Members shared a range of approaches for managing neck pain related to Parkinson's disease, with several noting that muscle relaxants like Baclofen provided some relief, though results varied. Many community members also described using massage, cervical pillows, CBD rubs, heat massagers, and essential oil blends as helpful tools, while one member found that DBS treatment ultimately stopped their head shaking. A recurring theme was that no single solution lasts long, but combining multiple strategies can help take the edge off the pain.
