Nackenmuskeln von Patienten mit chronischen Nackenschmerzen – meist sind es Patientinnen – sind steifer als die von Menschen ohne Schmerzen. Das ist das Gefühl vieler Therapeuten und Patienten. Doch ist das wirklich so? Die Patienten wünschen sich eine Massage und sind erleichtert, wenn der Therapeut in die Muskulatur greift. Dieser verfolgt das Ziel, den schmerzhaft erhöhten Tonus der Nackenmuskeln zu senken, oder? Ein Blick in die Tiefen der Muskulatur.
