Neck pain and cervical tension in Castelldefels
The neck holds the head up all day and is one of the first areas where load settles. Joan Jiménez, registered naturopath (FENACO 3802), assesses the cervical area together with the shoulders and the base of the skull, because the tension is rarely isolated, and works manually to recover the lost range.
Signs we see in consultation
Cervical load is easy to recognise. People who come in usually describe:
- Loss of range when turning the head to one side.
- A hardened neck on waking.
- Tension rising from the trapezius to the base of the skull.
- Discomfort accompanied by a loaded-head sensation.
- A recurring need to stretch or force the neck for relief.
Why it settles in
The cervical area pays for the sustained postures of daily life: the head tilted over a phone, days at the computer, night-time support that does not hold, or the habit of clenching the jaw when demands rise.
All that load turns into permanently contracted neck and trapezius muscles. When it is not released, the tissue hardens, loses range and the tension tends to spread toward the shoulders and the cranial area.
Approach and method
Joan explores the neck, the base of the skull, the trapezius and the jaw as one system, because cervical load is almost always held by several structures at once.
Work with TNDR (Natural Unblocking Regenerating Technique) is manual, progressive and especially measured here: the tissue is released following its own response, gaining range without ever forcing the joint.
An integrative service, not just a massage
Joan does not work with a single technique. Depending on what the assessment shows, he combines TNDR integrative massage in one session with decontracting work, facial and TMJ work, foot reflexology, biomagnetism, reiki or Access Bars. The combination is decided case by case, with no closed protocols.

The consultation in Castelldefels
The session does not start on the table, but by listening. First we go through what you notice, since when and in which situations it appears; then a manual assessment reads the state of the tissue and locates where the load is actually held.
What you notice, since when and what makes it worse.
Manual reading of the tissue to locate the load.
No protocols or fixed timings: we work what needs working.
