Just tried having my wife massage it but it didn`t help much.

I had this before and traveled down into my elbow........felt like I was gonna` drop light dumbells on certain exercises.

For an example,my best at flyes at the time was 70 pounds for 5 reps,but I could only get one rep with a pair of 45 pounders as I thought I might drop the left dumbell on my face.

I`m gonna` use the Nautilus neck machine daily very light coupled with massage to see if I can get it worked out.

Have you ever tried or considered chiropractic treatment?
Everybody has their own opinions/beliefs regarding it, but my own experiences over the last four years have made me a firm believer in its effectiveness.

Soft tissue and myofascial work also does wonders for many trainers.
Also, one of the newer rages is ART - Active Release Therapy; there have been clinics/practitioners popping up all over the place as of late.

I’ll qualify my backing of chiropractors by saying this: not all are created equal - again, speaking from experience.
But IMO, it’s well worth finding a good one.
