Hi Rosemary & Rollin: I have been taking Tai Chi as a low impact form of excercise. The wonderful lady who instructs the class is also a Reick Master. She has laid hands on my neck and shoulders. She is somewhat concerned how tight they are. She said something about acupuncure. That is very interesting. Keep posting about it please, so I know how it is working for you. Good Luck TTFN Gina
