Tech Neck from a Home Office Laptop: Massage and Chiropractic in Arcadia
Why does a home office day leave the neck and shoulders feeling tight by midafternoon?
A laptop on a kitchen table or a low desk puts the screen below eye level. The head drifts forward to follow the screen. The shoulders round forward with it, and a dining chair gives the low back little support through a long call block.
Tech neck is our friendly name for that pattern. The name is simple, and the setup behind it is usually simple to spot once you look for it.
Start with the screen. Raise the laptop so the top of the screen is near eye level, and use a separate keyboard and mouse when you can. Keep your feet flat on the floor. Change your position between calls, and look across the room each time you stand up.
Those changes help the day go better, and regular care helps when the tight pattern keeps returning week after week. If you’re feeling the effects of desk work at home, massage time at our clinic works the neck, shoulders, and upper back together during one session. A chiropractic visit can be booked on its own or alongside massage time.
A 30 minute massage is $65. A 60 minute massage is $130. An adjustment is $85.
Prices are current as of November 2026 and are subject to change.
Weekday times are open in the morning block, 8am to 12pm, and in the afternoon block, 2pm to 6pm.
