go to regular massage therapy at this point in time, but this still made me feel a million times better after a long week of working on the computer. Thank you!
Can we appreciate that she is still liking comments in a five year old video
Ikr
That's either rather sad or good depending on how u look at it
I never thought I could feel these sensations. . ...I've been hopeless .....this video is one of my favorites. Thanks you
I have tension headaches a lot. Actually had one when I found this video. Other videos didn’t help. This actually got rid of the knot and the headache. Thanks!!
the one video i keep coming back to, a life saver
That means the world to me ❤️

It feels so nice getting rid of that tension. I didn’t even know I could feel this free to move. My neck feels much better after this 😊
