Are you experiencing neck pain in Phoenix? If so, you may be surprised to learn that there are a variety of different situations that can lead to neck pain. He is a look at just a few of them.

Poor posture can lead to neck pain while engaging in a variety of activities, including watching television, working on the computer, reading a book, riding a train or gardening.
