An intense massage around the shoulder and neck area might feel great...
...but you could wind up regretting it. Hard pressure applied to the upper shoulder can result in nerve injury, according to Mayo Clinic researchers. There is a tiny nerve in there called the spinal accessory nerve. It travels through the back side of your upper shoulder – and compression to that nerve could injure it. If it hurts so good – say something! If you experience pain or shoulder weakness after a massage – let your physician know about it.
