We all know how painful it is to wake up with a stiff neck. The intense ache makes it almost impossible to move the head even the slightest bit. To spend a day with neck pain is really annoying and it makes even the simplest task seem formidable.

Neck pain, at times, might also be accompanied by numbness, headache, stiffness, and difficulty while eating. Most of the time the pain is either caused due to bad sleeping postures, tension, stress or bad body postures. Here are some easy ways to get relief from the terrible neck pain at home:

The first thing you need to do, if you wake up with severe neck pain, is to stretch a little bit. Moving your head gently will increase the blood flow in a particular area and reduce inflammation. You may move your head side to side or nod slowly a few times as if you are saying 'yes'.

Nothing is better than warm water with Epsom salt to get rid of the stiff neck. This warm water bath helps to relax and soothe the tightened muscles, while the salt helps to reduce inflammation and improve the blood flow.
