Hi Veronica,

You can get those heat packs from some chemists and physio's. I have had the same problem throughout my PG. I find stretching also works, rolling the shoulders, neck from side to side (ear to shoulder) type stuff. I also had a nurse I worked with show me this thing with a ball. You place a tennis ball (or you can get these spikey balls from Rebel which are even better!) between your shoulder blades and a wall. You slowly do swuats up and down which causes the ball to roll and helps alleviate tension. Also move from side to side. I LOVE that one!

HTH
